Retrain Your Mind: A Complete Guide to Control Your Emotions , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 181min
Unusually, you would not consider leaving your house naked in the morning, but you would have no problem leaving your home mentally unprepared for the day ahead. The average life is, therefore, worldly and often worse. But every morning, five minutes, concentrating your mind, will change your life. This chapter discusses what kind of emphasis is required and how anyone (including you) can do it. Knowing your subconscious is to control the unconscious mind in the information. You want to harmonize the mind, body, and spirituality. When you learn how to control your mind to unlock information from the subconscious mind, you will find success, money, and friends more easily attracted. You use old information, add it to it now, and make use of it in your best interest. But when you explore your subliminal subconscious, you want to be punctilious. Many people would probably choose the latter if a choice was made between carrot sticks and a juicy, delicious-looking cheeseburger. If I had to choose, I would also choose the cheeseburger. We know that carrot sticks are safer, but why are we making a mistake? The reason is how we think and how we think about food. Our brains are hardwired to choose the food we believe we will most enjoy or offer us more pleasure. It also means, though, that we often eat foods that are not at all good. ungekürzt.

The Locomotive of War , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 873min
A fresh and fascinating reappraisal of the first half of the 20th century from one of our foremost historians. 'War, comrades,' declared Trotsky, 'is a great locomotive of history.' He was thought to be acknowledging the opportunity the First World War had offered the Bolsheviks to seize power in Russia in 1917. Twentieth-century warfare, based on new technologies and mass armies, certainly saw the locomotive power of war geared up to an unprecedented level. Peter Clarke explores the crucial ways in which war can be seen as a prime mover of history in the 20th century through the eyes of five major figures. In Britain two wartime prime ministers - first David Lloyd George, later Winston Churchill - found their careers made and unmade by the unprecedented challenges they faced. In the United States, two presidents elected in peacetime - Woodrow Wilson and Franklin Roosevelt - likewise found that war drastically changed their agenda. And it was through the experience of war that the economic ideas of John Maynard Keynes were shaped and came to exert wide influence. When the United States entered the First World War in 1917, President Wilson famously declared: 'The world must be made safe for democracy.' This liberal prospectus was to be tested in the subsequent peace treaty, one that was to be bitterly remembered by Germans for its 'war guilt clause'. But both in the making of the war and the making of the peace, the issue of guilt did not suddenly materialise out of thin air. As Clarke's narrative shows, it was an integral component of the Anglo-American liberal tradition. The Locomotive of War is a forensic and punctilious examination of both the interplay between key figures in the context of the unprecedented all-out wars of 1914-18 and 1939-45 and the broader dynamics of history in this extraordinary period. Deeply revealing and insightful, it is history of the highest calibre. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jeremy Clyde.
