Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Trophy Effect is an innate, subconscious force that causes human beings to focus on their shortcomings, rather than on their accomplishments. As a result, we are inclined to feel more doubtful than hopeful and are more likely to give up on things rather than stay the course. Moreover, because The Trophy Effect is tied directly to our survival instinct (our "reactionary mind"), it's so well concealed that we don't even know that it's occurring. Therefore, we are not aware that The Trophy Effect is something over which we can exercise full control by simply learning how to do it.

Book excerpt: The Trophy Effect No matter how intelligent, capable, or successful you are, you may question your capabilities or self-worth regularly. You’re more likely to be concerned about falling short than you are to be inclined to anticipate success. That’s just how humans are wired. Author Michael A. Nitti offers a way to change that negative thought process. In The Trophy Effect, he explains the powerful, subconscious force that causes human beings to focus on their shortcomings (what’s wrong) rather than on the positive aspects of their lives (what’s possible). To break free of this dynamic, by stepping beyond your fears, Nitti walks you through a metaphorical journey of your mind, allowing you to not only see clearly the actual source of your self-doubt, but how to access your inherent passion and joy. Presenting a formula for freedom, happiness, and fulfillment, The Trophy Effect takes you on a spiritual experience of self-discovery, leaving you fully empowered to both override your reactive mind and take absolute control of your life forever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of the Schneider Trophy is the history of aircraft development. When Jacques Schneider devised and inaugurated the Coupe d’Aviation Maritime race for seaplanes in 1913, no-one could have predicted the profound effect the Series would have on aircraft design and aeronautical development, not to mention world history. Howard Pixton’s 1914 victory in a Sopwith Tabloid biplane surprisingly surpassed the performance of monoplanes and other manufacturers turned back to biplanes. During The Great War aerial combat was almost entirely conducted by biplanes, with their low landing speeds, rapid climb rates and maneuverability. Post-war the Races resumed in 1920. The American Curtiss racing aircraft set the pattern for the 1920s, making way for Harold Mitchell’s Supermarines in the 1930’s. Having won the 1927 race at Venice Mitchell developed his ground-breaking aircraft into the iconic Spitfire powered by the Rolls-Royce Merlin engine. This new generation of British fighter aircraft were to play a decisive role in defeating the Luftwaffe and thwarting the Nazis’ invasion plans. This is a fascinating account of the air race series that had a huge influence on the development of flight.

Book excerpt: Discover the God-inspired difference only you can make in the world . . . using the key you never knew you had. Tim Tebow credits his mom with being the key to his success--but Pam never expected that she would be known on a national stage. For most of her life, she was serving quietly and faithfully as a wife and a mom--choosing life for her child in the face of medical risks, answering the Lord's call to mission work in the Philippines, and homeschooling before anyone knew what the word meant. But all along the way, her experiences--and her consistent, everyday choices to follow the Lord and to serve wherever He placed her--were creating unexpected ripples of influence throughout her family, her community, and her world. And they would end up extending far beyond anything she ever imagined. Pam believes that every one of us can be influential--and that deep within a woman's heart is the desire to use her influence for good. In Ripple Effects, Pam uncovers and explores the miraculous motivating power of influence we can have on this generation and the next, no matter where we are planted in life. Whether we are in the midst of endless diaper changes, climbing up the corporate ladder, or simply doing our best to live, love, and serve well each day, Pam will encourage us to maximize our God-given opportunities for influence--and watch how far the ripples will spread.

A Comparative Study between the Football Clubs of Hawassa Ketema and Southern Police from Ethiopia written by Abdulkerim Ahmed and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2019 in the subject Health - Sport - Sport Medicine, Therapy, Prevention, Nutrition, grade: A+, Haramaya University, language: English, abstract: The reason why the researcher selected these two clubs is that both clubs are found in Hawassa, they enjoy the same environment, they play their home game on the same pitch, and the only difference that exists between the two clubs is the way how they feed. South Police feeds in the camp while Hawassa Ketema feeds in the hotel. So the researcher wants to know how it affects them. Hence, this study was attempted to answer the following basic research questions. First: What are the daily calorie intakes of the players? Second: What are the major types of diets consumed? Third: Is there a balance between caloric intake and caloric expenditure? Fourth: Do age and body weight of the players is taken in to consideration in the dietary intake? So far no Ethiopian research on the diet and performance of Ethiopian premier league clubs particularly regarded the aspects of nutrition. In Ethiopian premier league history a number of clubs struggled hardly to stay on the league, unfortunately they relegated to the super league on the same year due to different reasons. Majority of the players and coaches are heard when blaming the referee, pitch, training strategy, game tactics, individual technics and weather conditions to lose the game. No one cared about the effect of diet on the outcome of the game. However, like physical training program, if each and every club intended to follow appropriate nutrition program for their players, the expected result would be remarkable. It is clear that nutrition has an effect on sports performance. Sport nutrition is a rapidly growing field and is the science of improving sporting performance by tailoring specific food and fluid recommendations to an athlete. It is known that factors such as dehydration and a lack of energy supply can limit performance. As expressed in Foundation Soccer Coaching Manual, nutrition is an important part of any successful training program. Food is the fuel of athletic performance. Though the coach cannot control his/her athlete's food, rather he/she can guide them toward healthy eating. For this purpose, the coach should be acquainted with the basic of proper nutrition.

Book excerpt: "The most important book at the borderland of psychology and politics that I have ever read."—Martin E. P. Seligman, Zellerbach Family Professor of Psychology at that University of Pennsylvania and author of Learned Optimism Why are we devastated by a word of criticism even when it’s mixed with lavish praise? Because our brains are wired to focus on the bad. This negativity effect explains things great and small: why countries blunder into disastrous wars, why couples divorce, why people flub job interviews, how schools fail students, why football coaches stupidly punt on fourth down. All day long, the power of bad governs people’s moods, drives marketing campaigns, and dominates news and politics. Eminent social scientist Roy F. Baumeister stumbled unexpectedly upon this fundamental aspect of human nature. To find out why financial losses mattered more to people than financial gains, Baumeister looked for situations in which good events made a bigger impact than bad ones. But his team couldn’t find any. Their research showed that bad is relentlessly stronger than good, and their paper has become one of the most-cited in the scientific literature. Our brain’s negativity bias makes evolutionary sense because it kept our ancestors alert to fatal dangers, but it distorts our perspective in today’s media environment. The steady barrage of bad news and crisismongering makes us feel helpless and leaves us needlessly fearful and angry. We ignore our many blessings, preferring to heed—and vote for—the voices telling us the world is going to hell. But once we recognize our negativity bias, the rational brain can overcome the power of bad when it’s harmful and employ that power when it’s beneficial. In fact, bad breaks and bad feelings create the most powerful incentives to become smarter and stronger. Properly understood, bad can be put to perfectly good use. As noted science journalist John Tierney and Baumeister show in this wide-ranging book, we can adopt proven strategies to avoid the pitfalls that doom relationships, careers, businesses, and nations. Instead of despairing at what’s wrong in your life and in the world, you can see how much is going right—and how to make it still better.
