Condition: new. Pages: 264 Language: Estonian. Igast selle raamatu peatükist leiate tosinate kaupa nutikaid ideid, mis võimaldavad teil omandada suurelt mõtlemise tohutu väe, et võiksite saavutada edu, õnne ja rahulduse, mida nii väga ihkate. Iga tehnikaga kaasneb tähelepanuväärne näide elust. Need on tõestatud lähenemisviisid e…lu olukordadele ning universaalselt rakendatavad sammud, mis toimivad otsekui võlujõud.Uskuge, et võite olla edukas, ja te oletegi! Ravige end läbikukkumise haigusest - väljavabandamisest! Kuidas loovalt mõelda ja unistada? Mõelge inimestest õigesti ja te meeldite neile ning nad toetavad teid.Kuidas mõelda nagu juht? Tark mees on oma mõistuse peremees, rumal selle ori.Üks vana ja tark mees nimega Mort Utley ütles kord, et kui mõtled piisavalt suurelt, siis juhtub kindlasti midagi head. Unistused, loovus ja kõrged eesmärgid avavad meile seni peidus olnud võimalusi ning aitavad asjana iseeneses elus ja töös paremaid tulemusi saavutada.Peep VainMe elame peamiselt selles maailmas, mille me enda ümber jutustame. Õnneks ei suuda me maailma endale täiesti meelepäraseks muuta, kuid saame tegutsedes vormida oma elu nii, et see võtab üha enam meie unistuste vormi. Selleks võiksime oma unistuse kõigi hirmude kiuste selgelt jutustada ning asuda seejärel seda järjekindlalt päriseluks muutma. David J. Schwartz näitab veenvalt ja lihtsalt, kuidas seda teha. Kui mõtleme suurelt, siis järgnevad varem või hiljem ka suured teod, mis jätavad meist inimkonnale kasu toova jälje.Kristjan Otsmann, raamatu "Hetk" autor, heade mõtete ellu viimise koolitaja ja coachUsk oma tegemistesse ja initsiatiiv on kaks asja, mis maailma muudavad. Ilma nende kaheta ei teki ka teadmisi. Seega ütlen ma sellest raamatust inspireerituna nii: ma olen kohutavalt kade inimeste peale, kes lisaks suurelt mõtlemisele suudavad oma mõtted ka ellu viia.Joel Volkov 9789949444946.

A small collection of books and manuscripts belonging to David Kirke, the founder of The Dangerous Sports Club (DSC). Starting with a bungee jump on April Fool's Day 1979, the DSC went on, over the next decade or so, to embark on high profile, hazardous acts such as skiing down a mountain on a grand piano (an attempt to do the s…ame with a double-decker London bus was banned), hang-gliding from active volcanoes and early BASE jumping. The collection is as follows: 1. Notebook (196x128mm). Bound in quarter leatherette and red cloth. 316pp of manuscript. The contents of the book have become detached from the cover but this was David Kirke's principal notebook and so was heavily used. The front free endpaper describes it as the "Aviation notebook" and under Kirke's address in Oxford is written "Large Reward for Return". The notebook has a large number of names, addresses and telephone numbers. These are from across the world as Kirke plotted his global adventures and tend towards the rather grand: there are couple of princesses, a dissolute Marquess (Jamie Blandford), James Hunt and plenty of smart addresses plus some very dangerous contacts indeed, not least Jimmy Savile listed with his Stoke Mandeville Hospital phone number. But the real interest of this book is Kirke's extensive notes for his dangerous sports projects. There are long entries about the Himalayas and clearly something was planned involving aeroplanes but we can find no record of a completed event. There are diagrams and sketches by Kirke including some sort of balloon and a catapult (based on a medieval trebuchet) for launching people into the air. This dates the book to around 1988 when the catapult idea was conceived for a (never made) Japanese television show. However, the invention eventually led to tragedy when, in November 2002, at an event run by an offshoot of the DSC, an Oxford undergraduate was killed when the mechanism misfired. By then the DSC's great days were behind it, but this accident seemed to mark the end of a culture of risk and danger and the beginnings of a new age of caution, health and safety. 2. Notebook (178x110mm) bound in red cloth with white label on front cover on which is hand-written History of the Dangerous Sports Club: Agreements. 24pp of manuscript (the rest of the book is blank). The first entry dated headed Minute Book. Dangerous Sports Club Film Co. and then sets out the minutes of a meeting on Monday June 8th [1981] which established the "Film Company" to publicise the DSC and arrange for the making and distributing of films and television programmes about the Club's activities. The last entry is dated December 1982 by which time it has become clear that the Film Company had disintegrated amidst personality clashes and financial chaos. There seems to have been much talk about television rights and raising money for film projects but in the end the largest sum paid out was to their lawyers. 3. Notebook (178x130mm) bound in green corduroy cloth. 50pp of manuscript. It is undated but, with its references to email addresses and websites, is from this century and certainly postdates the DSC heyday as it appears to deal mainly with the day to day running of a property. However, there are little DSC asides by Kirke such as the observation that "the only saloon worth drinking in is the last chance one". 4. WARHOL, Andy. Andy Warhol's Exposures. London: Hutchinson. 1979. pp[256]. Inscribed on title page, "To the dangerous sportsclub love Andy". There are two quick heartshaped sketches on the same page. Beneath the title is written "(But probably the only book in my whole collection I would call vulgar. D(avid) K(irke)". Black cloth and original illustrated dustjacket in plastic cover. This extensively illustrated book is Andy Warhol's hymn to the New York 1970s beau monde and their spiritual home, the nightclub Studio 54. The link between Warhol and the DSC was Tim Hunt, one of the Club's founders, who later became an agent for the A.
