Sellology: Simplifying the Science of Selling

Everything done well in life has a system, and throughout my long sales career, I’ve seen many so-called sales systems but never an end-to-end system, a complete system and a system which is straightforward and easy to put into practice. Sellology is a sales system, which will improve your all-round sales performance. Whether you’re selling the idea of homework to your five-year-old child or the nuclear waste disposal programme for Shell UK, the principles are the same throughout. They have been gathered together in one place for you to put straight into practice and improve your sales.

Take Control of Your Smoking Habit

The best smoking cessation aid available...is smoking itself!

Indeed the most effective way to combat nicotine deprivation is the drug’s most effective applicator – smoking! My method will teach you how to combine smoking with the conventional stop smoking aids, to smoke your way to becoming a non-smoker. Ludicrous as this claim may be, the merit of my method cannot be ignored.

Indeed there may have been heavier smokers than my average 20 per day intake, although you would struggle to find a smoker that has had so many failed attempts to stop smoking. To say that I am vastly experienced in being, well, a failure, is no understatement nor insult. My failures have assisted me in the creation of the ultimate stop smoking method, culminating in my eventual and untimely success.

All this through a combination of my meticulously conceived method, achieved through decades of trial and error, the positive power of suggestion, logic and illogic. The smoke screen nicotine addiction creates is dispelled, with all of the generically programmed excuses that keep us smoking addressed and waved away, removing the haze and allowing us to finally see the real demon in the retail.

With all propaganda and guise removed, we are left with one question: Do you want to be a smoker? With the help of Donald Paton’s Take Control of Your Smoking Habit, we are left with one answer! 

The Creative Talents Notebook

When everything is taken away from us, our story is all we have left. How valuable have you made your story? How creative have you been with life, with living, with you, and towards others? Are your memories priceless or pointless?

These are intimate core questions we eventually find asking ourselves sooner or later, and in some cases, when it’s already too late to make a difference.

The Creative Talents Notebook is a wonder tool designed with a variety of engaging and compelling creative and motivational quotes designed to help individuals store their impressions, their experiences, their thoughts, their ideas and observations. This inspirational notebook engages innovators, artists, musicians, actors, scientists, business leaders, entrepreneurs and the likes and help them stay productive and in so doing unleash their creative side.

As an author, I learnt firsthand that happiness is what we find when we spend time discovering ourselves, when we engage in expressive writing, when we delegate the burden of thinking to writing onto a blank page. The truth is, a blank page is a good listener. A blank page helps us discover all the great things that we haven’t thought of in a while, all the great things we haven’t been able to think of about ourselves. So, The Creative Talent Notebook is also empowered through its inspirational and diverse nature to also touch on mental health, self recreation and healthy journaling.

The Discovery of Spiritual Chivalry

Futuwwa has been an Islamic term for ‘spiritual chivalry’ for centuries. In Christianity, chivalry has been seen more in ‘behavioral codes’ which many believe are declining. Yet Christ dying for humankind’s sins on the cross – at the heart of Christianity – is the ultimate act of spiritual chivalry.

Dr. Greene unveils the arduous journey to noble spiritedness for persons of all faiths, ages, genders, ethnicities, and social backgrounds. Blending theological and social scientific perspectives, he has assembled a ‘field guide’ for such journeys. Dr Greene addresses spirit, soul and ego differences, healing and transcendence of traumas, transformations of shadows, true selves vs false selves, and pitfalls common to modern societies. Trails blazed by this book can be of immense assistance to those wishing to heal, recover, change, or grow towards noble spiritedness.

The Way We Are

The Way We Are is an account of a life passed in England, Saudi Arabia, and 50+ years in post-war Japan.

How a search for peace of mind became an attempt at self-realization – “satori” or enlightenment, and an acceptance of why we cannot be other than we are – involving (for no clear reason) an induction into a local secret society, learning to deal with voices in the head and telepathy, hypnotism and “Ki” (being manipulated by another person’s will), prescience, visual and other apparitions, 'ghosts', 'poltergeists' etc. All personally experienced without the influence of any stimulants.

This book deals with questioning the limitations of ‘self’ as sufficient identity in this truly modern world, a world where every single one of us is now almost certainly, at some stage, going to be obliged to recognize themselves as that very much rejected and unwanted ‘other’. It also explores moving the mind away from conflict as a solution and examining the fine line between political, commercial, philosophical/religious guidance and control.

Where the Soul Flies

In his book, Where the Soul Flies, Malcolm Southwood describes what to expect when we leave this world to move into the next one. He uses his own experience of out-of-body states to explain a process we will all come to know at some future date. In a matter-of-fact way, he guides the reader through the various situations the traveller will most probably be guided. He goes on to explain the purpose of rebirth, family associations, the number of earthly visits we are likely to endure and the process of re-entry back into the lessons of earthly life.

Where the Soul Flies is an essential read for everyone interested in the experience which follows life and who wants to understand something of the process of eternal awareness.

Beauty Redefined

In our beauty-obsessed culture, women have become accustomed to using the standards set by society and the media as a barometer to measure their own worth. They perpetually wonder where they stand on the attractiveness continuum and question everything about their outward appearances, from their skin colour to their waistline, to their fashion sense. They keep asking themselves, “Am I good enough? Do I matter? Will others love and accept me for who I am?” Beauty Redefined explores this critical issue by looking at beauty from a cultural, biological and historical perspective and provides solutions on what we can do on a collective and individual level to redefine what it means to be a beautiful woman. By reading this book, you’ll be convinced that your voice matters and you’ll feel empowered to make your own unique mark in the world, no matter what your size, shape, colour or ethnic background is. You’ll learn how to love yourself (warts and all!) and embrace every unique aspect of your being and use it to make the world a better place.

Yoga De-Mystified

"Shiv Sharma is an inspiring yoga teacher who is also a scientist. His upbringing in India gave him a sound understanding of the development of Indian philosophy whilst his subsequent scientific training instilled an essential desire to explain the world and seek justification for whatever is asserted. As a yoga teacher, he applies these principles by separating what is non-testable, or downright wrong, from what is measurable, understandable and repeatable; his mantra in class is to question, understand and apply well-directed effort." - Dave Plummer, ex-Head of Medical Imaging, University College London Hospital and Lesley Whitby

Mosquitoes in Skyros

A spiritual retreat – or so this man thought – was something you go on to embrace your connection with life and (hopefully) learn a bit more about yourself. If things go well, you might end up looking to the future with added confidence. However, when the realisation dawns that you have been semi-consciously searching for “the one” for the last eleven years, and that the very essence and substance of true love risks materialising during the retreat… I mean, what is a man to do?

A light-hearted search for greater well-being on a Greek island combines with “a nice holiday” to engender somewhat more sharing than anticipated. The parallel narratives of the retreat workshops and a budding relationship begin to over-flow – one nourishing the other, to the point that a rare and very real love seems almost fated.

Written with great honesty and sensitivity and (yet!) through a male perspective, poignant memories from childhood are pieced together with reflections on relationships in general to bring such focus on the natural laws affecting us all, that a sense of underlying good purpose in every relationship starts to emerge.

With evocative descriptions of Greek cuisine and culture as the backcloth, threads of spiritual mystique interweave with a most-passionate romance. The words of wisdom that emerge organically as the story unfolds may be left to wash over, or be investigated using the cross-references to appendices that support self-development alongside the story; but in any event, there is always the sun and the feta!

Repeat After Me, AUTISTIC

A light-hearted view of how autism impacts on an average household. Where the autistic child is totally oblivious to how their behaviour and actions appear to the outside world, and where the Carer, initially struggling with the challenges, and at times fumbling their way through, eventually comes to the realisation that by allowing the child to be their authentic self, everything else falls into place.

Linda’s first exposure to autism came from working with a specialist charity. Up to then she had no appreciation of the many shapes of autism, and from the experiences of this unique working environment, was able to identify the traits in her own grandchildren. One of whom the book is based on.

There is no right or wrong way of dealing with an autistic child and this book in no way suggests best practice or solutions to autistic behaviour. It is more about how we change our perceptions, and accept the uniqueness of our child.
