The subject of “money” remains one of the most fascinating, thought provoking, emotional, polarizing and well researched subjects in the world. Scores of books, articles, blog posts, and speeches have been written on what money is, how to earn it, how to spend it, who has it and who does not and a myriad of other topics related to the effects that it produces. Yet, despite the constant focus and interest on the topic, there is one word that describes the average person’s views around money: confusion. It seems that, there is so much dis-information (what we might call “financial white noise”), that most people either rely on chance for their fortune, or they ignore the subject altogether. This is not only unnecessary, it is a tragedy, because of the untapped human potential that is never uncovered when people leave their lives to chance, or give up on their dreams. It’s also totally unnecessary, because the topic of money―how to create it, how to invest it, and how to spend it wisely―is known. Truly, there is a “science” of money, just as there is a science of nutrition, chemistry, and engineering. This “science of money” has been tested and proven again and again. And while new “theories” can arise all the time―just as we have new theories for cures for cancer or baldness, for example―the discipline of science, and it’s rules for testing and verifying results―will, in short order, move these ideas from the realm of “theory” to one of two categories: ―The Laws of Money that have been proven and can be relied upon―as much as you can rely upon the sun rising in the East and setting in the West―and The Myths of Money―those ideas (some of which may still be around, just as “rumor” or “innuendo” can exist without any basis) which claim to be true, but which have been tested and disproven, or which at best have never been decidedly proven. Ultimately, this program has one central goal: To end all of the confusion once and for all, and to present, in one comprehensive program, the essential truths about money. If you simply study the ideas in this program, and apply them to your life and your business, you will become financially successful―as sure as the sun will rise tomorrow.

What do you want most out of life? If you can answer that question with complete integrity and clarity, you are at the starting point of greatness. In his classic guides Think and Grow Rich and The Law of Success, motivational pioneer Napoleon Hill taught that finding your Definite Chief Aim is the most decisive and important step you can take in life. In this compelling and eminently practical “master class,” acclaimed historian and New Thought author Mitch Horowitz takes you for a deep dive inside Napoleon Hill’s most urgent principle. Through concrete techniques and examples, Mitch shows you how to identify your true aim, refine and act on it, and overcome setbacks. MITCH HOROWITZ is a PEN Award-winning historian and the author of Occult America and One Simple Idea: How Positive Thinking Reshaped Modern Life. Mitch has written on everything from the war on witches to the secret life of Ronald Reagan for The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Salon, and Time.com. The Washington Post says Mitch “treats esoteric ideas and movements with an even-handed intellectual studiousness that is too often lost in today’s raised-voice discussions.” Mitch is a monthly columnist for Science of Mind magazine, and the voice of audio books including Alcoholics Anonymous. He is a vice president and executive editor at Penguin Random House. Visit him at www.MitchHorowitz.com and @MitchHorowitz. Deepak Chopra: “Simply brilliant” Ken Burns: “Wonderfully inspirational” Publishers Weekly: “Spell-binding” Paris Match: “Convincing” Washington Times: “Remarkable” Christian Science Monitor: “Thoughtful” Bloomberg Businessweek: “A fluid writer … And like Ronald Reagan, he’s unembarrassed about the mystical side of positive thinking … Does it work? He says it does.”

The greatest adventure in our lives is to learn the art of being happy. Happiness, like worry, is a habit, just as tying a shoelace or brushing our teeth becomes a habit. And, as you'll learn in this book, it only takes five minute a day to install happiness as a lifelong habit. Once the happiness habit is developed then it becomes a permanent part of your personality--requiring little or no effort on your part. You'll learn that tensions are at a minimum when we are happy. We cannot eliminate tensions altogether, yet wherever possible we must stand up to these tensions and stresses to develop our mental and spiritual muscles, just as in a game an athlete shows his abilities best under stress. In this program, you'll learn that we have a "built-in" success mechanism, also a "built-in" failure mechanism, and it is up to us to utilize the success mechanism in order to maximize happiness. And you'll learn that to be happy we must learn that we have another image besides the external one we see in the mirror. We have an inner self image that is the result of what we are and what we think we are...and this image we ourselves create depending on what aspects of the success or failure mechanisms we use. This in turn gives clothing to our personality. Getting the happiness habit means that we can use our imagination properly. Getting the happiness habit means that we become our own plastic surgeon and without the use of a magic scalpel perform magic on our self image, constructing a self image we can live with by removing the scar on it through understanding-an inner scar we put there with our own mental and spiritual bands, because we didn't understand. In Five Minutes to Happiness, you'll spend five minutes each day to reinforce these key ideas, and to pave the way to a joyous life adventure.

Most everyone has something they are passionate about. But without the ability to actually effect change… things just stay the same. In order to truly inspire change, we need to be able to effectively explain the problem, inspire people to join us, create a vision for the new reality, and then motivate people to take the actions that lead to the change. Inspiring change requires charisma―the ability to communicate a clear, visionary, and inspirational message that captivates and motivates an audience.Imagine having that kind of aura… where all you had to do was walk into a room and heads would turn and people would want to hear what you have to say. What could that do for your career? Your personal life? The issues and causes you feel most passionately about?But most of us don’t have a television show, the aura of celebrity, or the powerful emotional catalyst of a tragedy to unleash our passion. Most of us are just regular, every day people. Can we, too, use the power of charisma to inspire change?The answer is a resounding YES! In this inspiring and idea-packed audio program, The Power of Charisma, you'll learn that charisma is a social skill, like listening, that can be learned. And once learned, it becomes the difference between being heard or ignored. Charisma can benefit virtually every area of your life. Charisma gets people to like you, to trust you, to want to join you. Whether you’re the leader of a country, the leader of your Girl Scout troop, or a freelance artist all alone in your studio, charisma can help you get what you want.

In 1996, an unprecedented decade-long courtroom battle was waged in Florida to help bring justice and hope to the family of a young boy born with no eyes after his mother was doused outside of a local u-pick farm by a chemical fungicide believed to have caused his birth defect and the birth defects of many other children. It was a battle that nearly everyone but attorney Jim Ferraro deemed unwinnable. After all, it involved one of the world’s most powerful industrial giants. In the process, it was a fight that changed the landscape of tort law forever. Before it was over Castillo-vs-DuPont would go down in history as the first and one of the most important cases of its kind, setting precedent and also sparking a crucial debate over the questionable use of what is known as the “junk-science defense.” Blindsided is a blow-by-blow account of how a lone attorney challenged a dangerous threat to public health….and how the defenders never saw defeat coming. It’s a real life David and Goliath story―a true courtroom drama for the ages.
