Conscious Coaching
Author: Brett Bartholomew
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781543179477
Category : Athletic trainers
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In the world of strength and conditioning, learning how to move others-not just physically, but also psychologically and emotionally-is paramount to getting the most out of them. People are the ultimate performance variable, and understanding how to effectively blend knowledge of proper training with the nuances of human behavior is integral to helping athletes achieve their ultimate goals. Unfortunately, while much attention has been given to the science of physical training, little attention has been given to the science of communication. Conscious Coaching: The Art and Science of Building Buy-In bridges this gap. Readers learn the foundational principles of improving relationships, enhancing engagement, and gaining the trust of athletes through targeted communication. And, every bit as important, readers also learn concrete strategies to apply these principles in day-to-day coaching situations they will inevitably encounter. The result is a game-changing book that sets the stage for coaches to create a culture of success not only within sport, but also beyond. Conscious Coaching is a movement and its time has come.

Lawyer Brett Morgan has big goals, including becoming mayor of Rocky Ridge and eventually, territorial governor. The only problem – the town council wants the mayor to be a married man, and Brett has no intention of marrying a woman he doesn’t love even if she is a ‘suitable’ politician’s wife.

She has no real education and no other way to earn a living, and she can’t imagine any man being attracted to her. When Lucy’s future is threatened by two men who claim her father sold the mine to them before he died, she hires Brett to help her prove the deed they have is a forgery. Even though Brett and Lucy are opposites in almost every way, their attraction to each other is undeniable. Can they prove the mine legally belongs to Lucy? And will Lucy and Brett deny their mutual attraction, or can they find a common ground and follow their dreams together?

Coal Black Mornings
Author: Brett Anderson
Publisher: Abacus
ISBN: 9781408710487
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Evening Standard Book of the Year. Observer Book of the Year. Guardian Book of the Year. Sunday Times Book of the Year. Telegraph Book of the Year. New Statesman Book of the Year. Herald Book of the Year. Mojo Book of the Year. Brett Anderson came from a world impossibly distant from rock star success, and in Coal Black Mornings he traces the journey that took him from a childhood as 'a snotty, sniffy, slightly maudlin sort of boy raised on Salad Cream and milky tea and cheap meat' to becoming founder and lead singer of Suede. Anderson grew up in Hayward's Heath on the grubby fringes of the Home Counties. As a teenager he clashed with his eccentric taxi-driving father (who would parade around their council house dressed as Lawrence of Arabia, air-conducting his favourite composers) and adored his beautiful, artistic mother. He brilliantly evokes the seventies, the suffocating discomfort of a very English kind of poverty and the burning need for escape that it breeds. Anderson charts the shabby romance of creativity as he travelled the tube in search of inspiration, fuelled by Marmite and nicotine, and Suede's rise from rehearsals in bedrooms, squats and pubs. And he catalogues the intense relationships that make and break bands as well as the devastating loss of his mother. Coal Black Mornings is profoundly moving, funny and intense - a book which stands alongside the most emotionally truthful of personal stories.
