Habits to Design Your Life, Think Big and Become Mentally Strong

40% of your actions are unconscious habits. Discover how to control them. How many times do you feel stressed at work and then involuntarily start walking to the coffee machine to calm your mind with a cup of fresh-brewed coffee? How often do you intend to eat healthier, stress less, do more sports or be more productive... But then you can ́t stick to it? You've tried different strategies to turn from couch potato to super athlete or from apple-polisher to independent leader. Everyone keeps telling you all you need to do is replace a bad habit with a good one, but if it would be that easy you would be a superhero by now. Habits are a complex sum of our past often unintentionally learned behaviors. Experts estimate that 40% of our daily actions are unconsciously performed by these habits. Which means you spend 576 minutes or 9,6 hours doing things you are not aware of. How can you change something if you don ́t know how it works and what triggers it? When you have no clue why your car isn't starting, how can you fix it? Before you can start changing, you need to understand the roots of your bad habits. It sounds more complex than it is. Once you know what makes your engine run, you can build life-changing habits in as little as 18 days. Small habits can already have a huge return and benefit your physical, mental and emotional health. This is only a select sample of what you ́ll discover in Start Making Your Bed Healthy habits to maximize your physical wellbeing and boost your energy in as little as 30 seconds Why the habits you currently perform cause cancer and how to break them Understanding the magical loop to break addictions and other bad habits The fatal craving traps you probably fall for too often and how to get out of them The three essential components you need to form a lifelong habit How a new toy in your childhood became a growing void for your adulthood desires Why the candy bar won ́t stop sneaking up on you if you don ́t know an answer to this one question What other ́s describe as the number one most impactful change to achieve happiness (hint: it takes less 60 seconds a day) An unexpected Youtube trend that will make you want to clean your room instantly What may be the barriers you will face, and how to easily combat them And much more. You don ́t need to spend hours in the gym, cleaning up or meditating. You just need to understand the principle of small habits. These habits don ́t require much of your time and can be practiced in the comfort of your own home. One last question to know if you qualify for this book: Would you rather take $1,000,000 in your bank account right now or a penny that doubles in value over the course of the month? If you take the $1,000,000 right now, this book is not for you. Habits are for people that can think longterm, invest and wait for the big return at the end. Because after just one month, the penny will end up being $10.7 million dollars. So start investing in your future and learn how to improve 1% every single day. If you want to control 100% of your actions and create habits that lead to your goals, scroll up and click the "Add to Cart" button right now.

The Decentralized Alternative to Central Banking

A comprehensive and authoritative exploration of Bitcoin and its place in monetary history

When a pseudonymous programmer introduced "a new electronic cash system that's fully peer-to-peer, with no trusted third party" to a small online mailing list in 2008, very few people paid attention. Ten years later, and against all odds, this upstart autonomous decentralized software offers an unstoppable and globally accessible hard money alternative to modern central banks. The Bitcoin Standard analyzes the historical context to the rise of Bitcoin, the economic properties that have allowed it to grow quickly, and its likely economic, political, and social implications.

While Bitcoin is an invention of the digital age, the problem it purports to solve is as old as human society itself: transferring value across time and space. Author Saifedean Ammous takes the reader on an engaging journey through the history of technologies performing the functions of money, from primitive systems of trading limestones and seashells, to metals, coins, the gold standard, and modern government debt. Exploring what gave these technologies their monetary role, and how most lost it, provides the reader with a good idea of what makes for sound money, and sets the stage for an economic discussion of its consequences for individual and societal future-orientation, capital accumulation, trade, peace, culture, and art. Compellingly, Ammous shows that it is no coincidence that the loftiest achievements of humanity have come in societies enjoying the benefits of sound monetary regimes, nor is it coincidental that monetary collapse has usually accompanied civilizational collapse.

With this background in place, the book moves on to explain the operation of Bitcoin in a functional and intuitive way. Bitcoin is a decentralized, distributed piece of software that converts electricity and processing power into indisputably accurate records, thus allowing its users to utilize the Internet to perform the traditional functions of money without having to rely on, or trust, any authorities or infrastructure in the physical world. Bitcoin is thus best understood as the first successfully implemented form of digital cash and digital hard money. With an automated and perfectly predictable monetary policy, and the ability to perform final settlement of large sums across the world in a matter of minutes, Bitcoin's real competitive edge might just be as a store of value and network for the final settlement of large payments―a digital form of gold with a built-in settlement infrastructure.

Ammous' firm grasp of the technological possibilities as well as the historical realities of monetary evolution provides for a fascinating exploration of the ramifications of voluntary free market money. As it challenges the most sacred of government monopolies, Bitcoin shifts the pendulum of sovereignty away from governments in favor of individuals, offering us the tantalizing possibility of a world where money is fully extricated from politics and unrestrained by borders.

The final chapter of the book explores some of the most common questions surrounding Bitcoin: Is Bitcoin mining a waste of energy? Is Bitcoin for criminals? Who controls Bitcoin, and can they change it if they please? How can Bitcoin be killed? And what to make of all the thousands of Bitcoin knockoffs, and the many supposed applications of Bitcoin's 'block chain technology'? The Bitcoin Standard is the essential resource for a clear understanding of the rise of the Internet's decentralized, apolitical, free-market alternative to national central banks.
