    Relationship of Couple Therapy Workbook: Guide to Communication Between Men and Women to Avoid Toxic Relationship and Anxiety; Therapies and Habits to Make Your Relationship Stronger (Relationship Workbook, Book 1) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 186min
    Are you one of those people who believe that it is impossible to stay in a relationship for longer than three months, simply because the people you get into a relationship with all have issues?Alternatively, are you the kind of people who feel as if you are not good enough to be in a relationship with someone because you always imagine that the other person will meet someone better than you along the way and break your heart?The truth is, relationships are hard work, and few people are willing to put in the work. The problem with most relationships we have today is that people make their relationship decisions based on how they or the other person looks, and completely forget that the inner person's beauty or issues and that the inner person really matters in every relationship.The relationships that should not be allowed to continue are the toxic kind, those that bring out the worst in both individuals and where an individual is taking advantage of another one for his or her selfish gains. However, most other relationships only need the parties involved to listen to each other, care for each other, accept each other, and learn to accept themselves.This audiobook covers the following:We will discuss the importance of having a vision in a relationship, appropriate phrasing of all forms of communication, and focusing on all areas of the relationship.We will talk about toxic relationships, how people find themselves in these types of relationships, and the steps people should take when they are in toxic relationships.We will explore the value of listening in a relationship, everything to do with empathetic listening, and the steps an individual should take to improve his or her listening skills.We will discuss the different types of relationships people find themselves in and explain the different forms of relationships. Furthermore, we will explain the value of caring and affection within the relati ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Emily Decker.

    American Legends: The Life of Billie Holiday , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 98min
    Don't threaten me with love, baby, let's just go walking in the rain (Billie Holiday) A lot of ink has been spilled covering the lives of history's most influential figures, but how much of the forest is lost for the trees? In Charles River Editors' American Legends series, listeners can get caught up to speed on the lives of America's most important men and women in the time it takes to finish a commute, while learning interesting facts long forgotten or never known. If Billie Holiday wanted to become a jazz singer, she chose the best of all eras in which to attempt it. A wave of great jazz and jazz/pop crossover artists swept over the United States from the 1920s through the 1950s, generating a golden age for the genre. This wondrous jazz era represented both black and white master artists, men, women, vocalists, and instrumentalists, and Billie Holiday has stood the test of time as well as any of them, despite struggling with an environment that easily could have doomed such aspirations. Emerging from such a powerful group of talented vocalists was not easy. The woman who has come to represent a model of great, instinctive jazz singing came from nowhere, had nothing, and virtually had no one who was truly helpful in her background. She was raw and untrained, but went forward, regardless, with limited and quirky vocal gifts, the likes of which had never been heard in the highest circles of jazz. This especially was true among women, where perfection of phrasing and a smooth style of delivery stood as the unspoken guidelines of vocal success. No female counterpart of Louis Armstrong, one of Holiday's idols, was ever going to survive in the female jazz world for long, except perhaps as a novelty. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Leadership Lessons from Niccolo Machiavelli and The Prince , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 30min
    The Prince, written by Niccolò Machiavelli in 1513 and published in 1532 posthumously, is one of the most controversial pieces of writing in the world, even from the moment it was presented to “The Magnificent Lorenzo di Piero de'Medici”. Machiavelli was already considered a controversial figure in his time, and this fact, along with his imprisonment, torture, and banishment by the newly reinstated Medici regime, is the most likely reason for its rejection by its intended recipient. It is written like a letter of advice to the new prince from someone who understands through experience and wisdom how to maintain a “principality”.  This treatise is credited with the coining of the term “Machiavellian”. Generally, this is a negative term referring to corrupt and “evil” politicians, who will use immoral behavior, such as lying, stealing, and even murder, to get what they want. If this turns out to be good for the many, they take credit for it as having done something bad in order to make something good happen. This “ends justify the means” philosophy is thought to have been started by Machiavelli, although this exact phrasing is not used in his writing and his actual meaning is typically taken out of context. However, the basic idea behind the ends justifying the means theory is evident. Despite the controversy surrounding the title, The Prince is thought to be the most popular political book in history. It is still read to this day and many find useful leadership lessons from Machiavelli. While most scholars and philosophers think Machiavelli was advocating evil and cruelty, others such as Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Denis Diderot found that modern democratic politics were inspired by Machiavelli's writings.  Machiavelli spends much time in The Prince discussing principalities: how a prince comes to rule over one, how to maintain it, and giving examples of other rulers who either failed or succeeded in maintaining their princedoms on ungekürzt.

    Copywriting Mastery: How to Spice up Your Website Sales Copy and Watch Your Sales Grow! , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 89min
    If you are serious about being successful in an online business, then you must be able and willing to work hard to communicate with your buyers. If you aren't willing to put in the kind of time needed to make your website zing with commerce, then you need to take a serious look at your motivation for being in business in the first place. Being online has a certain cache, but it also requires hard work, lots of research, lots of time and a dedication to providing your customers with not only what they want but also excellent customer service. If you don't provide either of those things, are not available to answer their questions, don't provide fresh content-rich copy for your site, and update it with a regularity bordering on the obsessive, you will not be as successful as you would like to be. And what would the point of having a website be if your product doesn't sell? Before you can be a success in building a business and be a success in communicating, you need to know how to learn to learn. No, this isn't a typo. If you can't learn to learn then you will not earn. You need a good attitude to learn to build your business and to communicate. No two ways about it. Think about attitudes. We see and hear them daily with everyone we deal with and speak to either in person, on the phone or by email. You know if you speak to an upbeat, positive person you come away feeling pretty great yourself. The "positive" was communicated in a positive way. On the other hand if you wind up talking to a little bridge troll with an attitude, you will come away feeling grumpy and stressed. You cannot communicate in a positive way if you have had "attitude" handed to you. And you cannot communicate in a positive way if you have attitude either. As bizarre as this may sound, the way you write your website copy can be directly affected by your attitude and choice of words and phrasing. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Facing the Music: A Broadway Memoir
    Musical Director and arranger David Loud, a legendary Broadway talent, recounts his wildly entertaining and deeply poignant trek through the wilderness of his childhood and the edge-of-your-seat drama of a career on, in, under, and around Broadway for decades. He reveals his struggle against the ravages of Parkinson's and triumphs repeatedly. This memoir is also a remarkable love letter to music. Loud is the 'Ted Lasso' of the theater business, ever the optimist. An inspiration to all! "'Music has consequences,' a wise teacher once told a young David Loud; so does a story well-told and a life fully-lived. I lost count of how many times I laughed, cried, and laugh-cried reading this wonderful, wry, intimate, and inspiring book. David wields a pen like he wields a baton, with perfect timing, exquisite phrasing, and enormous heart." - David Hyde Pierce, actor, Frasier, Spamalot, Curtains "Beautifully written, filled with vivid details, braided with love and loss and wit and the perspective of someone with an utterly unique story to tell." -- Lynn Ahrens, lyricist, Ragtime, Once on This Island, Anastasia "Luminous and surprising, an extremely honest memoir of a life lived in the world of Broadway musicals, by one of the theatre's most gifted conductors. I can't think of another book quite like it." -- John Kander, composer, Cabaret, Chicago, New York, New York Unforgettably entertaining and emotionally revealing, Loud is pitch-perfect as he describes his path to the podium, from a stage-struck kid growing up at a school devoted to organic farming and mountain climbing, to the searing formative challenges he faces during adolescence, to the remarkable behind-the-scenes stories of his Broadway trials and triumphs. Skilled at masking his fears, Loud achieves his dream until one fateful opening night, when in the midst of a merry, dressing room celebration, he can no longer deny reality and must suddenly, truly, face the music.

    Eminent Hipsters (eBook, ePUB)
    In Eminent Hipsters, musician and songwriter Donald Fagen, best known as the co-founder of the rock band Steely Dan, presents an autobiographical portrait that touches on everything from the cultural figures that mattered the most to him as a teenager, to his years in the late 1960s at Bard College, to a hilarious account of a recent tour he made with Boz Scaggs and Michael McDonald. Fagen begins by introducing the 'eminent hipsters' that spoke to him as he was growing up (and desperately yearning to be hip) in suburban New Jersey in the late 1950s and early 1960s. The figures who influenced him most were not the typical ones - Miles Davis, say, or Jack Kerouac - but rather people like Jean Shepherd, whose manic, acidic nightly radio broadcasts out of WOR-Radio had a tough realism about life and 'enthralled a generation of alienated young people'; Henry Mancini, whose chilled-out, nourish soundtracks, especially to films by Blake Edwards utilised the unconventional, spare instrumentation associated with the cool jazz school; and Mort Fega, the laid back, knowledgeable all night jazz man at WEVD, who was like 'the cool uncle you always wished you had'. He writes of how, growing up as a Cold War baby, one of his primary doors of escape became reading science fiction by such authors as Philip K. Dick, and of his regular trips into New York City to hear jazz. Other emblematic musical heroes Fagen writes about include Ray Charles, Ike Turner, and the Boswell Sisters, a trio from the 1920s and 30s whose subversive musical genius included trick phrasing and way out harmony. 'Class of '69' recounts Fagen's colourful tumultuous years at Bard College, the progressive university north of New York City that attracted a strange mix of applicants, including 'desperate suburban misfits with impressive verbal skills but appalling high school records' (like himself). It was at Bard that Fagen first met Walter Becker, with whom he would later form Steely Dan. The final section of the book, 'With the Dukes of September', offers a day-by-day account of a tour Fagen undertook last summer across America with Boz Scaggs and Michael McDonald, performing a programme of old R&B and soul tunes as well as some of each of their own hits. Told in a weary, cranky, occasionally biting and always entertaining voice, Fagen brings to life the ups and downs and various indignities and anxieties of being on the road - The Dukes were an admittedly 'low-rent operation' compared to a Steely Dan tour - as well as communicating the challenges and joy of playing every night to a different crowd in a different city.
