  The Inner Opponent - You are not...

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. You already know what to do. So why isn't it done? 
   
  Because you are not lazy. You are fighting an undefeated opponent who has trained with you since birth, knows exactly how many minutes of discomfort you tolerate, and wears your face. Psychology has spent fifty years filming his style. This book is the tape. 
   
  In fifteen rounds built on true stories (Victor Hugo locking away his own clothes to finish a novel, the champion swimmer who quit half a mile from shore in the fog, the 42-to-1 underdog who got up off the canvas against Mike Tyson, Foreman winning the title twenty years apart in the same red trunks), you will learn: 
   
  - why procrastination is not a time problem, and the five-minute counter that ends it 
  - the willpower myth science quietly buried, and what disciplined people actually do instead 
  - the two-minute floor that makes zero days structurally impossible 
  - the knockdown protocol: take the count, refuse the story, get up on schedule 
  - how identity is built one vote at a time, and why nobody holds a title alone 
   
  Every round ends with one drill you can run the same day, and one rule worth keeping. Fifteen rules in total: the complete fight plan against the only opponent who has ever really beaten you. 
   
  You will never knock him out. You only have to outbox him, one ordinary day at a time. 
   
  Answer the bell.

  Hell With the Fire Out: A...

  Written by Arthur Quinn 
  Read by Ed Quinn (with an introduction written and read by Julia Whelan) 
  The final book from esteemed Berkeley historian Arthur Quinn, Hell With the Fire Out is both a complex chronicle of a forgotten chapter in American Indian history and a vivid detailing of human foible, folly, and failure. With a novelistic flair, Quinn outlines the sad inevitability of America's westward expansion in its post-Civil War era. Wrangling all the inherent contradictions — Quaker Peace Policy vs Grant and Sherman's War Department; inter- and inner-tribal conflicts; the opposing attitudes of the region's White settlers — Quinn gives us a battle story not merely between nations and governments, but within the hearts of the very individuals at its center. 
  This is the first time an audio version of this book has been available and it is read by none other than the author's son, actor Ed Quinn (Two Broke Girls, One Day at a Time, Tyler Perry's The Oval).

This book reveals the unique and distinctive elements that have inspired generations of Masons. Thoughtful members of the craft, as well as outsiders, will appreciate its exploration of Masonic idealism and the eternal quest, from humble candidate to entered apprentice and master Mason.
