Historia
This book aims to provide you with a step-by-step guide for personal, professional, and organizational growth. The author highlights how certain relationships enable a non-linear growth trajectory. These relationships, in addition to augmenting what we can accomplish, often shape who we become. These relationships are "curve benders," and this book will show you who and where they are, how to find and engage them, and, equally valuable, how you can become a curve bender to impact the lives and livelihoods of others profoundly.

I’ve had the distinct honor to hear David speak on Curve Benders prior to its release. Listening to the book has been phenomenal and I plan to reread, study and apply several sections.
Among the many principles is the network effects of intentional, authentic relationships that enrich our personal and professional lives. If we find ourselves investing in the right relationships, not only will they pay dividends, they will exponentially skyrocket our professional life. I am on the lookout for my next curve bender relationship and I want to thank David for laying out a blueprint and setting a vision for what the right relationships can do to our lives.

Historia
New York Times best-selling authors Newt Gingrich's and William R. Forstchen's George Washington series continues - in a novel about faith, leadership, and the triumph of the American cause. It is 1781, and Washington and his army have spent three years in a bitter stalemate, engaging in near constant skirmishing against the British. The enemy position in New York City is too strong, all approaches blocked by the Royal Navy. But at last, two crucial reports reach Washington....

Thank you Both for writing history and for sharing with us characters that we have either forgotten or under appreciated.
Your history books deepen my American Pride.
And yes, appreciating the French like never before.
I am grateful for learning about the men that played on the stage of history. Their stories themselves are so remarkable, you can't make this stuff up. Thank you for teaching us about them in the manner and method in which you did.

Historia
It’s the near future, and thanks to a perfect storm of reckless banking practices, hyperinflation, a stock market gone mad, and the negligence of our elected officials, the entire social, political, and economic infrastructure of America has collapsed. Chaos reigns in the streets, medical treatment is no longer available, and a silent coup has placed a dangerous group of men at the helm of a false government. America’s fate is in the hands of those few individuals who have the survival skills, the faith, and the forethought to return this country to the state its founding fathers intended.

Historia
In his four years since joining the Senate, Rand Paul has risen to the forefront of the national discussion. He's being called "the most interesting man in politics" by TIME magazine. When Senator Paul believes in an issue, he reaches across the aisle to collaborate with his colleagues. He's worked with Senator Kirsten Gillibrand on an antiwar bill, a financial assistance for childcare bill, and a protection for women in the military bill.

If Rand doesn't cast the American Net wide enough, no one can.
Revisado: 06-16-15
America can Win. Rand is very knowledgeable, classical and current. He understands the depth of domestic and foreign issues like no one else that has articulated to date.
I thought we needed an executive experience, like the hardened Scott Walker. I enjoyed Scott's recent book and was more convinced of his capability. However, Rand... wow! I've always watched and agreed on his stands, but he shows a depth of insight that I'm convinced he can beat not only the democrats but win this republican primary.
Continue to take your stand Rand, you stand for all of us and impel us to stand as well.

Historia
One fateful day in 1996, after discovering that five freight cars' worth of glittering corn have reaped a tiny profit of $18.16, young Forrest Pritchard vows to save his family's farm. What ensues-through hilarious encounters with all manner of livestock and colorful local characters-is a crash course in sustainable agriculture. Pritchard's biggest ally is his renegade father, who initially questions his son's career choice and rejects organic foods for sugary mainstream fare.

Revisado: 06-14-15
Great book easy to listen to. Great antidotes throughout. You could tell Forrest enjoyed thinking of the right words to bring the farm and his experience to life.
It left me encouraged to think more generational family farms could be rescued.
It left me thinking about the relationship between the urban and the rural.

Historia
In 2010, Scott Walker was elected governor of Wisconsin with a mandate to improve its economy and restore fiscal responsibility. With the state facing a $3.6 billion budget deficit, he proposed a series of reforms to limit the collective bargaining power of public employee unions, which was costing taxpayers billions in pension and health care costs. The reaction was swift and severe. Angry protesters gathered outside the capitol, teacher unions accused him of sabotaging education, and the media descended on Wisconsin to make it a national controversy.

Get to know the governors faith and courage
Revisado: 05-18-15
I knew about the public collective bargaining agreements before this book and the subsequent protests. What I did not know, was the governor's faith and how the man responded day to day. He led the legislature through principles and courage. Wisconsin is a realistic model for other states when developing principled and fair policies.
It took perseverance to not become discouraged when the state senators did not act with courage. He weathered the storm and came out stronger. He's the type of leader we need in Washington.

If you want to change the world in a net positive way, become informed on how to bring the connected collective together and be emboldened to lead and change. Thank you for an amazing book.

Historia
The Russian Revolution of 1917 was a key turning point in the history of modern Europe and the world. For much of the 20th century, politics were defined by attitudes to what had taken place in Russia in 1917. To understand the Russian Revolution, then, is to understand a key building block of modern history and the contemporary world.

How the party's changed based on factions and ideology was interesting, just as much as the soil conditions, power over the serfs, property rights (land), war and diseases. It's amazing to see the perfect storm and a strong man that can give promises can do.
It concerns me when men want to capitalize on a crisis and to promise the world only to get to power and suppress the people that believed the promise.
It was interesting to learn about Kiev, Crimea and Donetsk during this period and how 100 years ago, Putin wants to return to (not to mention to be the 3rd and only Roman Empire

In this course, Thomas F. Madden offers a history of the culture that developed out of the ancient Roman Empire throughout the Middle Ages. The story begins at the end of the Roman Empire in the third century AD and continues over the next 1000 years. Professor Madden leads a discussion covering the aftermath and influence of this extraordinary empire. Europeans now saw a world in which nothing stood between them as the last remnant of free Christendom and the ever-growing powers of Islam.

No doubt, Constantinople was the central theme throughout. It was important to hear its successes against multi year sieges and the riches and central power it yielded. Crusades made an important theme for several lectures as well.
The end of the lectures came too soon and I was clamoring to learn about the Russian History and its associated legacy.
I intend to learn more about the crusades and the paralleled Russian state of the 1200-1400s as it will provide context to better understand today.
