Daddy, Stop Talking! CD: And Other Things My Kids Want But Won’t Be Getting

The comedian, actor, television host, podcast king, and New York Times bestselling author of President Me, Not Taco Bell Material, and In Fifty Years We’ll All Be Chicks now lays down the law on the plight of the modern parent.

Parents, do you often think that if your kids had to grow up the way you did—without iPads, 70-inch flatscreen TVs, American Girl dolls, and wifi in the climate controlled minivan—that they might actually be better off? Do you feel underappreciated or ignored? Do you worry you’re raising a bunch of spoiled softies who will never know how to do anything themselves—because you do everything for them? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you need Daddy, Stop Talking.

Adam rips parenthood a new one, telling it straight about what adults must do if they don’t want to have to support their kids forever. Using his own crappy childhood as a cautionary tale, and touting the pitfalls of the kind of helicopter parenting so pervasive today, Daddy, Stop Talking is the only parenting book you should ever read. Here, too, is sage advice to Adam’s own kids—and to future parents—on what matters most: dating; drinking and drugs; buying your first house and car; puberty; and what kind of assholes his kids (and yours) should avoid becoming. Even if his own son and daughter pretty much ignore everything he says, you shouldn’t. And you’re welcome. Again.

The Motivation Manifesto for the Life-Claiming People: Achieve the things you want right now

Do you suffer from procrastination? Do you put off the things you should be doing to do things you shouldn’t be doing? Are you constantly rushing to meet deadlines, even though you had plenty of time to complete your project? Do you know you could do better, if only you had the motivation?

The secret is here in Melanie Hutchinson’s The Motivation Manifesto. Everyone can benefit from this work, because Hutchinson identifies what procrastination is, why people do it, and how to change this destructive habit. The Motivation Manifesto identifies the two types of goals we all at some point have as the “doing” goals (we we want to do) and the “being” goals (what we would like to be). Procrastination erodes both types of goals, but there’s hope in the pages of this book. Hutchinson kicks this off with how we should identify our personal goals of every type. She advises setting large, major goals and then breaking them into smaller and smaller goals that correspond to smaller and smaller increments of time. The Motivation Manifesto includes an important concept: the concept of positive visualization. It encourages us to envision, in detail, what life is like for us with our goals met. For example, if my goal is to run a 5K, I would envision myself crossing the finish line, proud and happy with my accomplishment. Hutchinson also suggests in interesting technique called “goal pictures” to help our visualization efforts. Hutchinson then delves into achieving our smaller goals with strategization. If previous methods haven’t been successful in our particular business, then we should brainstorm new methods to achieve our objective. Another key to addressing procrastination and gaining momentum is to prepare for obstacles and have a plan for addressing them if they arise. For example, if I’m writing an article for a newsletter, I should save it to a cloud-based service in case of power outage that affects my laptop. The Motivation Manifesto also reminds us of the well-known 80/20 principle: that there are methods that are much more efficient than many others. This helps out procrastination by helping us to isolate the most effective way to get things done. Hutchinson also endorses drawing on resources already at hand, you environment and overwhelming important projects with all available sources of energy in order to work most efficiently. The Motivation Manifesto doesn’t shy away from the concept of time management. Hutchinson advocates a calendar-based system for completing projects that she details explicitly in this book. She also lists many tips for increasing personal discipline during work sessions so you get the most results out of each work day. Along with positive visualization, Hutchinson also suggests positive affirmations to stay mentally fresh and focused. She quickly but thoroughly explains how to practice affirmations and weave them into our lives as a part of healthy daily practice. Finally, Hutchinson uses the method of rewarding ourselves when we have met daily, weekly, monthly and yearly goals. She outlines what make good rewards and how to incorporate rewards into our system of work to keep us engaged with our most important projects. ***Limited Edition***

The Top Ten Things Dead People Want to Tell You

From the afterlife – a new perspective on your life: “I know this may come as a shock, and you know I’m not fond of using stale one-liners, but – ‘reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated.’ I’m as alive now as I was on the day we met, except, maybe, more so.” If the dead could speak, don’t you wonder what they would say to those of us they’ve left behind? What would they tell us to soothe our sorrow, calm our fears of what happens when we die, and fire us up to live the best possible lives now? With wisdom, humor, and, yes, joy, New York Times best-selling author Mike Dooley explores our most pressing and profound questions about the afterlife – and this life – from the fresh perspective of those who have made the transition to the next phase. Revelations they share:

We were ready; you are not. There’s no such thing as a devil or hell. We’re sorry for any pain we may have caused. Your pets are just as crazy, brilliant, and loving here as they were there. Nothing can prepare you for the beauty of the moment you arrive.

In this audio program, you’ll learn that our loved ones are not lost to us; that our time on earth is both a school and an adventure; and that we can reshape our own fortunes, starting today.
