Brett McKay - 2019
    Undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. Prodigious, powerful boxer who won 50 of his 58 fights -- 44 by knockout. Lesser known is how Tyson became one of the fiercest fighters of all time. The absolutely improbable tale began when a troubled young kid met a cantankerous old trainer at a small boxing gym in the sleepy town of Catskill, New York. Cus D'Amato would change the whole trajectory of Tyson's life, teaching him everything he knew about success in and out of the ring, before dying just a year before his protege became the youngest heavyweight champion of the world at the age of 20. How did this hard-boiled trainer turn a kid who'd been abandoned by his parents, mercilessly bullied, and imprisoned for dozens of crimes, into a pedigree pugilist? How did he take an unfocused, insecure, lost young man and turn him into a champion who lived to train, fought with an unconquerable spirit, and positively lusted after victory? Cus did it by teaching Tyson the way of the warrior monk -- the art of focus and ferocity. In this short and punchy book, we uncover the five universally-applicable strategic principles of Cus' philosophy. Included are details on: The contents of Cus's library, and the books he gave Tyson to read Tyson's training routine The mental affirmations and tactics Cus shared with Tyson to strengthen his mind Cus's approach to making fear your friend instead of your foe No matter what kind of fight you're in, the savage wisdom of one of boxing's greatest minds will help you come out the victor.

Introduction to Gnosis: Gnostic Methods for Today's World


Samael Aun Weor - 1961
    Their methods of self-reliance and their sublime knowledge profoundly impacted society, such that the dominant powers felt threatened and the tradition was forced to disappear from public view. Now, after centuries of obscurity, the Gnostics have re-emerged, still carrying their profound message of Gnosis: knowledge of self and the Divine. In a simple and elegant way, Samael Aun Weor explains the basic methodology for people in today's world to begin to approach the greater mysteries of the Gnostics. In this basic and practical guide, Samael Aun Weor offers a breadth of exercises guiding the reader to discover within themselves a wealth of insight and understanding. Gnosis, after all, is Greek for "knowledge," and the seeker is told, "Know thyself, and thou shalt know the universe and its Gods." "A great author deduced that the human being needs eight important things in life: health and the conservation of life, nourishment, sleep, money and the things money can buy, life in the beyond, sexual satisfaction, the well-being of his children, and a sense of proper importance. We synthesize these eight things into three: Health, Money, Love. If you really want to acquire these three things, you should study and practice everything that this course teaches you. We will show you the path of success." - Samael Aun Weor
