ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Oliver Burkeman (born 1975) is a British author and journalist, formerly writing the weekly column This Column Will Change Your Life for the newspaper The Guardian. In 2021, he published Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals, a self-help book on the philosophy and psychology of time management and happiness.
Oliver Burkeman is a British author and journalist who writes about psychology, happiness, and time management. He is best known for his books Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals and The Antidote: Happiness for People Who Can’t Stand Positive Thinking, as well as his former weekly column for The Guardian, This Column Will Change Your Life. He also writes a newsletter called The Imperfectionist. He lives in the North York Moors.
ABOUT 4,000 WEEKS :
Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals is a 2021 non-fiction book written by British author Oliver Burkeman.
The title draws from the premise that "the average human lifespan is absurdly, terrifyingly, insultingly short... Assuming you live to be eighty, you’ll have had about four thousand weeks." Four Thousand Weeks is a philosophical exploration of the modern relationship with time, along with how humans can make the most of a finite existence.
The book was a New York Times bestseller.
4000 weeks is a book that challenges the conventional wisdom of time management and productivity. It argues that humans have a limited and finite amount of time on earth, and that trying to do everything, be everything, and have everything is a recipe for frustration and unhappiness. Instead of seeking more control, efficiency, and optimization, the book suggests embracing the reality of our limitations, the inevitability of trade-offs, and the value of uncertainty, imperfection, and play. Drawing on insights from philosophy, psychology, history, and literature, the book offers a fresh and liberating perspective on how to live well in 4,000 weeks.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
David Goggins (born February 17, 1975) is an American ultramarathon runner, ultra-distance cyclist, triathlete, public speaker, and author. He is a retired United States Navy SEAL member who served in the Iraq War. His first memoir, Can't Hurt Me, was released in 2018 and a sequel Never Finished in 2022.
ABOUT CAN'T HURT ME :
New York Times Best Seller
Over 4 million copies sold
For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare -- poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a U.S. Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force Tactical Air Controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events, inspiring Outside magazine to name him "The Fittest (Real) Man in America."
In Can't Hurt Me, he shares his astonishing life story and reveals that most of us tap into only 40% of our capabilities. Goggins calls this The 40% Rule, and his story illuminates a path that anyone can follow to push past pain, demolish fear, and reach their full potential.

The Story Behind Crush it!
Everything has changed. The social media revolution has irreversibly changed the way we live our lives and conduct our business. There are billions of dollars in advertising moving online, waiting to be claimed by whoever can build the best content and communities. Despite this change, most people keep working at jobs that don’t make them happy and businesses continue to ignore the major marketing and public relations benefits that can be found online.

Myth #3: I’m happy at my job so this book is irrelevant to me.

ABOUT HOW TO BE A CAPITALIST WITHOUT ANY CAPITAL:
"Instant Wall Street Journal Bestseller!
You don't need to be Ivy League educated, have money, be creative, or even have an idea to get rich. You just need to be willing to break the rules.
At nineteen, I founded a software company with $119 in my bank account. Five years later, it was valued at $10.5 million. I don't consider myself exceptionally brilliant. I just realized something few people know: You don't need lots of money or an original idea to get really rich.
Now, I make more than $100,000 in passive income every month, while also running my own private equity firm and hosting The Top Entrepreneurs podcast, which has more than 10 million downloads. This book will show you how I went from college dropout to member of the New Rich. And I'm holding nothing back. You'll see my tax returns, my profit and loss statements, my email negotiations when buying and selling companies.
It's time to forget your grandfather's advice. I'll teach you how to be a modern opportunist--investor, entrepreneur, or side hustler--by breaking these four golden rules of the old guard:
1.Focus on one skill: Wrong. Don't cultivate one great skill to get ahead. In today's business world, success goes to the multitaskers.
2.Be unique: Wrong. The way to get rich is not by launching a new idea but by aggressively copying others and then adding your own twist.
3.Focus on one goal: Wrong. Focus instead on creating a system to produce the outcome you want, not just once, but over and over again.
4.Appeal to the masses: Wrong. The masses are broke ($4k average net worth in America?). Let others cut a trail through the jungle so you can peacefully walk in and capitalize on their hard work.
By rejecting these defunct rules and following my unconventional path, you can copy other people's ideas shamelessly, bootstrap a start-up with almost no funding, invest in small local businesses for huge payoffs, and reap all the benefits."

ABOUT TRACTION:
In Traction, serial entrepreneurs Gabriel Weinberg and Justin Mares give startups the tools for generating explosive customer growth
'Anyone trying to break through to new customers can use this smart, ambitious book'
Eric Ries, author of The Lean Startup
Most startups don't fail because they can't build a product. Most startups fail because they can't get traction.
Building a successful company is hard. Smart entrepreneurs know that the key to success isn't the originality of your offering, the brilliance of your team, or how much money you raise. It's how consistently you can grow and acquire new customers.
Traction will teach you the nineteen channels you can use to build a customer base, and offers a three-step framework to figure out which ones will work best for your business. No matter how you apply them, the lessons and examples in Traction will help you create and sustain the growth your business desperately needs.
'Here is the inside scoop, the latest, most specific tactics from the red-hot centre of the Internet marketing universe. From someone who has done it. Twice'

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Cody began his career in sales making a name for himself in the Wireless Industry. What started out as a sales role quickly turned into Sales Leadership ranking 15th overall nationally for Alltel Wireless. From that success, he was requested from the VP of the Southwest to open an Authorized Retailer for Alltel. That created the birth of The Cell Phone Guy, an Alltel Authorized Agent. The Cell Phone Guy quickly became one of the leading retailers within the region for Alltel. With its success and the overall growth of the industry Cody was approached by an investor to purchase his business. This created the opportunity to transition back into the corporate world with Wireless Advocates. Cody once again quickly established himself as a leader within the organization earning District Manager of the Year in back to back years for the entire company. ...
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Winning the Moment is a guide to living the life you want and becoming the person you want to be. In engaging, can’t-put-it-down storytelling, Cody Adent shows how much life has to offer when you change your mindset and focus. As a species, we have preconditioned believes about all facets of life that we never take the time to question. Everyone is in different spectrums of their lives and we don't take enough time to define for ourselves what a win looks like; instead, we take the easy way and let other people define it for us. Therein lies the problem — expectation is the root of disappointment. Life is a gift of many successes but much of our day-to-day lives is a subconscious reflection of our views on winning and losing. Unfortunately, some people develop an unhealthy “win at any cost” relationship with winning. Eternally optimistic and infectiously stubborn, Cody Adent shares lessons from a meteoric career trajectory to inspire motivation and tools to make a pivot in life that brings you closer to living the life you desire.
There are ten times during the day when all of us can make better decisions and appreciate things, you forget how good it feels to be the person you want to be. In Winning the Moment, we learn that winning the moment is about creating a path to enjoy a fulfilling life. Too many people spend too much time searching for what they “should” be doing, versus what they “want” to do.
