Story
Few mixtures are as toxic as absolute power and insanity. When nothing stands between a leader's delusion whims and seeing them carried them out, all sorts of bizarre outcomes are possible. Whatever their background, these rulers show that dynastic politics made sure that a rightful heir always got on the throne - despite that heir's mental condition - and that power can destroy a mind worse than any mental illness.

Story
Legendary personal development icon Jim Rohn explains the parallels between life and the changing seasons. To realize that the seasons will change without fail and what we can do to utilize each season to get the greatest rewards. This popular book is based on the parable of the sower and the reaper. What to do in one season to ensure success in another season. It's great for those who are going through difficult times personally or financially, because it helps them see that this "winter" in their life will eventually give way to "spring."

I have always enjoyed Jim Rohn's work. This no exception. What's even better is that I can listen to it repeatedly to get as much content as possible. Even while I work.

Story
As you listen to this program, Les Brown will add strength to your purpose. For once you know that it’s possible, it’s necessary, it’s you and it’s hard; you still may ask yourself this one basis question – Why would anyone ask Shakespeare’s Hamlet says, “suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune?” We after all are not pain seekers. The only reason anyone with a sound mind would choose to endure in the face of great obstacles is this – It’s Worth It!
