Eleven Self-Empowerment Protocols: New Paradigms for Our New Civilization

Eleven Self Empowerment Protocols is a teaching about becoming whole, complete within oneself. In our world this is all but unimagined. As our civilization advances there are more and more of us that are self-sustaining. Think of people as self-fulfilling, self-generating and self-satisfied, this consciousness and at the same time integrated into family and society, it’s the way of the future. The way it is other people have too much weight in our decision making process. Other people’s opinions, unsolicited and hurled at us, are really just their opinions of them selves and rarely have anything to do with us. Coming to terms with this new form of awareness is the next step in the conscious growth of humanity. This work reminds you to recognize that you are feeling bad. Then how to plug in a Protocol . . . Voila, just resume carefree play! The book is designed to put your life back in your own hands. The age of co-dependence is coming to a close. Classes, teachers books, yes, now add something else to it, yourself. It’s time to put it up on line internally. Welcome yourself to the world of self-sovereignty, a life where you decide and therefore create your reality. “It’s no longer about some guru. It’s time to see that it is about you”.

Eleven Rings: The Soul of Success

During his storied career as head coach of the Chicago Bulls and Los Angeles Lakers, Phil Jackson won more championships than any coach in the history of professional sports. Even more important, he succeeded in never wavering from coaching his way, from a place of deep values. Jackson was tagged as the “Zen master” half in jest by sportswriters, but the nickname speaks to an important truth: this is a coach who inspired, not goaded; who led by awakening and challenging the better angels of his players’ nature, not their egos, fear, or greed.

This is the story of a preacher’s kid from North Dakota who grew up to be one of the most innovative leaders of our time. In his quest to reinvent himself, Jackson explored everything from humanistic psychology and Native American philosophy to Zen meditation. In the process, he developed a new approach to leadership based on freedom, authenticity, and selfless teamwork that turned the hypercompetitive world of professional sports on its head.

In Eleven Rings, Jackson candidly describes how he: Learned the secrets of mindfulness and team chemistry while playing for the champion New York Knicks in the 1970s Managed Michael Jordan, the greatest player in the world, and got him to embrace selflessness, even if it meant losing a scoring title Forged successful teams out of players of varying abilities by getting them to trust one another and perform in sync Inspired Dennis Rodman and other “uncoachable” personalities to devote themselves to something larger than themselves Transformed Kobe Bryant from a rebellious teenager into a mature leader of a championship team. Eleven times, Jackson led his teams to the ultimate goal: the NBA championship—six times with the Chicago Bulls and five times with the Los Angeles Lakers. We all know the legendary stars on those teams, or think we do. What Eleven Rings shows us, however, is that when it comes to the most important lessons, we don’t know very much at all. This book is full of revelations: about fascinating personalities and their drive to win; about the wellsprings of motivation and competition at the highest levels; and about what it takes to bring out the best in ourselves and others.
