  Terrible Beauty - Reckoning with...

  Auden Schendler

  Something's gone badly awry with environmentalism. We faithfully separate our waste into different streams, but wonder whether it really makes a difference. Global companies announce their commitment to carbon negativity while simultaneously sponsoring oil conferences. American businesses, communities, and individuals assiduously measure their carbon footprints, then implement voluntary emissions-reduction programs, all while trumpeting their do-gooderism. 
   
   
   
  The problem is, none of this—whether individual efforts or corporate sustainability tactics—will make a dent in solving the civilizational threat of climate change. We only pretend it will, at our peril. 
   
   
   
  As Auden Schendler argues in this provocative, powerful book, we're living a big green lie. The hard truth is that much of the modern environmental road map could have been written by the fossil fuel industry specifically to avoid disrupting the status quo. But there is another truth: while ineffective or duplicitous environmentalism has become standard practice, we all have friends and family we love and care about, whose future depends on solving the problem of climate change. Conscience tells us we have an obligation to repair the world. How can our common dreams be so at odds with our daily practice? And how might we meld our spirit and our passion to create a better future?

  Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad Poor Dad - the international runaway bestseller that has held a top spot on the New York Times bestsellers list for over six years - is an investor, entrepreneur and educator whose perspectives on money and investing fly in the face of conventional wisdom. He has, virtually single-handedly, challenged and changed the way tens of millions, around the world, think about money.In communicating his point of view on why 'old' advice - get a good job, save money, get out of debt, invest for the long term, and diversify - is 'bad' (both obsolete and flawed) advice, Robert has earned a reputation for straight talk, irreverence and courage.Rich Dad Poor Dad ranks as the longest-running bestseller on all four of the lists that report to Publisher's Weekly - The New York Times, Business Week, The Wall Street Journal and USA Today - and was named "USA Today's #1 Money Book" two years in a row. It is the third longest-running 'how-to' best seller of all time.Translated into 51 languages and available in 109 countries, the Rich Dad series has sold over 27 million copies worldwide and has dominated best sellers lists across Asia, Australia, South America, Mexico and Europe. In 2005, Robert was inducted into Amazon.com Hall of Fame as one of that bookseller's Top 25 Authors. There are currently 26 books in the Rich Dad series.In 2006 Robert teamed up with Donald Trump to co-author Why We Want You To Be Rich - Two Men - One Message. It debuted at #1 on The New York Times bestsellers list.Robert writes a bi-weekly column - 'Why the Rich Are Getting Richer' - for Yahoo! Finance and a monthly column titled 'Rich Returns' for Entrepreneur magazine.Prior to writing Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert created the educational board game CASHFLOW 101 to teach individuals the financial and investment strategies that his rich dad spent years teaching him. It was those same strategies that allowed Robert to retire at age 47.

  Own Or Be Owned - Build a...

  Codie Sanchez

  You didn't start a business to work 80 hours a week and feel broke on paper. 
   
  But here you are. The "we're not going to make it" fear. The 3 am panic. The quiet realization that working harder isn't fixing anything. It's keeping you stuck. 
   
  Codie Sanchez has been there. She's also been on the other side. She built a nine-figure holding company across laundromats, car washes, roofing companies, and service businesses that now print cash whether she shows up or not. Along the way, she learned the lesson most owners never get told: Heroics don't scale. Systems do. 
   
  In Own or Be Owned, Sanchez hands you the private equity playbook the pros use to turn ordinary businesses into ones you actually enjoy running. This is the same playbook her advisory group, the Contrarian Boardroom, has used to help 14,000 owners scale. 
   
  Here's what you'll learn: 
   
  - The Owner Score. A 10-minute diagnostic across 12 dimensions to find out if you own a business or it owns you. Plus the exact moves to fix every weak score. 
   
  - The 12 P's. The framework for diagnosing the most painful problem in your business and fixing it before it costs you another quarter. 
   
  - Pricing that prints. How underpaid owners become high-margin operators without losing customers (most owners are leaving 30-50 percent on the table). 
   
  - The hiring filter. How to attract A-players to a Main Street business and avoid the bad hires that cost you six figures and your sanity. 
   
  - The one-page dashboard. Run your entire company at a glance. This is the same scoreboard the best operators check every Monday morning. 
   
  This is the manual most CEOs never get. It's not for slackers, dreamers, or anyone looking for a shortcut. It's for the owner who's already in the arena, bleeding, and ready to stop trading hours for a business that should be paying them back. 
   
  There's a smarter way to build wealth, and take your time back.
