Napoleon Hills Self Confidence Formula
$14.95Add to cartYour formula to build a strong sense of self-worth so that you can better recognize opportunity, take action on your dreams, and enhance your resilience.
A lack of self-confidence is one of the greatest maladies of today’s world, one that is responsible for the rampant helplessness, lack of self-control, aimlessness, procrastination, and despair that characterize modern society. But as the venerable steel magnate Andrew Carnegie emphasized to Hill, “Confidence is a state of mind, necessary to succeed, and the starting point of developing self-confidence is definiteness of purpose.”
The time for self-doubt and self-criticism is over. Your faith in yourself and your abilities determines whether you fail or succeed. Napoleon Hill’s Self-Confidence Formula enables you to boost your self-confidence through the application of Hill’s strategies for controlling your thoughts. By implementing these principles, you will not only be able to operate at a higher plane of thought and action–attracting more opportunities, gaining influence, and strengthening relationships–but you will also be able to instill this critical quality in others.
Napoleon Hill’s Self-Confidence Formula gives you the keys to success and fulfillment by equipping you to:
*unlearn fears, insecurities, and limitations acquired in childhood and adolescence
*condition your mind to believe in the certainty of your success
*take bold, confident action on your definite chief aim
*conquer your inferiority complex through the mastermind principle
*build the self-reliance and self-esteem of today’s youthYou are now on the journey to confident, purposeful living. As you implement Hill’s principles, you will cultivate a state of mind primed to accept the abundance reserved for you.

Institutional Intelligence : How To Build An Effective Organization
$28.99Add to cartInstitutions matter. But we often view them somewhat cynically, perhaps as a necessary evil.
In truth, institutions remain essential to human flourishing. They are the very means by which communities thrive, individual vocations are fulfilled, and society is changed for the good. We all must learn the wisdom of working effectively within institutions-what Gordon Smith calls institutional intelligence.
In this book Smith unlocks the essential elements of how institutions function in a productive, healthy manner. Focusing on the nonprofit sector, he shows how team leaders, directors, executives, board members, key stakeholders, and employees can avoid what is often their greatest source of stress on the job-working with the institutional character of their organizations.
Church staff, educators, and those in service agencies can all thrive by understanding these dynamics instead of fighting against them. By developing institutional intelligence, we and those around us can not only flourish personally but also fulfill a larger mission.

Accountability Circle : Discovering Your True Purpose, Potential, And Impac
$19.99Add to cart“We are responsible for things…but we are accountable to people. When we discover our own unique purpose, and then make and keep personal commitments that support that purpose, that is accountability. If everyone in the Accountability Circle makes and keeps those commitments, then accountability becomes a way of life.” -Sam Silverstein
THE ACCOUNTABILITY CIRCLE gives you a trusted group of Accountability Partners for your life, your career, and your business. They support you in identifying and acting on your Purpose, your Mission, and your Values…and you support them in turn.
THE ACCOUNTABILITY CIRCLE is where you go to become the best person you can be. It is much more than a mastermind group. It goes far deeper than networking and sharing best business practices. It is about becoming a truly accountable person and a leader in your own life.
THE ACCOUNTABILITY CIRCLE goes far beyond your current “circle of friends” … and creates a powerful group of allies who are focused on your best interests, based on your unique purpose and mission.
THE ACCOUNTABILITY CIRCLE is the ultimate personal development strategy and the critical leadership advantage.
We all want to reach our potential, become the best version of ourselves, and get the most we possibly can out of life. We all want to maximize our impact and leave a legacy that inspires other people to be their best.For most of us, the problem is not that we are not trying to be our best. The real problem is that we are unable to see and understand fully what our very best can be. We may think that we have to create our own solutions and cannot ask for help.
However, this vision of a self-reliant accountability is wrong. In fact, everything we have been taught about accountability is wrong. Accountability is not about having to prove ourselves, create some original idea, or live an independent life, and it is certainly not about “holding others accountable.” Quite the contrary-accountability is all about commitments and interdependence. We need other people to help us to be our very best, and we need to help other people to be their very best. It is in helping others fulfill their potential that we identify and achieve our own true potential!
Action always comes with belief. When you begin taking action with full accountability in your Accountability Circle, you will begin to see people differently, show up differently, commit differently, and bring people into your life diffe

Harnessing The Power Of Tension (Audio CD)
$29.99Add to cartThe word tension comes from the Latin word tendere, which means “to stretch.” It’s not a bad thing to be stretched in our careers, our parenting, our ministries, or our leadership. Without tension, we become stagnant and stop growing. In fact, we might even say that tension is both inevitable and, in many cases, desirable in life and leadership.
In Harnessing the Power of Tension: Stretched but Not Broken, international leadership consultant Sam Chand examines tension as it arises in and between the arenas of business, church, and family. The presence of tension isn’t a flaw in you or a threat from others. It’s not a problem to solve, but a strain to be used. When you develop this perspective and you encounter tension, you’ll be less confused and feel less guilty because you understand that tension isn’t the result of your error or flaw. You’ll experience less pressure to figure everything out and less compulsion to resolve it quickly and completely.
When we accept tension as a reality of life, we gain confidence and mental clarity when we encounter it. Our focus isn’t on getting rid of tension, but using it to create something better than before. We don’t walk on eggshells, afraid to say the wrong thing. We learn when to speak up, when to ask questions, when to listen, and when to let things go. As we relax in the middle of tension, we see people and situations more clearly, and we invite our families and teams into the process of creatively using tension in life and leadership.

Lo Que Los Exitosos Piensan – (Spanish)
$14.99Add to cart“Tu puedes ser uno de ellos… Dejame develarte sus secretos. He atendido a miles de personas en los ultimos aos. He tenido el gusto de ver como crecen y aprenden, asi como algunos se detienen y fracasan. Pero he visto patrones iguales en los que tienen exito, para lo que piensan, hacen, buscan y disfrutan. Tu podras ver como las personas exitosas usan una matriz de pensamiento antes de actuar.”- Hector Teme
En Lo que piensan los exitosos, el autor te mostrara profundidades desde la cima. Entre muchas cosas mas aprenderas que las personas exitosas:
Ya no piensan en acciones, sino en estrategias.
No piensan en conocerlo todo, sino que viven comprometidos con entender y caminar en el aprendizaje constante.
No piensan desde la circunstancia, sino desde la conviccion.
No piensan desde la solucion de los problemas, sino desde la busqueda de oportunidades para ampliarse en el medio de la duda.
No piensan solamente en como van a accionar o reaccionar a lo que esta pasando, sino en como van a hacer para que lo que este pasando los lleve a la vision extraordinaria.
Los exitosos son antes de hacer, vuelan antes de caminar, hablan antes de pensar.
“You can be one of them…. Let me reveal their secrets. I have served thousands of people in the past few years. I have had the pleasure of seeing how they grow and learn, as well as some who stop and fail. But I have seen the same patterns in which they succeed; what they think, do, seek, and enjoy. You will be able to see how successful people use a thinking matrix before acting.” -Hector Teme
In What Successful People Think, the author will show you depths from the top. Among many other tips, you will learn that successful people:
Do not think about actions but about strategies.
Do not think about knowing everything but live committed to understanding and walking in continual learning.
Do not think from circumstances but from conviction.
Do not think from the solution of problems but from the search for opportunities to expand in the midst of doubt.
Do not only think about how they are going to act or react to what is happening, but also about how they are going to make what is happening lead them to an extraordinary vision.
Are before they do; fly before they walk; speak before they think.

New Thinking New Future (Audio CD)
$29.99Add to cart“The way leaders think matters-it matters a lot. The problem is that we almost universally make a colossal subconscious assumption that the way we think is the only possible way to consider our situations…. It’s like our minds are running antiquated software that’s slow, glitchy, and unproductive-but it’s all we’ve ever known. We need to upgrade the software in our heads!”-Sam Chand
With candor, humor, and personal stories, Sam peels back the layers of our assumptions to challenge us to think more deeply, more clearly, and more productively than ever before. He addresses fundamental topics all leaders instinctively address, including security, location, ownership, team, growth, and benchmarks of success. And he provides questions that leaders can ask themselves to develop New Thinking for a New Future.

Aprovecha El Poder De Las Tens – (Spanish)
$15.99Add to cartLa palabra tension proviene de la palabra latina tendere, que significa “estirar”. No es malo estirarnos en nuestras carreras, nuestra crianza de los hijos, nuestros ministerios o nuestro liderazgo. Sin tension, nos estancamos y dejamos de crecer. De hecho, podriamos decir que la tension es inevitable y, en muchos casos, deseable en la vida y el liderazgo.
En Aprovecha el poder de las tensiones: estirado pero no roto, el consultor internacional de liderazgo, Sam Chand, examina la tension a medida que surge en y entre los ambitos de negocios, iglesia y familia. La presencia de tension no es un defecto en ti o una amenaza de los demas. No es un problema para resolver, sino un recurso para utilizar. Cuando desarrolles esta perspectiva y encuentres tension, estaras menos confundido y te sentiras menos culpable porque entiendes que la tension no es el resultado de un error o un fallo tuyos. Experimentaras menos presion para resolver todo y menos compulsion para resolverlo rapida y completamente.
Cuando aceptamos la tension como una realidad de la vida, ganamos confianza y claridad mental ante ella. Nuestro objetivo no es deshacernos de la tension, sino usarla para crear algo mejor que antes. No caminamos sobre cascaras de huevo, por miedo a decir algo incorrecto. Aprendemos cuando hablar, cuando hacer preguntas, cuando escuchar y cuando dejar ir las cosas. A medida que nos relajamos en medio de la tension, vemos a las personas y las situaciones mas claramente, e invitamos a nuestras familias y equipos al proceso de utilizar creativamente la tension en la vida y el liderazgo.

Secuencia Hacia El Exito – (Spanish)
$14.99Add to cartTodos llegamos a algun lugar en la vida debido a tres cosas: alguien nos observa, forma una opinion sobre nosotros y decide darnos una oportunidad… o no. Nosotros hacemos lo mismo con los demas. Las personas han jugado este papel esencial en nuestras vidas, y nosotros lo jugamos en la vida de quienes nos rodean, y no importa cuanta habilidad tengamos, podemos jugar aun mejor.
La secuencia se aplica en los negocios, la iglesia, los matrimonios, la paternidad y las amistades. A menudo evaluamos a otros en un abrir y cerrar de ojos. Percibimos instintivamente la expresion de la cara de alguien, el tono de voz o el lenguaje corporal que es consistente o diferente de sus palabras. Reaccionamos a nuestra observacion, pero rara vez nos detenemos a analizar antes de responder; simplemente sucede inmediatamente. Observamos y tenemos una opinion, y en base a lo que hemos determinado en ese segundo, le damos a la persona una oportunidad de relacionarse con nosotros, o cerramos la puerta y permanecemos vigilantes.
Secuencia del exito es un libro de liderazgo, pero no se limita a las empresas, presidentes, directores generales o pastores principales. Es para todos los que tienen una posicion de influencia en la vida de otra persona, y eso nos incluye a todos. En este libro, Sam Chand saca a la luz nuestras suposiciones subconscientes. Con mas perspicacia y confianza, tomaras mejores decisiones para avanzar a las personas que te rodean… o tal vez mostrarles la puerta. Estos principios tambien te ayudan a ser mas consciente de que las personas te estan observando y formando opiniones sobre ti, abriendo o cerrando puertas de oportunidad.
Every one of us gets anywhere in life due to three things: someone observes us, forms an opinion about us, and decides to give us an opportunity…or not. Likewise, we do the same with others. People have played this essential role in our lives, and we play it in the lives of those around us–and no matter how skilled we’ve become, we can play it even better.
This sequence applies in business, church, marriages, parenting, and friendships. We often assess others in the blink of an eye. We instinctively notice the look on someone’s face, their tone of voice, or their body language as consistent or different from the words being spoken. We react to our observation, but we seldom stop to analyze before we respond–it just happens. Immediately, we observe and form an opinion, and based on what we’ve determined in that split s

$20.00Add to cartFor young professionals and entrepreneurs, there is no shortage of gurus, processes, and quick-fix formulas to chase in the quest to grow their business, lead their team, and find personal fulfillment. In fact, there are so many out there that it’s exhausting. Wouldn’t it be better to realize that the leadership lessons we need to learn are not out there somewhere, but in here, in our own lives?

You will learn to see what is possible in life and recognize opportunities in the midst of failure in order to benefit from every step you take. Become a success…by failing!

Uncopyable : How To Create An Unfair Advantage Over Your Competition (Expanded)
$15.99Add to cartWhat separates average businesses from extraordinary successful ones? Better product? Nope. Your competitor will rapidly reverse-engineer your “secret sauce” and get their “better-than-you” version on the market faster than you can say “Usain Bolt.”
Better customer service? Guess what? All of your competitors say they provide the best customer service. It’s a wishy washy phrase … a vague generality with no meaningful specific.
Better pricing? You’re kidding, right? The company that lives on price dies on price.
More harsh reality: Almost all industries today struggle with the increasing commoditization of their products and services, putting considerable pressure on prices and margins, leading to fiercer competition.
The Solution?
You must create an Uncopyable Attachment with your customers. They must see you as not only delivering a superior product but also as high-value relationship they simply cannot get anywhere else. In Uncopyable, Steve Miller compellingly argues that new advantage isn’t found by going “oustide the box” – you must actually build your own box. Uncopyable will guide you to achieving an unfair and enduring competitive advantage.

In this book, Sam Chand brings our subconscious assumptions into the light. With more insight and confidence, you’ll make better decisions to advance the people around you…or perhaps show them the door. The principles also help you become more conscious that people are observing you and forming opinions about you that will open or close doors of opportunity.

Prayer Powered Entrepreneur
$17.99Add to cartIn The Prayer Powered Entrepreneur, a 31-day prayer journey, Christian business coach Kim Avery helps entrepreneurs ditch the hurry and worry and instead build a business powered by God.
While Christian entrepreneurs start their days with prayer, the hustle and bustle of running their own businesses quickly takes focus away from their vital partnership with the almighty God. As a result, prayers for business are often broad, unfocused, and strictly tied to the entrepreneur’s vision of ideal results. The Prayer Powered Entrepreneur model walks entrepreneurs through 31 days of recognizing God as CEO through an inside-out system of praying for transformation:
*In themselves
*Their relationship with God
*Their relationship with others
*Their relationship with their business
*Culminating in praying for the impact they want their business to have in the world.
Kim Avery encourages entrepreneurs to keep God at the center of everything, praying in alignment with the things He has already promised, and anticipating His daily activity in their lives. During this month-long journey, business owners learn how to build a better business, live a better life, and make a bigger impact –all through the simple practice of inside-out prayer. -

Do you want to be a better leader? Raise the threshold of your pain. Do you want your church to grow or your business to reach higher goals? Reluctance to face pain is your greatest limitation.

Piensa Diferente Vive Diferent – (Spanish)
$16.99Add to cart“Nuestros procesos de pensamiento son tan familiares, tan arraigados, que no podemos imaginar pensar de una manera nueva. Es como si nuestras mentes estuvieran ejecutando un software anticuado que es lento, con muchas fallas y que es improductivo, pero es todo lo que hemos conocido. !Necesitamos actualizar el software en nuestras cabezas!”- Sam Chand
Algunas personas pensaban que estaban haciendo a Sam Chand “una oferta que no podia rechazar” cuando lo invitaron a hablar en un evento de dos dias en el extranjero. Despues de todo, estaban pagando por vuelos en primera clase y alojamiento tanto para Chand como para su esposa, ademas de pagar un generoso honorario. Pero el no aprovecho la oportunidad. Chand tan solo estaba interesado en “el impacto existencial a largo plazo” en los asistentes. El pregunto: “Todas las actividades me daran la oportunidad de influir en personas influyentes? Puedo ser parte de una experiencia que deje una marca en el liderazgo, en lugar de tan solo un evento de liderazgo? “. En lugar de ganar dinero, Chand estaba interesado en construir relaciones. El estaba pensando de una manera diferente a como ellos pensaban.
Chand seala que nuestras percepciones y patrones de pensamiento determinan nuestras emociones, valores y creencias, lo que influye en como respondemos a las personas y los eventos. A veces, ni siquiera somos conscientes de las razones detras de lo que decimos y hacemos, porque nuestras respuestas pueden estar arraigadas desde la infancia.
Pero Chand cree que todos nosotros podemos tener una manera diferente de pensar que nos permita crear un nuevo futuro. El se ha propuesto ayudar a las personas a pensar mas alla de los objetivos especificos, y considerar los objetivos y los resultados clave, desafiarse a si mismos, hacerse preguntas cruciales y “actualizar el software” en sus cabezas. A traves de este libro, Chand espera ayudar a otros a “pensar de manera mas profunda, mas clara y mas productiva que nunca antes”.
Sam Chand te ofrece una manera de desafiarte a ti mismo, hacer preguntas cruciales y “actualizar el software” en tu cabeza, para desarrollar el pensamiento diferente que pueda crearte un nuevo futuro.
“Our thought processes are so familiar, so ingrained, that we can’t imagine thinking a new way. It’s like our minds are running antiquated software that’s slow, with lots of glitches, and is unproductive, but it’s all we’ve ever known. We need to upgrade the software in our heads!”-Sam Chand

It’s like our minds are running antiquated software that’s slow, with lots of glitches, and is unproductive, but it’s all we’ve ever known. We need to upgrade the software in our heads!”–Sam Chand
Some people thought they made Sam Chand “an offer he couldn’t refuse” when they invited him to speak at a two-day event overseas. After all, they were paying for first-class travel and accommodations for both Chand and his wife, plus throwing in a generous honorarium. But he didn’t jump at the opportunity. Chand was only interested in “the long-term, existential impact” on attendees. He asked, “Will every activity give me the opportunity to influence influencers? And can I be part of a leadership journey instead of just a leadership event?”
Rather than monetary gain, Chand was interested in building relationships. He was thinking in a different way than they were.Chand notes that our perceptions and thinking patterns determine our emotions, values, and beliefs, influencing how we respond to people and events. Sometimes, we are not even aware of the reasons behind what we say and do because our responses may be ingrained from childhood.
But Chand believes all of us can have New Thinking for a New Future. He has set out to help people move beyond specific goals and consider objectives and key results, challenge themselves, ask crucial questions, and “upgrade the software” in their heads. Through this book, Chand hopes to help others “think more deeply, more clearly, and more productively than ever before.”

Wanamakers Temple : The Business Of Religion In An Iconic Department Store
$89.00Add to cartHow a pioneering merchant blended religion and business to create a unique American shopping experience On Christmas Eve, 1911, John Wanamaker stood in the middle of his elaborately decorated department store building in Philadelphia as shoppers milled around him picking up last minute Christmas presents. On that night, as for years to come, the store was filled with the sound of Christmas carols sung by thousands of shoppers, accompanied by the store’s Great Organ. Wanamaker recalled that moment in his diary, “I said to myself that I was in a temple,” a sentiment quite possibly shared by the thousands who thronged the store that night.
Remembered for his store’s extravagant holiday decorations and displays, Wanamaker built one of the largest retailing businesses in the world and helped to define the American retail shopping experience. From the freedom to browse without purchase and the institution of one price for all customers to generous return policies, he helped to implement retailing conventions that continue to define American retail to this day. Wanamaker was also a leading Christian leader, participating in the major Protestant moral reform movements from his youth until his death in 1922. But most notably, he found ways to bring his religious commitments into the life of his store. He focused on the religious and moral development of his employees, developing training programs and summer camps to build their character, while among his clientele he sought to cultivate a Christian morality through decorum and taste.
Wanamaker’s Temple examines how and why Wanamaker blended business and religion in his Philadelphia store, offering a historical exploration of the relationships between religion, commerce, and urban life in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century and illuminating how they merged in unexpected and public ways. Wanamaker’s marriage of religion and retail had a pivotal role in the way American Protestantism was expressed and shaped in American life, and opened a new door for the intertwining of personal values with public commerce. -

It’s hard to be in the minority.If you’re the only person from your ethnic or cultural background in your organization or team, you probably know the challenges of being misunderstood or marginalized. You might find yourself inadvertently overlooked or actively silenced. Even when a work environment is not blatantly racist or hostile, people of color often struggle to thrive-and may end up leaving the organization.Being a minority is not just about numbers. It’s about understanding pain, power, and the impact of the past. Organizational consultant Adrian Pei describes key challenges ethnic minorities face in majority-culture organizations. He unpacks how historical forces shape contemporary realities, and what both minority and majority cultures need to know in order to work together fruitfully. If you’re a cultural minority working in a majority culture organization, or if you’re a majority culture supervisor of people from other backgrounds, learn the dynamics at work. And be encouraged that you can help make things better so that all can flourish. -

Ella determina la receptividad del personal y de los voluntarios a nuevas ideas, desata o inhibe la creatividad, construye o erosiona el entusiasmo, y crea un sentido de orgullo y profundo desaliento sobre trabajar o involucrarse. Finalmente, la cultura de una organizacion, particularmente en iglesias y organizaciones sin fines de lucro, pero tambien en cualquier organizacion, moldea la moral individual, el trabajo de equipo, la efectividad y los resultados.” — del capitulo uno
Con frecuencia, los lideres organizacionales confunden la cultura con la vision y la estrategia, pero son muy diferentes.

Para ayudar en este proceso, tambien, hay una herramienta de evaluacion separada, gratuita, en linea (www.samchandculturesurvey.com).

If you can learn from someone else?s pain and expense, you are a wise person, indeed. I would encourage you to read this book, cover-to-cover, but also keep it as a reference text using the sections and individual columns as a resource you can revisit as your life journey calls for specific wisdom.?
