Dyer, Wayne W. Change Your Thoughts - Change Your Life: Perpetual Flip Calendar
Carlsbad, California, U.S.A. Hay House Inc 2008 1401921507 / 9781401921507 Hard Cover Fine 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall
Fine hardcover book/calendar with coil binding, no dust jacket ( as issued); calander/book is enclosed in an illustrated box case; never having been used and as new, the book/calendar is clean, tight, square and free of any markings showing very light shelf wear; box case also shows very light shelf wear but remains in fine condition; illustrated. This item is a "perpetual calendar" in that it can be used year after year and is not tied to any one specific year. The book consists of pages, one each for each day of the year, which are enclosed by a hard, illustrated cover and are bound to a coil. The coil enables the pages to be easily flipped over each day, and the illustrated cover both protects the book and also serves as a stand so that, if desired, the calendar can be stood up much like a framed photograph. Each day offers the reader a new meditative verse based on the wisdom of the Tao Te Ching and Dyer's own philosophy. "This perpetual calendar offers you an opportunity to internalize and directly experience the great wisdom of the Tao Te Ching, a collection of 81 verses authored by Chinese prophet Lao-tzu 25 centuries ago. I’ve broken down the verses into bite-size pieces so that you can slowly absorb these powerful thoughts and imprint them into your consciousness. Working with one concept each day of the year, you will come to know the truth behind the ancient Tao observation: When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change."

Without an MBA in marketing, how can today’s entrepreneurs and business owners stay on top of what’s happening in marketing? How can they find the best new ideas and avoid those tactics that don’t work or just lead to trouble? Trump University Marketing 101 presents all the basics of a marketing MBA. Each chapter focuses on one key marketing idea and explores it in a straightforward, non-academic manner with exercises and examples that show the idea in action. But more than basic instruction, Sexton also includes his own methodologies for making vital marketing decisions- the same methodologies major corporations pay top-dollar to have him teach their employees."
