DOWNLOAD EBOOKSurprise: Embrace the Unpredictable and Engineer the Unexpected is a fascinating look at how we can handle and harness surprise in our work, relationships, and everyday lives. Pop Quiz! Do you prefer when: A) Things go according to plan? B) When the unexpected happens? Most of us pick control and predictability. Yet research reveals a counterintuitive truth: surprise is the key that unlocks growth, innovation, and connection. It is also the secret ingredient in our best memories. Through colorful narratives and compelling scientific findings, authors Tania Luna and Dr. LeeAnn Renninger shine a light on the world's least understood and most intriguing emotion. They reveal how shifting our perception of surprise lets us thrive in the face of uncertainty. And they show us how surprise acts as a shortcut that turns a typical product into a meaningful experience, a good idea into a viral one, awkward small talk into engaging conversation, and daily life into an adventure.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTony Austin is the most talked about attorney of the 21st century. He is widely considered the most compelling attorney of all time. Early in his career, he was nicknamed the Dapper Don of attorneys attracting the attention of news media. As much as they wanted to focus on his stylish wardrobe, his craftiness and work ethic overshadowed his attire. Like a magician, he’s made some of the world’s most wicked criminals appear innocent. By hook or crook, he stops at nothing to defend his client, even if it means crossing that fine line between ethical and unethical. With all the antics the Government and the Judicial system have used against him, there’s no game he hasn’t seen. He’s gone against the system blow for blow singlehandedly. When it comes to victory, no pebble is too tiny for him to kick over, and no mountain is too big for him to climb. With all the challenging battles he’s fought to save his clients’ freedom, he now faces the most brutal one of them all, and that’s retaining his own freedom. Tony Austin has declared war against the United States of America, which may be the biggest mistake he’s made in his life. It’s a Block Party 20-year reunion as Tony is reacquainted with former clients. As retaliation for Tony’s war, the Feds are attempting to tie Tony into the criminal enterprises of those clients. His decision is destroying his life and the lives of innocent people close to him. Will Attorney Tony Austin be able to work his magic and pull himself and the many people affected out of this disaster, or will his 20-year winning streak end with him behind bars like a criminal?
