Governments, businesses, and individuals around the world are thinking about what happens after the COVID-19 pandemic. Can we hope to not only ward off another COVID-like disaster but also eliminate all respiratory diseases, including the flu? Bill Gates, one of our greatest and most effective thinkers and activists, believes the answer is yes. The author of the #1 New York Times best seller How to Avoid a Climate Disaster lays out clearly and convincingly what the world should have learned from COVID-19 and what all of us can do to ward off another catastrophe like it. Relying on the shared knowledge of the world’s foremost experts and on his own experience of combating fatal diseases through the Gates Foundation, Gates first helps us understand the science of infectious diseases. Then he shows us how the nations of the world, working in conjunction with one another and with the private sector, how we can prevent a new pandemic from killing millions of people and devastating the global economy. Here is a clarion call—strong, comprehensive, and of the gravest importance.

The Law of Attraction Get everything you want out of life through the power of your own mind. Imagine for a moment that you have in your possession a source of total and complete power. Only you can control the heat of the sun, the fall of rain, the change of tides, and the direction of winds. What would you do with this kind of power? Would you abuse it by causing the world to fall into total chaos? Would you be benevolent and merciful, using your power to help the people of your planet reach their full potential? Unfortunately (or fortunately, as the case may be) there is no way for a person to have so much power. Mother Nature controls the planetary systems according to her own rules and designs. You can never have absolute control over the environment in which you live. What if you could, however, have the power to determine the course of your own life? What if you could accomplish great things and acquire great riches only by using the power of your own mind? What if I told you that this doesn't have to be a "what if"? What if I told you that you have in your psyche the power to trace the course of the rest of your life by the path you consider appropriate? You most likely told me that I had obviously been watching too much science fiction and that I needed to leave home more often, not to mention my obvious need to expand my vocabulary, considering the number of times I have used the term "what if" in this conversation. You'd be wrong (about science fiction, anyway). Each person has in his mind the power to shape the events of his life to accomplish whatever end he deems appropriate. This power is what is known as the law of attraction. The belief held by many theorists is that the universe is governed by a set of universal laws; these laws cannot be changed, they cannot be broken, and they apply to every individual, regardless of age or nationality. These laws are the banks of the rivers that guide the flow of their lives on their journey to their ultimate end. The law of attraction is one of them. The law of attraction is the belief that anyone can determine their destiny through the power of their mind. "The Law of Attraction attracts all that you need, according to the nature of your thoughts. Your environment and your financial situation are the perfect reflection of your usual thought.
