Über dieses E-Book
How can we unify thought and action in our daily activities? Why can't we have conversations that cut through the veils surrounding each of us? Centerlined encourages the reader to not only answer these questions, but also to develop a new approach to thinking. Centerlining, a method of reflecting and acting on your core values, is designed to enhance your life and promotes a holistic look at life around you. It identifies the costs-physically, mentally and spiritually-of not challenging yourself and others to live to their true potential as well. You'll learn that because everyone has their own centerline and their own perspective, everything is not "personal." It's a matter of how others perceive their own centerline and realities. Centerlining is about finding our commonalities with others, but embracing where we came from and the influences, social and otherwise, that affected us. You will understand your fundamental similarities with others. You will embrace change and continual revelations. By defining your centerline, you will ground yourself in love and find meaningful ways to act. Henry J. Sienkiewicz brings a wealth of experience to the fields of practical philosophy and critical thinking. Using his experiences in the fields of technology, languages and political theory, and his successful military, corporate and entrepreneurial knowledge, Sienkiewicz makes an impassioned call to centerline ourselves and others. His examples of real life experiences and theory combine to make a powerful statement about personal and professional relationships. He holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Notre Dame and a Masters of Science degree from the Johns Hopkins University.
Autoren-Profil
Far more celebrated than any of his positivist contemporaries, Henryk Sienkiewicz began as a journalist and achieved considerable renown with his account of a two-year journey to the United States. Between 1882 and 1888 he wrote three historical novels dealing with political and military events in seventeenth-century Poland: With Fire and Sword, The Deluge (1886), and Fire in the Steppe (1888, also translated as Pan Michael). Although superficial in its analysis of historical events, the trilogy gained enormous popularity both in Poland and in other Slavic countries thanks to Sienkiewicz's masterful use of epic techniques and of the seventeenth-century colloquial idiom. Even more popular, if artistically far weaker, was his Quo Vadis? (1896), a novel about Rome in the age of Nero (Sienkiewicz's fame in the West is chiefly based on this work). Another historical novel, The Teutonic Knights (1900), deals with the fifteenth-century struggle between Poland-Lithuania and the Teutonic Order. Henryk Sienkiewicz was awarded The Nobel prize in Literature for 1905 "because of his outstanding merits as an epic writer".
