If you find it hard to stick to your timelines and always find yourself having to work under pressure because of deadlines due to procrastination, you are not alone! It’s just a commonly unavoidable activity which people just allow to take over their lives. Did you know that about 20 percent of the population admits that they procrastinate often? This lack of immediacy has also influenced the fast-paced environment you’re now in.

An expert, story-driven account of how Coinbase won the cryptocurrency game and set itself up to lead the future of banking and blockchain-based trading. This is the story of the people who made Coinbase, per PitchBook, “one of the most valuable startups in the US,” including the stoic, preppy founder and CEO Brian Armstrong and the bitcoin-obsessed former lumberjack Olaf Carlson-Wee, who turned their backs on the first generation of wild-eyed Bitcoin prophets to build something more profound and practical.

Our gut is almost as important to us as our brain, yet we know very little about how it works. Gut: The Inside Story is an entertaining, informative tour of the digestive system from the moment we raise a tasty morsel to our lips until the moment our body surrenders the remnants to the toilet bowl. No topic is too lowly for the author's wonder and admiration, from the careful choreography of breaking wind to the precise internal communication required for a cleansing vomit.

From the New York Times best-selling author of The Life-Changing Magic of Not Giving a F*ck and Get Your Sh*t Together comes more straight talk about how to stand up for who you are and what you really want, need, and deserve - showing when it's okay to be selfish, why it's pointless to be perfect, and how to be "difficult". Being yourself should be easy, yet too many of us struggle to live on other people's terms instead of our own. Rather than feeling large and in charge, we feel little and belittled.

Publisher's Summary
One of the nation's premier talent agents and career advisors shows you how to catapult your career and your life forward with three key communication strategies - Authority, Warmth, and Energy.
A self-empowerment guide to achieving your fullest professional and personal potential, Don’t Take Yes for An Answer explains why positive feedback limits personal and professional growth and then teaches you how to embrace hard truths and critical feedback to escape mediocrity and break away from the pack.
To stand out, to attract the attention of those who can raise your profile, to protect yourself during lean times, or to gain the interest of future employers, you must harness three critical communication traits that human beings respond to most: AWE: A - Authority. W - Warmth. E - Energy. When all else is equal - education, work ethic, intelligence, experience, ambition - the single biggest factor in winning business, promotions, friendships, or followers hinges on our ability to communicate and connect. Mastering AWE gives you an unparalleled advantage over the competition, no matter your field.
Herz, who has represented and coached dozens of sports, media, and entertainment leaders over the course of nearly three decades, delivers a step-by-step program that helps you understand and hone your AWE skills. Packed with inspiring success stories, grounded in the latest social psychology and scientific research, and featuring "insider" anecdotes from some of the most popular entrepreneurs and professionals in broadcasting, sports, and the corporate world - many personally coached by Herz - Don’t Take Yes for An Answer provides invaluable suggestions and practical techniques for “upping” your AWE in every aspect of your life.

MUST READ! - THE SECRETS TO ACHIEVING MORE IN LIFE
Expert talent agent and communications master Steve Herz has represented many of the most well known television and radio broadcasters across North America, and knows what it takes for you to achieve your best in life.
Each one of us has a perception of how others view us, but those closest to us don't always want to tell us the truth out of fear of hurting us and/or damaging our relationships with them, which ultimately costs us more in the long run.
Steve skillfully walks you through real life examples of how he has helped many of his celebrity clients and friends improve their lives dramatically by teaching you the same incredibly valuable, and easy to learn, communication skills which aren't taught in school.
DON'T TAKE YES FOR AN ANSWER uniquely exposes the fact that we don't know what we don't know, and from a point of authority, warmth, and energy delivers the blueprint to achieving more in life directly to you! This book is a MUST READ
