"Power is what naturally results when everything needless and self-defeating is stripped out of your life.

Does that sound extreme? It is not. It is an open door to change."

(Day 26). In 30 realizable, graspable steps you will reverse years of peer-enforced conformity and self-negation to become who you--rightly--sense you are"--

The People Who Doubted You Are In for the Shock of Their Lives Mitch Horowitz, “a cross between Aleister Crowley and Alan Watts” (Duncan Trussell), delivers this generation’s most literate and liberating self-help book in The Miracle Habits. Mitch shows how to foster a life of revolutionary self-direction through thirteen “Miracle Habits”―radical but workable commitments that allow you to “Spend for Power” (Habit 8), “Get Away from Cruel People” (Habit 6), “Rule In Hell” (Habit 13), and produce fortuitous events surpassing all expectation in career, creativity, relationships, charisma, and self-respect. “This book,” Mitch writes, “is about more than cultivating sanctioned notions of success or acceptance. It is not about being 10% happier, ‘good enough,’ or reorganizing your sock drawer. It is about fostering miracles. Not as a once-in-a-lifetime experience but as a recurring and natural part of life.” Washington “Treats esoteric ideas and movements with an even-handed intellectual studiousness that is too often lost in today’s raised-voice discussions.” Paris “Convincing…takes us far from naive doctrines.” David “Mitch is solid gold.”

Sind wir bereit, das »Unmögliche« in Betracht zu ziehen? Whitley Strieber, bekannt durch sein Werk über Alien-Kontakte, hat sein Leben der Erforschung von Nahbegegnungen gewidmet. Er stellt Fragen nach der Identität und den Absichten der sogenannten »Aliens« oder »Besucher«: Sind sie eine Chance oder eine Gefahr für die Menschheit? In diesem Buch wird erstmals die Perspektive von Soldaten und Zivilisten beleuchtet, die direkten Kontakt hatten, und die Ergebnisse sind explosiv. Strieber nutzt über 30 Jahre Forschung, um ein neues Verständnis des Kontakts zu entwickeln, das helfen könnte, die oft verworrene und belastende Erfahrung zu klären. Er wagt eine düstere, aber hoffnungsvolle Prognose: Das Verständnis des Phänomens könnte das Schicksal der Menschheit verändern. Wir stehen an einem kritischen Wendepunkt: Wenn wir akzeptieren, dass eine nicht menschliche Intelligenz uns möglicherweise seit Jahrtausenden beobachtet, konfrontieren wir eine der größten Herausforderungen unserer Geschichte. Striebers zentrale Botschaft ist, dass die größte Gefahr nicht darin liegt, dass wir nicht allein sind, sondern dass wir uns weigern, das Phänomen ernsthaft zu akzeptieren und zu untersuchen. Prominente Stimmen aus der Wissenschaft und Literatur bezeichnen das Werk als bahnbrechend und von großer Bedeutung für die Neuausrichtung der staatlichen Politik in Bezug auf diese Thematik.
