    The path to massive, lasting, and peaceful success is not one of domination and defeat; it’s a path walked by a quiet warrior whose weapons are caring and compassion.
     
    Qualities such as empathy, compassion, and kindness have long been seen as weaknesses in business but Succeed the Right Way demonstrates how these qualities can be the most powerful forces in achieving success. Using studies and real-life examples, Gunn takes you through the human experience, focusing on business, and instructs you how to live a successful life based on kindness.
     
    Most of us are good people, and it’s exhausting to live a false life where no compassion or empathy can be expressed. Operating with shields up all the time, because we are terrified of being seen as weak, is not sustainable and is unhealthy. But these grossly misunderstood gentle qualities are actually stronger than thoughtless aggression, and they allow us to live in peace.
     
    The recent global pandemic has changed our world. From the business landscape to views on social responsibility, we are now in a situation where empathy and kindness are more powerful than ever. From management to negotiations, diversity and inclusion, Gunn explores them all.
     
    Succeed the Right Way is a must for people tired of traditional business’s old dog-eat-dog paradigm.

    Book 1: Publishing has become an opportunity for many authors, stay-at-home dads, hard workers, narrators, cover designers, writers and the like. However, evil giant companies (one in particular) are sucking the life out of customers and the creativity out of authors to feed their greed and crush competitors in unethical ways. You will read: 
    - How one of the richest companies pays less taxes than you do, even though they make billions in profit. 
    - Law transgressions and sleazy tricks the before-mentioned company has stolen money and/or market share to grow their monstrous empire. 
    - Why most positive reviews and star averages on the company's enchanting website are actually fake, which makes a lot of sense if you really take the time to think about it. 
    - Money-making loopholes in a flawed system that can help you make tens of thousands of dollars extra (not kidding), because they're too stupid or arrogant at headquarters to update their bots. 
    Book 2: Publishing is not easy. In fact, it's super stressful, heart-breaking, frustrating, and sometimes bordering insanity. The fake reviews, the high volume, the corrupted companies that own monopolic market shares... it all adds up. 
    May Azoo's sins be exposed to the infernal depths of hell. May they rot in their filth and the income they have stolen from thousands and thousands of hardworking dropshippers, publishers, and more honest competitors. May the taxes we paid and they have received by playing evasive games be the nails to their coffin. The truth has been buried long enough. 
    Written by a fulltime publisher who has achieved six figures in revenue for 4 consecutive years with online book-pumping, and in which 4 years 3 years were six figures in profit. Learn from the best. Go through hell and you will achieve the rest. Don't be shocked. Good luck.

    Confidence. We want it. We need it. But it can be maddeningly enigmatic and out of reach. The authors of the New York Times bestseller Womenomics deconstruct this essential, elusive, and misunderstood quality and offer a blueprint for bringing more of it into our lives. 
    Is confidence hardwired into the DNA of a lucky few—or can anyone learn it? Is it best expressed by bravado, or is there another way to show confidence? Which is more important: confidence or competence? Why do so many women, even the most successful, struggle with feelings of self-doubt? Is there a secret to channeling our inner confidence? 
    In The Confidence Code, journalists Katty Kay and Claire Shipman travel to the frontiers of neuroscience on a hunt for the confidence gene and reveal surprising new research on its roots in our brains. They visit the world's leading psychologists who explain how we can all chose to become more confident simply by taking action and courting risk, and how those actions change our physical wiring. They interview women leaders from the worlds of politics, sports, the military, and the arts to learn how they have tapped into this elemental resource. They examine how a lack of confidence impacts our leadership, success, and fulfillment. 
    Ultimately, they argue, while confidence is partly influenced by genetics, it is not a fixed psychological state. That's the good news. You won't discover it by thinking positive thoughts or by telling yourself (or your children) that you are perfect as you are. You also won't find it by simply squaring your shoulders and faking it. But it does require a choice: less people pleasing and perfectionism and more action, risk taking, and fast failure. 
    Inspiring, insightful, and persuasive, The Confidence Code shows that by acting on our best instincts and by daring to be authentic, women can feel the transformative power of a life on confidence.
