  "You have the choice to go forward or backward. It's as simple as that." - Matt Worthington 
  In Worthington's book, Ultra Productive, he details the tried and true methods of hard work, consistency, and discipline. Worthington claims that the combination of these three actions, plus mastering your thoughts, are the keys to accomplishing any great feat, no matter how crazy the rest of the world thinks it may be. In his compelling memoir, Worthington takes you through the trials and tribulations he faced during his college years and shows the path to a more purpose-driven life - one that allows the reader to get ahead, overcome any obstacle they face, and ultimately, graduate from college debt-free! 
  Endorsement: 
  Matthew is proof that it's never too late [or too early] to turn your life around. The person you were yesterday doesn't have to be the person you'll be tomorrow. Reading books changed my life for the better and it did the same for Matthew. Through the power of reading, and other self-improvement activities, Matthew was able to believe in himself and ultimately live a richer and fuller life. 
  -Alex Wieckowski - Podcaster, Author of The Readers Journey and Founder of Alex & Books.

  Building a New Leadership Ladder...

  When it comes to the gender gap, it is not enough to ask women to "lean in" and demand promotions and raises. Organizations have an obligation to level up and provide women with more opportunities for advancement. In this book, leadership and governance expert Carol Geffner makes a strong case that for women to reach their full potential, workplaces and their leaders must take a more proactive role in combating gender discrimination. 
   
   
   
  Based on over 200 hours of interviews with women leaders in the United States and abroad, Building a New Leadership Ladder demonstrates that even when women are promoted to leadership positions, they are rarely given access to the same support networks as their male colleagues. Covering sectors as diverse as higher education, health care, law enforcement, and the military, the book identifies common strategies that all organizations can use to remove obstacles for women's advancement. 
   
   
   
  More than a how-to guide on how women can ascend to the top, Building a New Leadership Ladder is a bold call to action for organizations and their leaders to proactively foster the conditions under which women's efforts to rise up are consistently recognized and rewarded.

  Mindset - Change your mindset;...

  This short audio presentation is designed to bring clear understanding of mindset to enhance your daily life, and to give you an opportunity to focus and reflect on the level of effective mindset currently in your life. "Whatever you believe about yourself on the inside, is what you will manifest on the outside." John Assaraf. Our underlying habitual thoughts, about ourselves and others, are often described as our "Mindset". We have greatness within us. All of us have unique gifts and abilities. But if our mindset is too fixed or negative we will never achieve our best life. 
  We have a responsibility to develop our skills and maintain a positive mind. The more we begin to know and trust the power within, the more we connect with what we can be. 
  A life truly worth living is within us and we can connect with it. In doing so, we grow and enrich our lives and the lives of others. 
  It begins with our mindset.  
   
  How this audio learning experience works 
  This audio presentation has been designed using an experiential learning model, Kolb, D. A. (1984): concrete learning, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation. 
  By taking this approach we hope to cater for all learning styles. 
  You will be given specific new information in the recording usually as “key tips”, “explanations” and “quotes”. You will be led through a gentle but positive meditative reflection process to assist you before conceptualisation and then putting your new skills into practice. 
  You will be encouraged to return to the recording from time to time to re-listen and reinforce your learning and the desired changes in your life. 
  Enjoy!

  Over the past three decades, Lew Bryson has been one of the most influential voices in whiskey. In Whiskey Master Class, Lew shares everything he's learned on his journey through the worlds of bourbon, Scotch, rye, Japanese whiskey, and more (yes, there are tasty Canadian and Irish whiskeys!). In this book, you'll find: 
   
   
   
  ● An overview of the different types of whiskeys, including the rules and identities of each. He also includes information on craft whiskeys, which tend to be more creative and freewheeling than the styles made by traditional producers. 
   
   
   
  ● Exploration of the key whiskey ingredients, with a close look at the flavor contributions of malt, peat, corn, rye, wheat—even water matters. 
   
   
   
  ● Distillation for non-distillers and the beauty of barrels: Whiskey is both an art and a science, and what's in the glass is affected by things like pot stills vs. column stills, barrel char, and of course, time. 
   
    
   
  ● Numerous interviews with master distillers, still makers, and other artisans at the top of their field. 
   
   
   
  ● Tasting notes throughout so you can identify the whiskeys you might want to try next. 
   
   
   
  You'll want to do the homework with whiskey as the subject!
