The Leadership Secrets of Squirrels
Summary
Imagine a book of leadership secrets by two recognized leaders: one a successful business executive, the other a legendary general. Now let your mind take a whimsical and innovative left turn, and you have The Leadership Secrets of Squirrels: More Than 60 Acorns of Wisdom to Make You a Better Leader - Today! Simon Silverback, founder and CEO of Consolidated Acorns, Inc., draws on his own experiences and the writings of a revered squirrel general to create a book whimsical in concept but serious in content. Each secret is based on squirrel behavior familiar to everyone worldwide: 14 secrets on crossing a road 20 secrets from the nutground 10 secrets at the birdfeeder Four secrets from a squirrel’s tail 10 secrets in the trees Four secrets about owls Each secret in this unique book begins with a quotation by the general followed by a concise statement of (well-researched) squirrel behavior and how that translates to a leadership secret. Simon Silverback is the pen name of Len Boswell, a publishing executive with more than 30 years experience in the for-profit and not-for-profit worlds, who also served as “translator” for the book. From the foreword by Robert L. Lorber, coauthor of Putting the One-Minute Manager to Work: I’ve been blessed to able to work with business leaders from all over the world. I’ve worked closely with hundreds of CEOs of corporations, senior business leaders at all levels, university leaders, a few country leaders, and community leaders, and most of them will love the fun concepts in this little book. I know you are skeptical; there are thousands of books on leadership, and now one from a squirrel’s perspective? I was skeptical, too, at first. The manuscript was shoved under my door, no more than a loosely bound pile of leaves, with markings as curious and unintelligible as hieroglyphs, looking more like the work of a sudden gust of wind than the work of a leader and fellow mammal. But once translated, the book grew on me, as I hope it does on you. I love creative new ways at looking at how we can help become better leaders in all aspects of our lives.

Stoicism
Summary
No tree becomes rooted and sturdy unless many a wind assails it. For by its very tossing it tightens its grip and plants its roots more securely; the fragile trees are those that have grown in a sunny valley. (Seneca) Landmarks of virtue Mental toughness Emotional intelligence Resilience Happiness Balance These are just a few things that we, as a society, are lacking today on a large scale. Many of us are in search of strength. We read/listen to books about being happy and learning how to stop caring about what other people think. And yet, so much of our self-help isn’t working. Timeless ideas The age-old principles of Stoicism aim to offer true strength in those crucial areas where we may be lacking. They offer pertinent wisdom - here and now, in our modern time. Here are a few Stoic quotes as examples: “Tranquility comes when you stop caring what they say. Or think, or do. Only what you do.” (Marcus Aurelius) “It does not matter what you bear, but how you bear it.” (Seneca) “Learn to be indifferent to what makes no difference.” (Marcus Aurelius) Road maps to meaning Stoicism interests those who fail to find meaning in the futile norms and customs enforced by different faiths. It is meant for deep thinkers who wish to understand life rationally. It allows you to delve into the depths of logic and reasoning and analyze everything in an impartial manner. Blueprints for success Stoicism has been shown to have great results in those who study it and apply it. An overwhelming number of people, young and old, have attested to making better students, better partners, and better workers. The timeless, modern value of Stoic principles is irrefutable. Self development strategies that actually work Stoicism: Principles for Achieving Balance, Contentment, and Resilience in Everyday Life is an audiobook designed to simplify the teachings of Stoicism. It aims to merge the intricate details of philosophy with ordinary day to day tasks.
