DOWNLOAD EBOOKYou think you have a beautiful business that you feel is replicate-able across the state you live in, across the country, or across the world. Is the way you created your business model really scale-able? Can you “replicate yourself” and create a franchise that is teach-able and that offers a clear picture of your concept to the market? Entrepreneurs across the world create amazing new models and platforms every day, but not all of them are scale able as a franchise model. Franchising is one of the fastest and most-viable distribution platforms in the world, and an incredible experience for new franchisors who are able to give of themselves to package, train, and provide ongoing coaching and support for their creation, allowing amazing “operators” in the form of franchisees to benefit from their franchise offering. But is your model really the one they should be investing in? And are you as good at building a franchise team as you are running your beautiful business at the unit-level? Franchise consultant and Franchise Science CEO Harold Miller places your mind into the preparation and execution in a point-to-point franchise development to focus on the people, the methods, and the phases of franchising your business model and the key questions to ask yourself along with way by actually taking you through a full development with your own model in mind. There are a number of great franchise books which talk a lot about past successes of various models and offer a useful history of franchising. Replication: The Art and Science of Franchising Your Business focuses on how to think about the option of franchising today, and how various fundamentals will shift during the current labor and management marketplace. Knowing how to prepare and what questions to ask yourself phase-by-phase can solve a lot of problems and save a lot of wasted capital by making better decisions on both the “if” and the “how” of franchising your business model.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis important new book argues that at the root of the contemporary crisis of climate, energy, food, inequality, and meaning is a certain core presupposition that structures the ways in which we live, think, act and design: the assumption of dualism, or the fundamental separateness of things. The authors contend that the key to constructing livable worlds lies in the cultivation of ways of knowing and acting based on a profound awareness of the fundamental interdependence of everything that exists – what they refer to as relationality. This shift in paradigm is necessary for healing our bodies, ecosystems, cities, and the planet at large. The book follows two interwoven threads of argumentation: on the one hand, it explains and exemplifies the modes of operation and the dire consequences of non-relational living; on the other, it elucidates the nature of relationality and explores how it is embodied in transformative practices in multiple spheres of life. The authors provide an instructive account of the philosophical, scientific, social, and political sources of relational theory and action, with the aim of illuminating the transition from living within seemingly ineluctable 'toxic loops' of unrelational living (based on ontological dualism), to living within 'relational weaves' which we might co-create with multiple human and nonhuman others.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK• Outlines a set of clear principles to help guide dreamworkers, illustrated through real precognitive dream experiences • Shows how to detect precognitive dreams through their characteristic features, explaining how dreams relate to memory and why dreams about future experiences are often symbolic or distorted • Explores the mind-blowing implications of precognition for our lives, including how our present thoughts actually shape--or shaped--our past Once only the stuff of science fiction, evidence has grown that precognition--glimpses of your future in dreams and visions and being influenced subtly in waking life by what is to come--is real. Your future thoughts and feelings shape who you are now. And your present thoughts and feelings shape--or shaped--your past. In this accessible exploration of precognition, precognitive dreamwork, and a radically new biographical sensibility, the Long Self, that precognition awakens us to, Eric Wargo shows how dreamworkers can play the role of citizen scientists, adding to our understanding of this fascinating, almost unexplored dimension of human life. Wargo outlines a set of clear principles to guide dreamworkers, each illustrated through real dreamers’ experiences. Drawing on psychoanalysis and contemporary sleep science, he explores how precognition relates to memory, explaining why dreams of future experiences are often distorted and what those distortions probably mean. He discusses never-before-described dream features, including “time gimmicks” (symbols hinting at time distortion) and “calendrical resonance” (the tendency of dreams to foretell experiences exactly a year or years later). He describes why an understanding of precognition augments Jung’s theory of synchronicity by highlighting our own role in producing meaningful coincidences in our waking lives. He also shows how precognition manifests in other states of consciousness like lucid dreams, out-of-body experiences, trance states, sleep paralysis, meditation, and hypnagogia. We are at a major turning point in science’s understanding of time, causality, and the self. We are more than who we think we are from moment to moment--we are our past, present, and future simultaneously. When we understand this, a dream journal becomes a personal time machine, with mind-blowing discoveries in store for the traveler.
