Edgar Cayce on Mastering Your Spiritual Growth , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 365min
What if God were completely loving, the universe completely orderly, and everything that transpired in life a purposeful experience chosen, at some level, by the soul for spiritual growth and soul development? Such is the premise of Edgar Cayce on Mastering Your Spiritual Growth. Drawing upon contemporary examples as well as historical case studies of individuals who received psychic guidance from Edgar Cayce, this insightful volume examines the activities of soul growth and the process of personal transformation that will ultimately enable all individuals to transform themselves as well as society and the world at large. For countless ages, people have asked, "Who am I?", "Why am I here?", and, "Does my life have a purpose?" The answers to these questions were explored by thousands of individuals who came to famed psychic Edgar Cayce, and they are answers that are just as applicable today. The ultimate truth is that we are spiritual beings having a physical experience, living purposeful lives in a process of soul growth. The keys to that process are working with a personal spiritual intent or ideal, discovering our own approach to personal attunement, and repeatedly working with personal application. The Cayce information contends that it is the inevitable destiny of every soul is to become cognizant of its true relationship to the creator, eventually achieving spiritual enlightenment in the process. What if a new understanding of the nature of the soul and the purpose of life on Earth could transform humankind? Such is the premise in the Cayce information. ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Vanishing Neighbor: The Transformation of American Community , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 510min
A sweeping new look at the unheralded transformation that is eroding the foundations of American exceptionalism. Americans today find themselves mired in an era of uncertainty and frustration. The nation's safety net is pulling apart under its own weight; political compromise is viewed as a form of defeat; and our faith in the enduring concept of American exceptionalism appears increasingly outdated. But the American Age may not be ending. In The Vanishing Neighbor, Marc J. Dunkelman identifies an epochal shift in the structure of American life - a shift unnoticed by many. Routines that once put doctors and lawyers in touch with grocers and plumbers - interactions that encouraged debate and cultivated compromise - have changed dramatically since the postwar era. Both technology and the new routines of everyday life connect tight-knit circles and expand the breadth of our social landscapes, but they've sapped the commonplace, incidental interactions that for centuries have built local communities and fostered healthy debate. The disappearance of these once-central relationships - between people who are familiar but not close, or friendly but not intimate - lies at the root of America's economic woes and political gridlock. The institutions that were erected to support what Tocqueville called the "township" - that unique locus of the power of citizens - are failing because they haven't yet been molded to the realities of the new American community. It's time we moved beyond the debate over whether the changes being made to American life are good or bad and focus instead on understanding the tradeoffs. Our cities are less racially segregated than in decades past, but we’ve become less cognizant of what's happening in the lives of people from different economic backgrounds, education levels, or age groups. ungekürzt.

Exemplary Leadership , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 70min
Leadership. A process whereby a person uses his or her capacity to inspire, spur, and impact others to accomplish an objective and coordinates the organization in a way that makes it more cognizant and firm. Leadership happens within the setting of a group, it includes affecting others, it is a procedure, and it involves objective achievement and the objectives are shared by leaders and their followers. The very demonstration of defining leadership as a procedure proposes that leadership is not a characteristic or trait with which just a couple of certain individuals are enriched with during childbirth. Characterizing leadership as a procedure implies that leadership is a transactional occasion that happens between leaders and their followers. Seeing leadership as a procedure implies that leaders influence and are influenced by their followers either positively or negatively. It emphasizes that leadership is a two-way, intuitive occasion between leaders and followers rather than a linear, one-way occasion in which the leader just influences the followers. Characterizing leadership as a procedure makes it accessible not only to a chosen few but to anyone who chooses to follow it. More important, it implies that leadership is not just confined to the one individual in a group who has formal and/or positional power. People can learn leadership skills. People can choose to become leaders. This is widely accepted today and is the premise on which this guide is based. In this audiobook, you will learn what leadership truly is, the differences between various types of leadership, the traits of good leaders, the differences between managers and leaders, steps to becoming a leader, and much, much more! ungekürzt.

Creating a Learning Society: A New Approach to Growth, Development, and Social Progress , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 752min
It has long been recognized that most standard of living increases are associated with advances in technology, not the accumulation of capital. Yet it has also become clear that what truly separates developed from less developed countries is not just a gap in resources or output but a gap in knowledge. In fact the pace at which developing countries grow is largely determined by the pace at which they close that gap. Therefore, how countries learn and become more productive is key to understanding how they grow and develop, especially over the long term. In Creating a Learning Society, Joseph E. Stiglitz and Bruce C. Greenwald spell out the implications of this insight for both economic theory and policy. Taking as a starting point Kenneth J. Arrow's 1962 paper "Learning by Doing", they explain why the production of knowledge differs from that of other goods and why market economies alone are typically not efficient in the production and transmission of knowledge. Closing knowledge gaps, or helping laggards learn, is central to growth and development. Combining technical economic analysis with accessible prose, Stiglitz and Greenwald provide new models of "endogenous growth", upending the received thinking about global policy and trade regimes. They show how well-designed government trade and industrial policies can help create a learning society; explain how poorly designed intellectual property regimes can retard learning; demonstrate how virtually every government policy has effects, both positive and negative, on learning; and argue that policymakers need to be cognizant of these effects. They provocatively show why many standard policy prescriptions, especially associated with "neoliberal" doctrines focusing on static resource allocations, impede learning and explain why free trade may lead to stagnation while broad-based industrial protection and exchange rate interventions may bring benefits, not just to the industrial sector but ungekürzt.

Thought Force in Business and Everday Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 177min
In justice to myself, I think it well to state that this work has been somewhat hastily prepared from the notes used by me in certain lectures, the lessons give herein practically being the syllabi of said lectures. In the lectures, and in this work, my one and only purpose has been to acquaint the students with the means of developing and effectively using the mighty forces latent within him - personal magnetism and psychic influence. To this end, I have scarified all pretensions to literary style, all attempts to secure felicity of diction. I have felt that I had a message to deliver, and I endeavored to deliver it promptly, clearly, and plainly, without any attempt at "fine writing". If a homely word seemed to express my thought, I used it. If a slang term or semi-slang phrase seemed to fit in, in it went. I trust that my critics will spare themselves the trouble of pointing out my many defects of style and composition - I fully realize these things. I have subordinated everything else in my endeavor to make this work plain and practical. This is an explanation, not an apology. With the above understanding between us, I submit this little work to your kind consideration. Whilst fully cognizant of its defects, I still feel that it will be helpful to some of the many who are endeavoring to overcome unfavorable environments, for which it may serve as a guidepost, pointing out the past to better things. I feel that it will do its share of the work of removing fear thought from the minds of men, of replacing "I can't" with "I can and I will." I feel that I must do these things, for it contains within it the germs of a mighty truth. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Barry J. Peterson.
