It wasn’t because they weren’t smart, talented people. They were. The problem was that in all of their years of school, no one had taken the time to teach them how to learn things efficiently. I want to change that. Because here’s a secret… If you study correctly, not only is it MUCH less work, but you’ll also get WAY better grades (and perhaps even have a bit of fun). Take it from me… I have two bachelor’s degrees and a master’s degree. While I was getting my master’s degree, I had three jobs. And let me tell you something: if you have three jobs while you’re getting a master’s degree, you are virtually forced to come up with some study hacks or you’ll go insane! I was also a college instructor for many years, and during that time, I was working as a professional tutor. All told, I’ve coached hundreds and hundreds of students into better grades. Now I want to teach you. What will you learn? Discover how to cut study time in HALF. Who really likes to study? Not me! Luckily, you probably don’t have to be studying nearly as much as you probably are right now. Because here’s a secret: the top students don’t study as much. They just study more effectively. Understand the MINDSET of an ultra-successful student. There are tons of different study strategies out there. However… Most of those strategies can’t be applied to everyone. Want to know why? Because studying isn’t about flash cards or formulas or any other “tip”. Studying the right way is a whole different type of approach. It’s a WAY of learning, remembering, and interacting. Even more than that, studying the right way includes a lot more than just preparing for tests. There are social, biological and psychological elements to it. To really study like an A+ student, you have to change the way you THINK about school. Learn 19 study habits that will totally reshape how you think about school. Here are just a few of the things you’ll learn. How to write papers in half the time Why you shouldn’t take notes in class The best way to talk to your professors What you should eat before a test How thinking dirty thoughts can help you learn Why everything you’ve been told about Wikipedia is wrong When you should be reading (hint: it’s not after class) How professors grade you Why your body loves to learn when it’s tired Exactly how many sources it takes to write a killer paper And much, much more! And guys… these only take FIVE minutes.

    No new cells. No major changes. If you grew up depressed, angry, sad, aggressive, or nasty, you'd be that way for life. And, as you grew older, there'd be nowhere to go but down, as disease, age, or injury wiped out precious, irreplaceable brain cells. But over the past five, ten, twenty years, all that's changed. Using fMRI and PET scanning technology, neuroscientists can now look deep inside the human brain and they've discovered that it's amazingly flexible, resilient, and plastic. Pictures of the Mind: What the New Neuroscience Tells Us About Who We Are shows you what they've discovered and what it means to all of us. Through author Miriam Boleyn-Fitzgerald's masterfully written narrative and use stunning imagery, you'll watch human brains healing, growing, and adapting to challenges. You'll gain powerful new insights into the interplay between environment and genetics, begin understanding how people can influence their own intellectual abilities and emotional makeup, and understand the latest stunning discoveries about coma and "locked-in" syndrome. You'll learn about the tantalizing discoveries that may lead to cures for traumatic brain injury, stroke, emotional disorders, PTSD, drug addiction, chronic pain, maybe even Alzheimer's. Boleyn-Fitzgerald shows how these discoveries are transforming our very understanding of the "self," from an essentially static entity to one that can learn and change throughout life and even master the art of happiness.

    This is the first step.Featuring new and updated information and studies, including an introduction by actress Claudia Christian, the second edition of The Cure for Alcoholism delivers exactly what millions of alcoholics and families of alcoholics have been hoping for: a painless, dignified, and medically proven cure for their addiction. Backed by 82 clinical trials and research that extends back to 1964, The Sinclair Method deploys an opiate-blocking medication in a very specific way—in combination with ongoing drinking—to extinguish the addictive “software” in the brain. The de-addiction process rolls back the addictive mechanism in the brain to its original pre-addicted state—before the first drink was consumed, making this program an actual cure for alcoholism.Drs. Roy Eskapa and David Sinclair of The Sinclair Method have put together a sound scientific book that proves that with this particular method, alcoholism can be cured in more than 78 percent of patients. What’s more, the treatment avoids the dangerous withdrawal symptoms, allowing patients to detox gradually and safely while they are still drinking. This removes the need for expensive and unpleasant inpatient rehabilitation programs. Actual drinking levels and cravings automatically decrease until control over alcohol is restored. The bottom line is that patients can control their drinking or stop altogether with the simple yet powerful process outlined in The Cure for Alcoholism.Including a new introduction by actress Claudia Christian about The Sinclair Method’s impact on her life, updated trial information, and a letter explaining the treatment that can be given to doctors by patients, The Cure for Alcoholism is a revolutionary book for anyone who wants to gain control over drinking.

    and to life.As coaches to some of golf's top players, Pia Nilsson and Lynn Marriott have designed and refined a revolutionary way of teaching the game, with phenomenal results. They don't believe in prescribing the same stance, grip, and swing to everyone, followed by hours of purposeless drilling. They don't even believe in beginning with physical technique. Their success has proven to them that a great game begins with a great vision.Unlike any other golf book, Every Shot Must Have a Purpose offers cutting-edge techniques for integrating the physical, technical, mental, emotional, and social parts of a player's game. The book's revolutionary pre-shot routine will improve your focus, leading to a golf swing that is not only successful but can be repeated under extreme pressure. Emphasizing the individual golfer rather than a rigid set of mechanics, their VISION54 method takes the frustration out of the game. Why 54? Because they believe it's possible to shoot a 54 (making a birdie on every hole of a par-72 course) if you have the right mind-set and well-honed intuitive power.An engaging read for the beginner or the seasoned golfer, Every Shot Must Have a Purpose is inspiration for life, not just the links.
