The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Story
Lyndon Baines Johnson was a man of great ambition and enormous greed, both of which, in 1963, would threaten to destroy him. In the end, President Johnson would use power from his personal connections in Texas and from the underworld and from the government to escape an untimely end in politics and to seize even greater power. President Johnson, the thirty-sixth president of the United States, was the driving force behind a conspiracy to murder President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963. In The Man Who Killed Kennedy, you will find out how and why he did it. Political consultant, strategist, and Libertarian Roger Stone has gathered documents and used his firsthand knowledge to construct the ultimate tome to prove that LBJ was not only involved in JFK's assassination, but was in fact the mastermind. With 2013 being the fiftieth anniversary of JFK's assassination, this is the perfect time for The Man Who Killed Kennedy to be available to readers. The research and information in this book is unprecedented, and as Roger Stone lived through it, he's the perfect person to bring it to everyone's attention.

Strategic Problem Solving: A Step-by-Step Guide to Solve Hard Problems
Leverage Data Analysis and Critical Thinking to Make Smart Decisions, Drive Innovation, and Lead with Confidence by Mark Hartley was very thorough and covered every base of many companies' problem-solving dilemmas. Hartley's 7-step process has many factions, which he explains very well. From Critical Thinking to Consulting (the road map to success) to Confidence Building with the proper delivery of voice, posture, and mindset... doing a quality job performance problem-solving consistently can only improve your esteem and a better chance to advance in your company. The bottom line is that following the book's strategies in problem-solving can help both your career and your personal life. Not sure if I am spelling these ideas Hartley shared toward the end of the book he mentions the McKenzie and the Japanese TiDing approach to problem solving. Hartley's motto, "Your success is my motivation," leaves a positive note of the book. Well done.
