Africa: Reframing Political Leadership: Discover new insights and the importance of leading from life through interviews with Africa’s Heads of State by Deanne De Vries

Africa: Reframing Political Leadership: Discover new insights and the importance of leading from life through interviews with Africa’s Heads of State by Deanne De Vries

The “Presidency” has developed into the most powerful institution in the world. These individuals can start and end wars, grow or destroy economies, leave their countries in a better or worse place. The impact of political leadership is felt more acutely in countries that are still developing. This is particularly true across Africa where political leaders are a strong determinant of a country’s sustainable growth trajectory, or lack thereof.

This book offers a rare opportunity to pull back the curtains on political leadership in Africa and hear first hand the real-life political leadership experiences of individuals who were Heads of States in Africa.

Deep Truth: Wisdom of the Masters – Reality and Illusion – Practical Steps to understand the Universe, master the mind, develop intuition, deepen wisdom & live an inspired life! by Jean Walters, DM, DD. CRT

Deep Truth: Wisdom of the Masters – Reality and Illusion – Practical Steps to understand the Universe, master the mind, develop intuition, deepen wisdom & live an inspired life! by Jean Walters, DM, DD. CRT

In this book I reach beyond the material world and string together elements of quantum theory to connect our inner and outer worlds. The outer, material realm being a symbolic representation of the individual’s inner world. The body and mind are vehicles for use in our exploration and growth and we have the opportunity to master these vehicles. Conclusively we live in one field of energy, the quantum field or God. It is what unites us. Each chapter addresses a particular element of our world and provides action steps that lead to mastery. As you use them, your awareness will deepen and expand. The point is that we are indeed spiritual beings experiencing a human life adventure. What we do with that opportunity is of individual consideration. It is important to note that each choice and action has ramifications on all other experiences and beings. That makes each of us a member of a global family with a part to play in the growth and advancement of all. May you enjoy your journey and live in the Light.

About Featured Book: Hey Hue-Man Where Is Our Food? by Toni Crowe

You will laugh out loud at the antics of my cats.
Ten cats have owned me over the last forty years. My home always has at least two cats in it. My furry friends spent years bending me to their will while I thought I was training them. My cats are lifesavers. They are there for me every step of my life. Single, married, working, being a mom, corporate executive, sad, and happy—the soft nose presses against my face, and gentle purrs help me get on with life.

Their antics made my heart and my life lighter. I gathered the sweet, sad, happy, and funny articles I have written about all my loves.
As cat owners know, cats are humans in disguise and wonderful content producers. They scoff at misfortune and my attempts to get the cats to do what I want to do. Cats are self-serving creatures who make us love them.

This book, best-selling author Toni Crowe's seventh, is ideal for your cat-loving friends and family.

reflections of a soul by Ernest Porter

reflections of a soul by Ernest Porter

Reflections of the Soul is a thought-provoking and unconventional book that does not shy away from telling the dark parts of history, which many other writers and traditional textbooks try to hide away. If you want to travel back in time and live a day in a black man’s skin, dare to pick up this book and read the unfiltered history in its soul-shaking reality. However, be warned: this is not a book for the weak of the heart and minds. Porter has put his thoughts so eloquently on the paper that it makes every American question their reality, regardless of their color. This is a collection of Porter’s memoirs, thoughts, and reflections from the time he was growing up in poverty-stricken environments until the day he sat down and wrote this book., but more than that, it is black history in its most unapologetic form.

Your Name by Mike Siver

About Featured Book: Your Name by Mike Siver

If your name is not a concern or value to you, why would it be a concern or mean anything to anyone else? Keep reading to learn how you can build and repair your reputation!

According to the Shakespearean adage, “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose, by any other name, would smell as sweet.”

But “Your Name: How to Build and Repair Your Reputation” by Mike Siver MAC, CDVC, BCBC would beg to differ.

Your name is one of the most powerful assets you have in this life.

Most people will tell you not to be concerned about what others think, but in reality, that advice can only go so far. In this world, appearances may not be everything, but it will certainly inch you closer to what you are striving for.

That is why how we present ourselves, both in person and on social media, is critical in honing a good reputation that can help you in all facets of your life.

And that is what this book is all about.

This book doesn’t tell you to be ingenuine. Rather, it serves to teach you — in the simplest ways — how you can go beyond the bad cards you have been dealt with in life and rise to your full potential as a person who has a lot to give.

In this book, you are taken through every complex problem you face at every stage of your life to better equip you with the tools you need to transform into the best version of yourself.

Here, you will better understand why respecting the name you are given is crucial in bringing faith to self.
Here’s what you’ll get:

Your Name and Its Value: Learn how to take personal responsibility in how you live out your life and value what actions can take you further toward your goals
Your Name and Life Skills: Enlighten yourself with valuable insights about how your choices shape your destiny
Your Name, Children and Youths: Get to know the impact that valuing your name can have on raising your kids to become stronger, wiser, happier people
Your Name and Racism: Become more mindful of how much internalized racism can affect your own perceptions as well as that of the people around you
Your Name and Being an Adult: Learn to walk the talk and become a model member of society by building on your values and integrity
Your Name and Joining the Workforce: Set yourself up for success in your career by learning how to position yourself to write a new and better story
Your Name and Adult Relationships: Build better relationships by learning how your name can be synonymous to trust
Your Name and Marriage: Reach your full potential as a husband or wife, mother or father, man or woman by learning how to work in alignment with purpose, respect, and collaboration
Your Name and Becoming a Parent: Become better parents and raise children worthy of a good name by learning positive involvement strategies
Your Name and Growing Older: Have a better understanding of yourself, where you stand, and what role you need to play in the world to live a life that feels authentic and virtuous

And so much more!

There are not many writings about the integrity of a person’s name, and what is out there is not written as clearly and simply as in “Your Name”.

So, if you’re ready to change an attitude, behavior, reaction, addiction of some sort, or just become a new reinvented person, this book is for you!

Survivability: Confronting the Unprecedented Risks of Today’s Geo-Poli-Cyber™ Threatened World to Competitively Thrive in the 21st Century by Khaled Fattal

Survivability: Confronting the Unprecedented Risks of Today’s Geo-Poli-Cyber™ Threatened World to Competitively Thrive in the 21st Century by Khaled Fattal

In 2020,the COVID-19 pandemic exposed western democracies’ systemic failure to prepare for a precedented threat. This cost too many lives that could have been saved. Moreover, it exposed grave malfunctions in the current global world order—and its economic, legislative, regulative, and democratic models and institutions. It also crystalized that cyber security defenses and designs accepted as gospel are no longer fit for the purposes of defending the nation, businesses, and protecting the citizen.

Consider governmental failures to prepare for a pandemic they were warned about. Will yours be ready for cyber terrorism? Election meddling? Fake news? How about sinister exploitations of IOT, AI, and quantum computing? Overall, is your government prepared to mitigate Geo-Poli-Cyber™ attacks? This book explores those certainties and new paths forward.

In this new era, safeguarding nation-states, organizations, and citizens has less to do with cyber security . . . it has everything to do with survivability.
