Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this inspirational fiction, the author talks about the unlimited power and potential lying dormant in every soul, waiting to be awakened. The moment we become aware of the power within, we stop being a victim of circumstances, get off the autopilot called fate and take the reins of life in our hands. 'I Have The Controls' is about the journey of a boy from a small town who realises his dream of becoming a pilot, learns the lessons of life on the way and goes on to inspire others to follow their dreams. His Flying Instructor implants wisdom into the flying lessons and teaches him to take the flight of faith. The book shows the way - how, by aligning personal desires to the benefit of mankind, it is possible to lead a deeply rich and satisfying life. Manish Kumar has penned this extremely enjoyable story using flying as a metaphor. Peppered with the author's insights, this book is sure to touch and inspire you to break the shackles of self-limiting beliefs and to take off in life. Foreword by John Harricharan: I lead a hectic life and generally cannot answer the tens of thousands of emails that come to me every month. Much as I would like to respond, it's almost practically impossible. And so it was that I came upon a note sent to me by Manish Kumar. I don't quite remember when it started, but I kept seeing his name here and there, sometimes on my FaceBook page, other times through something a dear friend, Yasminder Verdi, would mention in an email. And that is how I got to know Manish. It is not that we had met or had daily conversations. After all, he lives on the other side of the planet from where I am. It's more like his spirit was shining so brightly through his words and across the miles that I had to stop and take note. I am happy, very happy that I did. Why am I happy about this? Because I was given an opportunity to discover a rare treasure. You see, Manish had written a book called "I Have the Controls." He was kind enough to send me a draft copy to look at. I thought I would just glance through it, but then, as I started reading, I could not put it down. Manish uses the metaphor of flying to bring us some of the most life-affirming messages possible. In simple language, he leads us into a world where we find the gentle hints of that which we need to know. His chapter, "It's all about balance" as well as his formula for success, which he refers to as "IVR" would help anyone to reach goals that may have seemed unreachable. And, NO, I will not tell you what "IVR" stands for. You will have to find out for yourself and experience the thrill of discovery, just as I did. You will be happy that you found the formula. In some ways, "I Have the Controls" reminds me of one of my favorite authors, Richard Bach. Richard's books such as "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" and "Illusions" sit in a special place on my favorite bookshelf. I go there often for guidance and wisdom. Manish's book will be on that same special bookshelf. My suggestion is that you get yourself a copy of this book and read and reread it. I think you'll find the answers to problems that have been challenging you for quite a while. And while you are at it, pick up a copy for someone near and dear to you. Share it with those you love. They will be grateful, very grateful. Thank you, Manish. Thank you for sharing your insights with us. Thank you for writing a book that has the potential to change many lives. And thank you for giving me the opportunity to read it. I look forward to reading your future books. I am sure many others will, also. John Harricharan is a world-renowned speaker, mentor, life teacher, author of the bestseller When You Can Walk On Water, Take the Boat and an incredible human being. "John Harricharan leads us along the enchanted path of enlightenment with magic, charm, love and compassion." -Dr. Deepak Chopra, author and spiritual guru.

Book excerpt: An empty nest does not have to be an empty life. Judy Holland shows you how to get back in touch with yourself, your partner, your life, AND your kids when the house is less-populated. The transition to the empty nest creates a void that can catapult you into existential crisis. Your zeal for climbing the career ladder, striving for social status, and collecting material things starts to subside, as is common in middle age. Friends and relatives may suffer from illness or pass away, bringing jarring reminders of mortality that trigger a need to make sense of it all. HappiNest helps you traverse this passage with grace by distilling the latest social science research and drawing from hundreds of interviews with those who have gone before you. Whether you’re seeking a renaissance in your romantic relationship, dealing with a boomerang child at home, or figuring out how to support aging parents, this book is for you. HappiNest explores a variety of challenges that arise when the house is suddenly empty or emptying, and Judy Holland provides tips and tools for managing the emotions and realities of this new life stage. From dealing with friends, career transitions, rekindling love or leaving a marriage, to reconnecting with genuine interests and passions, this road map will help guide you. There are hills, valleys, thickets, briar patches, and ditches ahead, as well as waterfalls that resolve into pristine ponds. With mindfulness, hard work, and knowledge of experiences, research, and wisdom from seasoned empty nesters, you can create the most golden phase of your life.

Book excerpt: A poetic and nuanced exploration of the human experience of flight that reminds us of the full imaginative weight of our most ordinary journeys—and reawakens our capacity to be amazed. The twenty-first century has relegated airplane flight—a once remarkable feat of human ingenuity—to the realm of the mundane. Mark Vanhoenacker, a 747 pilot who left academia and a career in the business world to pursue his childhood dream of flight, asks us to reimagine what we—both as pilots and as passengers—are actually doing when we enter the world between departure and discovery. In a seamless fusion of history, politics, geography, meteorology, ecology, family, and physics, Vanhoenacker vaults across geographical and cultural boundaries; above mountains, oceans, and deserts; through snow, wind, and rain, renewing a simultaneously humbling and almost superhuman activity that affords us unparalleled perspectives on the planet we inhabit and the communities we form.

Book excerpt: Trusting Your Autopilot was written by a United Airlines pilot who's been flying commercial planes for forty years. But this is no ordinary pilot. Scott Kaye is not only one of the fewer than three hundred Boeing 747 captains in the United States, but he's also among a handful of pilots throughout the world who are licensed to fly the biggest planes into the most difficult airports and terrain. Trusting Your Autopilot has as many layers as the earth's atmosphere itself. There is no other book quite like it, for within its many anecdotes are not just one book but several books, all with special appeal. It is: An adventurous memoir of a veteran pilot who's seen it all. An engine fire? He's been there. A near collision with a mountain? Done that. Handcuffing a belligerent passenger? Yep. The loss of a good friend on 9/11? That too. An inspiring "self-help" book that's a metaphor for life and how to live it. Throughout the book Kaye draws meaningful lessons from flying that can be applied to our own personal journeys, such as "Follow your autopilot," "Know when to abort your takeoff" "Cobb your power," and other insights that deepen and transcend the narrative itself. A metaphysical "meditation" on the higher realms of life, as they reveal themselves through aviation experiences, including the Law of Attraction, the Law of Reciprocity, and human connectivity. It's a lofty view from 30,000 feet in the air, and Kaye translates it into every aspect of human experience. A close-up look at the pilot "personality" and the various characters to whom passengers entrust their lives, including the "Hat Nazi" and "The Mummy," and a colorful portrait of the pilot's lifestyle, including jet lag, layovers, pranks in the cockpit and the vagaries of "life in the aluminum tube" (who ever thought that "pee control" would be one of a pilot's most valued skills?). And a glimpse into what pilots love (kids visiting the cockpit), what they hate (delays - just like the rest of us), and what they talk about (UFOs, for one). A behind-the scenes look at commercial aviation including company politics, close calls you never knew you had, the most dangerous airports, weather that threatens your flight, plus the author's perspective on several major airline disasters, including a new take on the mysterious disappearance of Malaysia Flight 370. 1) A practical and informative "technical" guide for the curious that explains deicing, landings, those waving flaps on the wings, and much more, but all in a user-friendly style integrated with the stories. 2) And finally and incidentally, a guide for those interested in pursuing a career in aviation, including challenges and hurdles and how to overcome them, training, and the critical role of seniority. All of this - the stories, secrets, and insights are blended together in a book that will appeal to everyone who has ever flown on an airplane. In the United States, that's 80 percent of the population, or 250,000,000 people - and every one of them has asked themselves questions about flying, planes, and pilots, that have never been answered. Kaye answers those questions along with questions they never even thought to ask, but the answers to which will intrigue, inform, amuse, and even inspire them. [Trusting Your Autopilot is the second in a planned series of three books. It includes numerous photographs on a wide range of subjects, including planes, weather phenomenon, airports, heroes and even an occasional villain]
