Golf My Own Damn Way is a different golf instructional book, as only John Daly can write. Funny, irreverent, and crude, this book is perfect for the golfer looking to improve his or her game, or for nongolfers looking for a laugh. With short, quirky chapters that cover everything from improving your swing to John's favorite courses, this book is more than just a golfing manual. You'll also get John's thoughts on the current state of the game and his opinions on other players on the PGA tour.

When a group of people gather together to generate ideas for solving a problem or achieving a goal, sometimes the best ideas are passed over. Worse, a problematic suggestion with far less likelihood of success may be selected instead. Why would a group dismiss an option that would be more effective? Leadership and communications expert John Daly has a straightforward answer: It wasn't sold to them as well. If the best idea is yours, how can you increase the chances that it gains the support of the group? In Advocacy: Championing Ideas and Influencing Others, Daly explains in full detail how to transform ideas into practice.

The War after the War is a lively military history and overview of Reconstruction that illuminates the new war fought immediately after the American Civil War. This Southern Civil War was distinct from the American Civil War and fought between southerners for control of state governments. In the South, African American and white unionists formed a successful biracial coalition that elected state and local officials. White supremacist insurrectionaries battled with these coalitions and won the Southern Civil War, successfully overthrowing democratically elected governments.

Again, it happened again. A message that not only I needed to see, but that I have been reminded about it from different places. This time it came from Power of Positivity (@LIVEpositivity) where this message was shared: “You will never hear another person's voice more than you hear your own. Be intentional about the way that you talk to yourself.” It’s an old saying that I have heard for a long time, but since I needed it as recently as this morning, I needed to share it with you. It’s connected with - “talk to yourself rather than listen to yourself.” Most of the time when I...

This one stood out to me because I know I have fears and I know they are getting in the way of me living my life to the fullest. It comes from Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi) and it’s a short but powerful reminder: “The fears we don’t face become our limits.” - Robin Sharma. I have had things getting in my way for 20 + years and to top that off, not only do I know about them - a few of my best friends know it too. You see, they have been around me that long, always encouraging me that I can do these things, but the final decision needs to come from me. Another key element. Since ...

I found a couple of posts that really focused on some points that I think we need to have more examples of in our world. The first one was from Motivational Quotes (@motivational) where we are reminded about some things that really “Speaks loudest” when it comes to helping to make a difference with others. This post goes on to share these things that do have a “loud voice”: “It’s not your wallet, your title or your status. It’s how you treat others that speak the loudest.” The second connection came from Coach AJ Mental Fitness (@coachajkings) where he shares this classic...

Love getting reminded about things that I can keep working on. Things that I know I need to keep working on. Thanks Coach Ray Ostrowski (@CoachRayO3313) “The true test… even when things aren’t going your way, find a way to make it happen anyway.” These were his thoughts and there is much more to this as you will hear in this episode. These are things that we all can work on. Not much more important things in life than our character. Something to guard for sure, all throughout life! Thanks for listening. Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave ...

Found a post about some really good advice that I have heard shared from others too. This one came from The Mindfulness Meditation Institute (@TrainingMindful) where they shared: “The best weight you will ever lose is the weight of other people’s opinions of you.” I have always remembered the line that reminds us that opinions are like people’s backsides, everyone has one. The world seems to be never short of others' opinions and it can be tough to not only filter through them, but to also not let them get to us. Having confidence in ourselves in things we want to do helps to focus ...

Months after a life-altering revelation drove Sean Coleman from his mountain hometown of Winston, Colorado, the longtime security guard has found stable work as the sole caretaker of a retired nuclear missile site along the Eastern Plains. The desolate Cold War-era facility now serves as a rarely visited museum and records archive and provides, perhaps, the perfect job for a lonesome, headstrong man working to erase the painful memories of his past.

We live in an anxious age. Long-held certainties, cherished beliefs, and social trust are crumbling. Don’t expect things to get better. For too long we have taken our Christian heritage—the heritage upon which America was built—for granted. But we’re rapidly, and now inevitably, losing the Christian culture that shaped the American republic. What will take its place is a despotism—and a new paganism, worse than the old, because it will be based on a hatred of Christianity.
