American: Beyond our Grandest Notions , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 223min
From Chris Matthews, host of MSNBC's Hardball, star of NBC's The Chris Matthews Show, and the best selling author of Now, Let Me Tell You What I Really Think, comes this celebration of the American spirit.Fiercely independent, in love with freedom, convinced we can make it, we are like no other people on earth. We are a people reluctant to fight who become ferocious warriors when threatened or attacked. We are suspicious of governmental power, yet quick to embrace our flag in times of danger. A deeply practical nation, we loom as the world's great optimists. What unites us Americans is not so much language or ethnicity, but a set of distinct notions about ourselves that comprise our American-ness. The self-made country. The constant rebel. The reluctant warrior. The lone hero. The pioneer. The optimist. You see them in the movies we make, the books we write, the history we have lived. What stirred the souls of our ancestors two centuries ago - and all the generations in between - still does.In American, Matthews presents a portrait of a country that enters the world arena armed with an extremely potent weapon: the collective notions we carry of America at its best. It's a picture of more than just a nation challenged but a people ready and eager to prevail. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Chris Matthews.

Some of us are optimists by nature; others are pessimists. Some are unfailingly happy and outgoing while others may seem depressed and shy. Philosophers, psychiatrists, psychologists, and a wide range of scientists have been working for centuries to shed light on why we are the way we are. In modern times, Dr. Carol Dweck is one of the most influential scientific minds when it comes to human thought. Her work over many decades has led to what she calls "mindset theory" - that all people have either a fixed mindset or a growth mindset. Her book, Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, explores what it means to have either a fixed or growth mindset; how your mindset affects your work, relationships, and success in general; whether organizations can also be said to have mindsets; and how you can change your mindset if you don't like your current one.

Positive Thinking: 4 Easy Ways to Successfully Live a Positive Lifestyle Using the Power of Positive Psychology, Relationship with Others, and Self-Affirmation , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 38min
Life is beautiful. There are a lot of things to enjoy and to look forward to. A sunny day reminds us of the brighter things that await us. However, life may not always be beautiful. There are also dark days when we just cannot seem to appreciate the coming of another sunny day. There are cold nights that wrap us with sadness and loneliness. There are a lot of problems that come our way, and when everything has piled up we no longer know what to do. As a result, we tend to look at things negatively. Therein lies the problem. Negative thinking may trigger a downward spiral. To keep negative thoughts away, you should learn how to focus on the positive instead. What is positive thinking? Positive thinking, or optimism, is a mental attitude or perspective wherein you approach unpleasant things and events in a productive and positive way. You always look forward to the best and not to the worst. Positive thinking allows us to look at the brighter side of things. Even when everything seems so wrong and impossible to fix, optimists have the mindset that they can get through their obstacles in one way or another. This book will share with you four essential ways in which you can be a positive thinker. Because of the many problems that we are bound to encounter, thinking positively can be very difficult. This is natural. It truly takes some time and effort before one can successfully turn himself or herself into a positive thinker: The first step highlights the role of positive psychology and how it works. The second step is concerned with how your relationships with other people affect your outlook on life. The third step teaches you to change your lifestyle and orient it towards a more positive one. Finally, the last step tells you the role of positive affirmation in your desire to be a positive thinker. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Robert Gazy.

The Death of Money: The Coming Collapse of the International Monetary System , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 793min
The next financial collapse will resemble nothing in history...Deciding upon the best course to follow will require comprehending a minefield of risks, while poised at a crossroads, pondering the death of the dollar. The international monetary system has collapsed three times in the past hundred years, in 1914, 1939, and 1971. Each collapse was followed by a period of tumult: war, civil unrest, or significant damage to the stability of the global economy. Now James Rickards, the acclaimed author of Currency Wars, shows why another collapse is rapidly approaching - and why this time, nothing less than the institution of money itself is at risk. The American dollar has been the global reserve currency since the end of the Second World War. If the dollar fails, the entire international monetary system will fail with it. No other currency has the deep, liquid pools of assets needed to do the job. Optimists have always said, in essence, that there's nothing to worry about - that confidence in the dollar will never truly be shaken, no matter how high our national debt or how dysfunctional our government. But in the last few years, the risks have become too big to ignore. While Washington is gridlocked and unable to make progress on our long-term problems, our biggest economic competitors - China, Russia, and the oil-producing nations of the Middle East - are doing everything possible to end US monetary hegemony. The potential results: Financial warfare. Deflation. Hyperinflation. Market collapse. Chaos. Rickards offers a bracing analysis of these and other threats to the dollar. The fundamental problem is that money and wealth have become more and more detached. Money is transitory and ephemeral, and it may soon be worthless if central bankers and politicians continue on their current path. But true wealth is permanent and tangible, and it has real value worldwide. The author shows how everyday citizens who save and i ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sean Pratt.
