Senior business leaders to junior employees-everyone is seeking balance, meaning and joy in their career and life. Rather than faddish corporate fluff, Build Your Castles in the Air provides a business improvement philosophy ringing true to the soul, resonating with values inherent in us all. Author Chuck Hansen applies quotes from Henry David Thoreau's timeless masterpiece Walden to the most vexing dilemmas of the 21st Century corporate world, and adds reflections from Hansen's own experiences, in national politics, Fortune 500 companies, living in the Caribbean and crossing the North Atlantic in a sailboat. The whole is a simple yet powerful reference tool, containing enduring wisdom, humor, hope, and, moreover, a means to integrate purpose, integrity and authenticity into modern life. "I love Thoreau and I especially love this inspirational treatment of his work." -Dr. Wayne Dyer NY Times #1 best-selling author "Read this book and bring balance and genuine success-the type that truly matters-into your life." -Honorable Susan Molinari Former member of Congress "Build Your Castles in the Air is a rich reflection and dialogue vehicle for enhancing a sense of purpose, strategy, mission or corporate responsibility." -Victoria Guthrie Senior fellow, Center for Creative Leadership

p.B. J. Whiting savors proverbial expressions and has devoted much of his lifetime to studying and collecting them; no one knows more about British and American proverbs than he. The present volume, based upon writings in British North America from the earliest settlements to approximately 1820, complements his and Archer Taylor's Dictionary of American Proverbs and Proverbial Phrases, 1820-1880. It differs from that work and from other standard collections, however, in that its sources are primarily not "literary" but instead workaday writings - letters, diaries, histories, travel books, political pamphlets, and the like. The authors represent a wide cross-section of the populace, from scholars and statesmen to farmers, shopkeepers, sailors, and hunters. Mr. Whiting has combed all the obvious sources and hundreds of out-of-the-way publications of local journals and historical societies. This body of material, "because it covers territory that has not been extracted and compiled in a scholarly way before, can justly be said to be the most valuable of all those that Whiting has brought together," according to Albert B. Friedman. "What makes the work important is Whiting's authority: a proverb or proverbial phrase is what BJW thinks is a proverb or proverbial phrase. There is no objective operative definition of any value, no divining rod; his tact, 'feel, ' experience, determine what's the real thing and what is spurious."

Musings is a collection of short, easy-reading essays dealing with the challenges of life. Do we take certain beliefs for granted? Are our beliefs distorted by hand-me-down thinking? How can we respond to others with love, acceptance, and compassion? Poetry and humor are interspersed throughout this book's invitation to contemplate a deeper spiritual awareness. If the Beatitudes in the Bible were rewritten today, would we find this one: "Blessed are they whose plans have been foiled, for they shall be given the opportunity to see the world anew"? Readers are suggested to pick one essay a day. Reflect on the deeper messages and chuckle with the lighter moments while you consider choices that can lighten the load of living.

If you want to become and stay fit, don't run to the gym or supplement store without first injecting your mind with the proper mental supplements. After all, the reason most people fail at fitness is because they don't think like a fit person, period!

In an easy to follow, step-by-step, illustrative manner, Timothy Sullivan brilliantly describes the irrefutable psychology and behavior of "the fit person," which are the key distinctions that separate those that become successfully fit from those who do not. Ultimately, this book teaches you "the way of the fit person," so that you will be successful at your chosen fitness program. Never again will there be any mystery to you as to why some people become fit while others wallow in fitness despair. Perhaps the strongest statement that can be made about this book is that, if you are serious and you want to embrace a fit life, it is impossible to read this book, follow it's timeless wisdom, and fail. Don't hesitate another day; give yourself the gift of health now!
