Sinopse

Young Dexter Green falls in love, while still a teenager, with a rich and beautiful maiden, Judy Jones. He attends a famous university, plays golf on the courses of St. Paul, becomes a prominent businessman and succeeds in winning the woman he loves, but the love lasts only a month: the woman he has loved so much has now lost all her beauty, and this loss is the loss of his "winter dreams." Set against the backdrop of the Roaring Twenties, the story explores themes of ambition, unrequited love, and the disillusionment that accompanies the pursuit of the American Dream.

Profiles in Grit is the story of City College of New York alumni who beat the odds to reach the pinnacle of their professions and in the process transformed our world.Here are just a few:Andrew Grove, hearing impaired and a survivor of Nazi occupation and Communist rule became the visionary CEO of Intel Corporation, the manufacturer of the semiconductor chip found in most personal computers today.Yip Harburg, the son of immigrants, wrote the lyrics to countless music standards, including "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," one of the most celebrated songs of all times. Jonas Salk, facing antisemitism and the rebuke of the scientific community, developed the Salk Vaccine that irradicated polio from the face of the earth. Felix Frankfurter, who came to America at 12 speaking no English, would be appointed a U.S. Supreme Court Justice, and help write the unanimous opinion in Brown v. the Board of Education declaring school segregation in the United States illegal. In "CCNY Made. Profiles In Grit," the stories of CCNY alumni are recounted who exemplify the promise of Townsend Harris, founder of CCNY and The Ephebic Oath affirmed by graduating students every year. "We will strive unceasingly to quicken the public's better, of civic duty; and thus, in all these ways we will strive to transmit this city not only not less, but greater, better and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us."

    You’re not stuck. Your brain is just used to being that way. 
    You keep hearing it: you can change. But when stress takes over, when habits sabotage your progress, or when you keep repeating thoughts that drain you — it doesn’t feel like change is even possible. 
    The truth? Most people live their entire lives thinking their brain is static. Fixed. Wired a certain way from birth. That belief alone is the trap. 
    Here’s the science-backed truth: your brain is plastic. Flexible. Rewriteable. 
    And once you know how to use that, everything changes — thought by thought, habit by habit, day by day. 
    What’s in this audiobook? 
    You’ll discover how to break the loops that keep you anxious, distracted, stuck in old patterns — and replace them with routines, responses, and mental clarity that feel natural, not forced. 
    No hype. No nonsense. Just real tools that help you:Change your habits without willpower battlesTrain your brain to respond differently to stressMake anxiety less automatic, and calm more accessibleUse mental models that reframe the way you see your challengesUnderstand your brain’s systems so they stop working against youInterrupt the loop of self-sabotage with mindful actionBuild new thought patterns that stick over timeReprogram your responses to triggers in your environmentTrain your subconscious, not just your conscious mindUse "mind hacking" techniques that feel like mental shortcuts 
    No meditation retreats required. No expensive tools. Just real understanding of your mind, and the science to back it up.Start here. Change how you think. Then watch what happens.

    •	Freedom and Discipline – How structure and liberty coexist in the ideal polity 
    •	Religion and Reason – The divine underpinnings of law and justice 
    •	Plato’s Final Philosophical Testament – A grounded, practical vision of real-world political ethics
