It was 1933 when Yissakhar Ben-Yaacov left Hamburg, the city of his birth. His traditional Jewish family made its way to the Land of Israel, fleeing the impending disaster. In the next few years, the young pupil succeeded in making his way within his new society. After joining Ha-No ar Ha-Oved youth movement and the Haganah, Ben-Yaacov entered Israel s nascent Foreign Ministry in 1948. His service took him around the world to Munich, Cologne, Philadelphia, Lagos, Vienna, and Canberra. In A Lasting Reward, the author describes his life in detail, covering myriad exciting events both well-known and not so well-known events that span many decades and continents. He offers insightful descriptions of the inner workings of the Foreign Ministry and the calling of an Israeli diplomat. Yissakhar Ben-Yaacov s memoirs are an outstanding example of an Israeli autobiography that bears witness to the events that have shaped the history of the Jewish people in the last century.

Taylor built their decades-long careers by partnering with key thinkers to combat inequity, environmental degradation, and globalization. Their innovative SEED-SCALE model enables people to transform their communities by analyzing their local context in relation to the global, taking appropriate actions based on their priorities and resources, and assessing what next steps may be needed for continuing progress. Just and Lasting Change describes, step by step, how the SEED-SCALE model can be effectively implemented. Drawing from a variety of personal experiences and case studies, the authors describe historical attempts to promote social development, as well as current efforts in South America, Africa, and Asia.

An ant dies, leaving nothing to be remembered for, despite all its struggles to store up food for the future. It is a tragedy for humans to live like an elephant but die like an ant. Living without conscious thoughts to create a lasting reality leads humans to face the same fate as the ant. All the struggles and labours of a person will someday be forgotten, no matter how wealthy and successful they may be. The wealth will eventually fall into the hands of those who are not as wise as the ant, and all accumulated wealth will be exhausted. A person will be forgotten if there is no record of their thoughts for future generations. Maximizing the wealth of thoughts is a great privilege, allowing one to live like Methuselah, the recorded oldest man on Earth. Unfortunately, neglecting the wealth of thoughts makes one live as a ‘walking corpse.’ A person without conscious thoughts is like a ‘walking corpse.’ The difference between managers and their subordinates, as well as the rich and the poor, lies in their thoughts. The rich think differently and achieve success. However, wealth and success without a record of thoughts will one day be forgotten. What does it profit a person to gain all the wealth and success in the world, only to be forgotten? Live by recording your thoughts.
The articles in this volume shed light on some of the major tensions in the field of children?s rights (such as the ways in which children?s best interests and respect for their autonomy can be reconciled), challenges (such as how the CRC can be made a reality in the lives of children in the face of ignorance, apathy or outright opposition) and critiques (whether children?s rights are a Western imposition or a successful global consensus). Along the way, the writing covers a myriad of issues, encompassing the opposition to the CRC in the US; gay parenting: Dr Seuss?s take on children?s autonomy; the voice of neonates on their health care; the role of NGO in supporting child labourers in India, and young people in detention and more.
Motivation expert James Fell teaches readers how to skip the hard part and go directly from intention to committed action. After years of helping people change, James Fell had a sudden insight about sudden insight: significant life change doesn’t often come from just putting one foot in front of the other, carefully observing and altering habits, slogging through baby steps toward new behavior. Rather, the research reveals that serious life turnaround usually happens in a moment, with a flash of inspiration. Epiphany arrives like a lightning strike, rapidly shifting the recipient of such enlightenment onto a new path that creates a better life. Motivational psychology has traditionally focused on slow and steady—gradual improvement over time to reach a desired goal, whether it’s weight loss, career change, battling addiction, or success in relationships. We’ve been told since toddlerhood that the tortoise beats the hare. But, through compelling science and powerful stories, James Fell shows us that the hare has the edge; overwhelming desire can be awakened fast and furiously. When you learn to become attuned to that sensation of sudden awakening, a new path can be followed almost effortlessly, because it feels like destiny. Everyone has the ability to experience the lightning strike. The Holy Sh!t Moment will teach you how to create a life-changing epiphany and go directly from intention to action.
