The retired four-star general and and best-selling author of My Share of the Task shares a powerful new leadership model. Former General Stanley McChrystal held a key position for much of the War on Terror, as head of the Joint Special Operations Command.

Unsere Welt dreht sich immer schneller. Ständig werden wir abgelenkt, von dem was wirklich wichtig ist. Wir handeln häufig einfach nur fremdgesteuert und vergessen dabei unsere eigenen Bedürfnisse.

Natürlich darf man dabei die eigentlichen Fähigkeiten nicht vernachlässigen, aber Dinge wie Smalltalk, Körpersprache oder rudimentäre Organisationsfertigkeiten sind in der Berufswelt mittlerweile unabdingbar. Aber auch im Privatleben ist es von hoher Relevanz zu wissen, wann ich mit wem wie reden kann oder wann ich was besser selbst in die Hand nehme.

Motivation hat einen großen Einfluss auf unser Leben. Ohne die nötige Motivation sitzen wir nur antriebslos herum, wissen nicht, was wir mit unserer Zeit anfangen sollen und haben keine Grundsätze oder Ziele. Wir verfallen in eine negative Denkweise und üben auch auf andere einen destruktiven Einfluss aus. Dass fehlende Motivation Menschen negativ beeinflusst, ist nachvollziehbar, doch Studien zufolge führt Demotivation im Durchschnitt sogar zu rund 23% Leistungs- und Produktivitätsverlust!

Windsor appeared to open the door to marriage equality. In Texas, Mark Phariss and Vic Holmes, together for 16 years and deeply in love, wondered why no one had stepped across the threshold to challenge their state's 2005 constitutional amendment prohibiting same-sex marriage. They agreed to join a lawsuit being put together by Akin Gump Strauss Hauer and Feld LLD.

One American seldom receives the attention he rightly deserves. Noah Webster, Jr., does not often come immediately to mind when one considers those who helped the United States during its infancy. He should. His services were many and unique in the earliest stages of America. Even as a boy, Noah was fascinated with language and education.

When the fires of the Revolution broke out in the early 1770s, Noah was a student at Yale.
