Minimalism is not about deprivation, it is about finding more value in the stuff you own. I couldn't agree more!

Essential: Essays by The Minimalists (Audiobook)

US literary superstar Jonathan Franzen talks about his hugely acclaimed novel Freedom. An epic of contemporary love and marriage, Freedom charts the exploits of the Berglund family, capturing the temptations and burdens of liberty, the thrills of teenage lust, the frustrations of trying to change the world, and the sobering compromises of middle age. 



In fixing his unflinching gaze on the memorable trio of characters, Patty, Walter, and reprobate rockstar Richard Katz and on how they struggle to live in an ever more confusing world, Franzen has produced an indelible and deeply moving portrait of 21st Century America.

Listen to this dialogue between Ada and Jackie as Jackie helps Ada buy a new phone. See if you can pick out the 4 IELTS vocabulary words as you listen. Dialogue Part 1 Ada: Hi there! I’ve just moved here from the United Kingdom...so obviously my UK phone doesn’t work anymore. I’m looking to get a new SIM card so that I can use my mobile phone here in America...or I might even be open to buying a new device altogether, depending on how much it would cost. Is that something you could help me with? Jackie: Yes, of course! We do offer some plans that are SIM card only, depending on whether the device you’re using is compatible with our company’s SIM cards. Would you prefer a SIM card only plan, or do you think maybe it’s time for a new phone? Ada: Are the SIM card only plans cheaper? Jackie: Well yes. Since you aren’t paying for the price of a brand new mobile phone, the SIM card only plans tend to cost less…though we do have a couple of deals going on right now that would allow you to get a pretty great phone for much cheaper than they would normally cost brand new. Ada: Okay, I’ll think about it. Can you tell me a little about the SIM card only plans that you offer?&nbsp; Jackie: Sure, but before we get started, why don’t you let me have a look at your phone, and I can tell you if it will be compatible with any of our SIM cards. Unfortunately if it’s not compatible you’ll need to get a new device in order to use our cards. Ada: Yeah, no problem, here’s my phone. &nbsp; Jackie: …Oh yeah, this mobile is pretty old. Let me just check in back and see if we have any of the older SIM cards left in stock. Ada: Okay, thanks. &nbsp; Jackie: …I’m sorry. I don’t think we have anything that is compatible with your current phone. On the bright side, maybe it’s time for an upgrade! Would you be interested in seeing some of the newer devices that we have available? Ada: Yeah sure, why not. Jackie: Great, let’s start with this one...So this is the XC-500, and it’s got all your standard smartphone features, plus a high definition screen. And the developers have made some huge innovations with the voice recognition technology – basically you can set it up to respond specifically to your voice. So that’s pretty cool. Ada: Yeah, that’s neat. &nbsp; Jackie: ...And then this...

English conversation - Arranging party at home

I believe this email will be profoundly valuable to your rise to your finest self and for your ascent to your greatest life.

Our culture suggests that if you would only become a more positive thinker, everything would be amazing.

And yet an excellent psychology and a superb belief system with a messy emotionality and toxic feelings being carried from past hurts will never deliver the creativity, productivity, performance and peace that you’re looking for...

...This is a very disruptive idea that runs counter to what most pundits in the field of personal development and leadership are teaching.

...I believe it’s the #1 reason why most learning doesn’t last. We get the insights at an intellectual level only. And we fail to integrate it into our heart.

This calibrated new episode of The Mastery Sessions will really help you understand the power of emotional healing as a profound success tool. And why a world-class Mindset without a purified Heartset will not cause the wins you want.

The Big Lie Of Positive Thinking

Only about 14 percent of Native Americans attend college and many often leave before graduating. TaraJean Yazzie-Mintz has spent much of the past three decades working to improve access to education for Native people. In this episode of the Harvard EdCast, she addresses the barriers to higher education for Native people, and how higher education institutions can do a better job at welcoming and keeping Native people in this space.
