The world is noisy. Everywhere we turn we see what is expected of us, including in business. Messages about powerful women entrepreneurs bombard us: Boss Babe! Supermom! Mom Boss! We are taught to envision a life of prosperity, push ourselves to succeed, do whatever it takes, and strive for recognition. Those channels promise success and prosperity, yet what happens when the promise is unfulfilled? Not because we didn't succeed, but in the midst of our success. When I found myself hitting this successful-yet-something-was-missing wall, I was left feeling like there must be something wrong with me. Was I not focused enough? Did I not want "it" badly enough? Was I not willing to work hard enough? Was I not cut out to be an entrepreneur? These lies are just what the enemy wants us to believe, as he seeks to distract us from God's purpose by planting seeds of discouragement, doubt, and discontent in our minds. When some major setbacks led me to seek answers, I encountered Jesus. And that changed everything I knew about business. This audio book is for you if any of these resonate with you: •You are a successful entrepreneur (even if you believe you were, but aren't now), who feels she's lost her joy for the business •You feel like you're chasing the money but losing fulfillment, and you wonder what to do next •You're formerly of the corporate world, now translating all that drive, discipline, competitive edge, and resilience into your own business in search of hope and freedom •You seek to keep your relationship with Christ in the forefront as you build a business in the midst of drivers and strivers all around you. I wrote this audiobook to bring hope to women like you and me, who desire to make an impact for God's glory but aren't sure if it's possible (or even appropriate) to bridge faith and business. God gave us businesses to live out His purpose for us and to steward wisely. The only way to do this is with Him at the center, and that's how we Hustle with Heart.Mostra libro
Argentina's economic history is a complex and dynamic narrative marked by periods of growth, instability, and deep financial crises. Understanding the evolution of Argentina’s economy requires an examination of its historical context, social dynamics, and key events that have shaped its economic trajectory. From its colonial beginnings to its role in the global economy today, Argentina's economy has been influenced by various internal and external factors, ranging from agricultural production and international trade to political movements and international debt. At the time of its independence in 1816, Argentina had a relatively underdeveloped economy, largely reliant on agriculture, particularly the production of beef and grain. The country’s early economic struggles were compounded by frequent political instability and power struggles, which hindered the development of a cohesive economic strategy. The 19th century witnessed Argentina's agricultural sector become a central pillar of its economy, with exports to Europe fueling growth. However, the country faced several economic setbacks, including trade imbalances, debt accumulation, and conflicts over territorial disputes. The 20th century brought about significant shifts in Argentina’s economic landscape. The country experienced a wave of industrialization, which was supported by government policies aimed at reducing dependency on foreign markets. However, despite periods of prosperity, Argentina’s economy remained vulnerable to global economic trends and the volatility of international trade. The early decades of the 20th century saw periods of rapid growth alongside recurring recessions, and in the mid-1900s, Argentina began experiencing the first of many major economic crises.Mostra libro

When we think about the stock market, images of bustling trading floors, fast-ticking numbers, and endless charts come to mind. To many, it’s a place of opportunity—a platform where fortunes are made, dreams are realized, and hard work pays off in the form of rising stock prices. But beneath the surface lies a different reality, one shrouded in manipulation, deception, and power plays that most of us will never see. "The Silent Hand: Behind the Market’s Illusion" is a story about stock market manipulation; it’s a window into a world where the movements of a few can change the fate of many. It’s a world where vast sums of money, hidden political ties, and the control of information dictate who wins and who loses—often leaving small traders holding the short end of the stick. I was inspired to write this book after hearing stories from traders who had lost everything in market crashes that seemed to defy logic. As I dug deeper, I began to understand the extent of influence that big capital and political power have on markets. It’s a game designed to be unwinnable for the little guy, yet millions of people play it every day, unaware of the forces working against them. This book follows the journey of Arjun, a journalist who stumbles upon this hidden world and embarks on a quest to expose the truth. Through his eyes, we’ll see how a nexus of powerful individuals—the politicians, financiers, and media moguls—manipulate the market to serve their own interests, creating illusions that trap unsuspecting traders. Thank you for joining me on this journey into the shadows of the financial world. I hope you find this book both enlightening and thrilling. Stay curious, stay informed, and remember: the market is never as free as it seems.Mostra libro
