  • Effective Communication: 5 Essential Tips and Exercises to Improve How You Communicate in This Divided World, Even If It Is About Politics, Race or Gender!

    Max J. Harrison

    Paperback (Independently published, June 5, 2019)
    How to improve all aspects of life with the #1 life skill everyone needs to know… Have you ever felt mad because you can´t get your message across? Have you ever experienced that no one is actively listening to the things you have to say? You stopped taking the effort to voice your opinion because you already know others won´t get you. With every conversation, you become more and more unsatisfied. The mean voices in your head drive you crazy and you can´t help it, but whenever you are stuck in a meeting or a draining discussion you are close to exploding. Either you manage to suppress your anger or you can´t hold back any longer and you blow up. No matter if you choose A or B, eventually both reactions lead to an immense increase of your stress levels. Stress can cause major mental and physical diseases such as depression, anxiety, cardiovascular disease, obesity, and even sexual dysfunction. Miscommunication is the #1 stress cause. Communication requires a high level of sensitivity because every message is conveyed and needs to be decoded. Did you know that… ...communication is only 7% verbal ....and 93% nonverbal? The non-verbal component is a combination of body language (55%) and tone of voice (38%). Just think about a casual dinner. You are sitting at a table with friends and someone asks “Does anyone see the salt?” Obviously, the question implies “If you see the salt and you can reach it, please hand it over to me.” Unfortunately, decoding is not always that simple. Everyone conveys their message in a different way. If we can´t decode what someone else tries to tell us, it´s an easy defense mechanism to blame “the other guy” for miscommunicating. Just think about all the times that you cast a spell on your partner, coworker, family member or friend. Miscommunication does not only cause stress but also kills your romantic- social- and work-related relationships. No one likes to be directly involved in miscommunication. Yet, all of us are...and that´s normal because we all see the world through different lenses. If you want to stop being passive aggressive because you don´t know how to convey and decode messages the right way, then it is time to discover the 5 most essential secrets to communicate effectively. In “Effective Communication”, you´ll discover: The 5 most important skills to communicate as intended Practical exercises to use in all areas of life How to turn every conversation into a win-win for both parties How to make sure no one will ever take advantage of you How to know what´s reality vs. the evil voices in your head How to maintain and create healthy, long-lasting relationships How to create the common ground for real in depth conversations How to increase your likability and success at work through communication How to overcome all communication barriers and break through anyone And much more. Regardless of how successful and smart you are, most of your insecurities are somehow connected to how you communicate in front of others. Insecurity leads into a “less is more” strategy. Instead of sharing what you really think and feel, you chicken out and don´t step up to the plate when the opportunity is on the table. Once you discover the principles of effective communication, you will know exactly how to get your point across in communication and you never have to be scared of miscommunication again. Stop messing with your social and professional life and improve the #1 life skill everyone needs to have.

  • Oasis

    Jim Harrison

    Paperback (Independently published, March 20, 2018)
    Twelve-year-old Josh and his father arrive in the very small, run-down town of Oasis, Arizona for the summer — Josh’s father for work and Josh for fun. But Oasis is poorly named. It’s hot, dry, and certainly not much fun. As Josh explores the dusty little town, he uncovers a heartbreaking story that has paralyzed the entire community — the previous summer, in hopes of finding a long lost shipment of gold, three kids set out across the desert never to return. Amidst this gloomy place Josh discovers a few kindred outcasts who are also willing to resist the dreary routine. When this secluded group stumbles upon a map of their own, they do the unthinkable — they go after the treasure themselves. With an inept search party on their trail, and plagued by storms, crooks, and the land itself, they slowly make their way to the heart of the desert. Will they find the lost gold, meet the same fate as the missing kids, or discover something completely unexpected?

    Why is What's My Line? TV star and Pulitzer Prize-nominated investigative reporter Dorothy Kilgallen one of the most feared journalists in history? Why has her threatened exposure of the truth about the JFK assassination triggered a cover-up by at least four government agencies and resulted in abuse of power at the highest levels?Denial of Justice - in the spirit of best-selling author Mark Shaw's gripping true crime murder mystery, The Reporter Who Knew Too Much - tells the inside story of why Kilgallen was such a threat leading up to her unsolved murder in 1965. Shaw includes facts that have never before been published, including eyewitness accounts of the underbelly of Kilgallen's private life, revealing statements by family members convinced she was murdered, and shocking new information about Jack Ruby's part in the JFK assassination that only Kilgallen knew about, causing her to be marked for danger. Peppered with additional evidence signaling the potential motives of Kilgallen's arch enemies J. Edgar Hoover, mobster Carlos Marcello, Frank Sinatra, her husband Richard, and her last lover, Denial of Justice adds the final chapter to the story behind why the famous journalist was killed, with no investigation to follow despite a staged death scene.
