This quintessential handbook exposes the x-factor, that extra something, which unleashes each individual's full potential. There is an abundance of humor and and enlightenment in this audiobook. Each one of the 16-chapters in the audiobook focuses on a different attribute demonstrated by outliers. The chapter topics include humility, failure, persistence, preparation, communication, imperturbability, tolerating risk, kindness, learning, optimism, perspective, indefatigability, efficiency, integrity, intuition and being one of a kind. John writes about great outliers from the past, such as Ray Kroc, Dr. Seuss, Fred Astaire, Theodore Roosevelt, Captain Chelsey "Sully" Sullenberger and more. John also incorporates stories of the accomplishments of everyday people who broke the boundaries of the ordinary by demonstrating a specific characteristic of an outlier. As a serial student, an indefatigable change agent and a multidisciplinary entrepreneur, John has studied the traits and qualities of extraordinary individuals for over three decades and experienced his own successes and failures. Ingredients of Outliers is a compilation of thoughts, tips and techniques that will guide you toward finding the ingredients in the "secret sauce" that makes an individual go from average to extraordinary and will inspire you to step outside your comfort zone to join the ranks of the outliers. ungekürzt.

    His father was an investigator who was murdered. Matthias Jones became an athlete and coach, but he solved his father's murder. Hamilton College on the coast of New Hampshire hired him to coach sports, but getting into murder investigations remains his passion. He knows the cops and the district attorney Herbert Lane hates his guts. He's best buds with Cocoa Stefani, a major underworld character and a good friend of parish priest, Father Jim Gallagher. Jones' persistence gains him the upper hand over the cops and the DA - and the murderer. Mathias Jones's longtime friend Leo Crowley is found dead under a concrete foundation at the Applegate Development in Hamilton, New Hampshire. Bonner Development's unsavory owner Bobby Bonner becomes an immediate suspect because of his activities around the time of Leo's murder. The belligerent attitude of Bonner's construction superintendent Scott Gleason confronts Jones and Cocoa Stefani as they delve into the murder. Dennis Cruchek, who lured Leo out to the site, has disappeared, and Kim Rose, a tall blonde, is seemingly deeply involved in the development. Watching over the development is the pugnacious Red Kroc, a Bonner worker on the site who will pick a fight with anyone. As always District Attorney Herbert Lane tries to block Jones' efforts. Jones finds love with his friend Frannie McShane but needs counseling from Father Gallagher when fate takes a turn for the worse. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Robert P. Fitton.

    The word odyssey refers to a journey or a trip. An odyssey can be either a literal or figurative journey. It is always a writer’s goal to take his or her audience on a journey. This book is the second edition of Odyssey which is a collection of Meredith Coleman McGee’s writings from 1994 to 2018. The book includes poems, speeches, articles, and a leadership study comparing the leadership styles of Ray Kroc (McDonald’s), Sam Walton (Walmart), and Dave Thomas (Wendy's) with 12 business leaders from the southern United States. I have known Meredith Coleman McGee for over 10 years; our mothers are long-time friends. Meredith Coleman McGee is a writer, publisher, acquisition editor, and community activist promoting literacy and writing in her community. Meredith is the embodiment of the Kwanzaa principles: Kujichagulia, self-determination; and Kuumba, creativity. She defines herself and as a publisher she helps others define, defend, and develop themselves. Her activism is all about leaving her community better than she found it. She is committed to not only being a creative force herself but also helps others harness their creative energies. She is an active member and supporter of our book club, SANKOFA Reading Group.  Odyssey is inspired in part by her rich family legacy bestowed to her by her maternal great-grandmother, Roxie Hickman Patterson, her maternal uncle, James Meredith (the first African American to attend the University of Mississippi), and her mother, Hazel Meredith Coleman Hall.Odyssey’s poetry is based on family experiences, personal pain, and African American history. The listener learns about trials and accomplishments of Meredith Coleman McGee’s extended family, her ancestors, her parents, her sister, her nieces, and historical figures such as Congressman John Roy Lynch.In addition to poetry, Odyssey contains speeches and articles written by Meredith Coleman McGee.

    At age 90 Jack Smiley wasn't thrilled with the community in which he retired, so he built his own. Today it provides him with a net income of $40,000 each month. Famously, KFC's 65-year-old Kentucky Colonel Harlan Sanders supplemented a paltry Social Security check by franchising his unique recipe for fried poultry. Past 50, McDonald's Ray Kroc made a similar trek in multiplying by many thousands a few popular, golden-arched hamburger stands from San Bernardino, California. Contrary to popular mythology, entrepreneurship is not spearheaded mostly by baby-faced, technology-savvy postadolescents whose brands include Facebook and Apple. According to a recent study, fully 80 percent of allbusinesses are started up by people over 35. Amy Groth of Business Insider cites these reasons that fortune favors the old: First, older entrepreneurs have more life and work experience. In some cases they have decades of industry expertise - and a better understanding of what it truly takes to compete and succeed,in the business world. Second, they also have much broader and vaster networks. Even if older entrepreneurs are seeking to start businesses in entirely different industries, they have deep connections from all walks of life - for example, a brother-in-law could be the perfect COO. Third, those over 50 have acquired more wealth and better credit histories (which helps with securing loans) and are smarter with their finances. In this special program from best-selling author Gary Goodman you'll discover: Supporters are everywhere: Your age cohort is the wealthiest! Now is the time to cash in your wisdom. Overcoming false beliefs and self-sabotage: why the only person holding you back is you. The Giraffe Syndrome: why the first step is the scariest. Busting age myths: "Nobody will work with me at my age!", "My best years are behind me", "It takes money to make money", and more. Language: English. Narrator: Gary Goodman.

    Ever wondered how we become addicted or why, how, and when we become particularly addicted and how we can overcome our addictions? Let's say, for example, you take a kid who grows up in a home feeling relatively disengaged, disconnected with their family, with the exception of when they all sit down, open up, and talk. They engage and connect with each other over a meal, and then with repetition, over the years when they grow up, they can't understand why every time they feel stressed, bored, disengaged, or disconnected, they feel this urge to kind of eat for comfort. Even when they're not even hungry, they just need to eat for the comfort of it, and they can't figure out where that started because most people don't spend a lot of time reflecting and looking for recurring patterns.Have you ever watched the movie The Founder about Ray Kroc who started McDonald's? He was this middle-aged guy who was feeling really disengaged, disconnected, and didn't have a very good home relationship with his wife and daughter, but when he was going around selling these McDonald's franchises, he was selling them to mums and dads who bring their kids and they go, "Hi, Ray. How's it going?" and he was like part of the family. He was like the father figure.The recurring theme with McDonald's when they first started out was "McDonald's is family", and it worked brilliantly for them. They now are the most successful fast food franchise in the world because they promoted that image of bonding and connecting, which humans growing up need to do. People need to feel a sense of belonging and connectedness. This is especially true when we look at young people these days. Young people especially need that sense of belonging. Nowadays, they worry, "Where's my phone?" If they can't bond or feel engaged or connected with people in real life, there's always a substitute. Now people, young people especially, are literally, literally addicted to their phone.p ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Shane Cuthbert.
