Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How I Slept My Way to the Middle winningly combines never-before-heard stories featuring A-list entertainers with fan favorites and Kevin’s own thoughts about how he made it. He turned down his first invitation to do stand-up on The Tonight Show because he knew that he’d make a bigger impact if he sat on the couch next to Johnny. That huge risk—which paid off in spades—was just the beginning. Find out how he brought John Belushi to his knees, tortured Paul Reiser (twice), bamboozled Larry King, stole Alan Arkin’s soul, almost killed Warren Beatty, and sucked face with Robert DeNiro’s girlfriend. Now a new media entrepreneur, he’s laughing proof that if you follow your gut and believe in yourself, you can do anything you want—except have a rational conversation with Rip Torn, who’s an evil, paranoid $#!%.

Book excerpt: The #1 New York Times Bestseller: “A hilarious take on that age-old problem: getting the beloved child to go to sleep” (NPR). “Hell no, you can’t go to the bathroom. You know where you can go? The f**k to sleep.” Go the Fuck to Sleep is a book for parents who live in the real world, where a few snoozing kitties and cutesy rhymes don’t always send a toddler sailing blissfully off to dreamland. Profane, affectionate, and radically honest, it captures the familiar—and unspoken—tribulations of putting your little angel down for the night. Read by a host of celebrities, from Samuel L. Jackson to Jennifer Garner, this subversively funny bestselling storybook will not actually put your kids to sleep, but it will leave you laughing so hard you won’t care.

Vivian Lau, President, JA Asia Pacific LimitedHaving grown up in Hong Kong and Australia and educated in France, Enoch Li always had international aspirations. By her 28th birthday, she had achieved everything she had ever laboured toward. Her mum was speechlessly proud of her financial earnings, she had a supportive and loving romantic partner, and she had lots of friends who adored her. So why did she feel as though something was missing?One could hardly guess that a strong, successful young woman who travelled the world, lived in multiple cities, had a high paying salary and had rocketed up the corporate ladder, would one day crumble to pieces, so hopeless and devastated that she believed life was no longer worth living.In Stress in the City, Enoch Li shares her experiences at the top of the corporate game, reflects on the warning signs she refused to see, and documents her journey back from the edge through the rediscovery of her inner child.Enoch also discusses how companies can help their executives be mentally and emotionally well through her research into the psychology of playfulness, workplace burnout, and company culture.You might just find that the toys around us may be more meaningful than you think Trigger are proud to announce Theinspirationalseries partner to their innovative Pullingthetrigger range.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Travelling in West Africa by public transport, Sihle Khumalo turned a wish list into an itinerary. The plans for his trip were lean on practical detail, but grand in concept: Visit five World Heritage Sites listed by UNESCO for their historical and cultural significance. Having never set foot in Sénégal, Mali, Burkina Faso, Benin or Togo, Sihle planned to inform himself about Francophone Africa as he went along. Had he pondered the implications of not speaking French in a part of the world where it is the lingua franca, or what the public transport might be like there, he might have set off less bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. But Sihle is not one to be deterred by setbacks and deadends. His flexibility, irrepressible optimism and robust sense of humour, coupled with an unexpected sensitivity towards his host countries, see him reach all his goals – or almost.

It is the story of a child desperate to survive despite the adversities within a dysfunctional family. It is also the story of Joseph Rozeau, who survived years of abuse and neglect to forge his own path. The atrocities he experienced created a vicious cycle that followed him through the better part of his life, until a series of events forced him to realize the need to break the cycle. Taking stock of his life and his future, Joseph worked hard to change his thinking and his behaviour. By breaking the cycle, he was able to understand the detriment he was doing to himself and consciously change his behaviours for the better. I Slept With and Divorced My Devils recounts how a young child survived parents with psychiatric disorders, alcohol addiction, and domestic violence issues. How he and his siblings were failed by his extended family, the child welfare system, and despite the odds, was able to become a police officer and provide a stable home for his own child. He endured many hardships and failures to finally to reach a state where he could let go of the past, take responsibility for his decisions, and envision a positive future....

Book excerpt: I began in a cold dark muddy cell, not knowing how to free myself. Feeling trapped by the coldness within the air, darkness was swallowing me up. In reality I'm a lost soul, no freedom, no happiness and no way of fi nding peace, I feel like I am in hell itself, with no way out. He left, with no warning at all, at that moment I fell into deep despair, not knowing what to do or where to go. Is there such a thing as a lush green fi eld of freedom, can I fi nd it?
