New Releases by Andy Andrews

A NOTE TO THE READER: What's killing your beloved community newspaper? The internet and search engines? The coronavirus pandemic? Many newspapers have closed their doors for good. Are newspaper employees, and the newspapers themselves, becoming "nonessential"? What does this mean for the thousands of industry professionals? Or millions of readers? DEEMED NONESSENTIAL is based on my 40 years in publishing. Many loyal newspaper subscribers miss "their paper." What do the closings mean to an industry that is part of our cultural makeup? What will it mean for those who don't trust where they get their news? How did it become this way? What can be done to fix it?

Pasamos mucho tiempo pensando acerca de los grandes retos de la vida cuando realmente son los pequeños detalles los que pueden cambiar absolutamente todo. ¿Alguna vez te has preguntado por qué pasamos tanta energía y tiempo pensando en los grandes desafíos de nuestras vida cuando toda evidencia comprueba que son realmente los pequeños detalles los que pueden cambiar todo? Así es… absolutamente todo. Andy Andrews autor best seller del New York Times es conocido por su forma especial de contar historias sobre principios que empoderan la mente y el espíritu humano. Este libro encarna su propio enfoque a la vida y al trabajo, detallando por primera vez material exclusivo que él utiliza para enseñar y capacitar a algunas de las corporaciones más exitosas, equipos e individuos en todo el mundo. En su estilo único y con buen sentido del humor, Andy muestra cómo las personas pueden triunfar al ir en contra del adagio popular «no te fijes en los detalles». Por contraste Andy prueba que enfocándonos en las cosas más pequeñas es cuando agregamos valor. «En un mundo en el que muchos se sientes impotentes, ¿no sería grandioso sentirse en control? Entonces considera esto. La perspectiva puede ser más importante que las respuestas básicas». «Estoy más apasionado que nunca por notar eso… tan pequeño, que cuando lo entendamos y aseguremos nos permitirá crear una vida con propósito extraordinario y resultados poderosos. No se trata tanto de determinación y de fuerza de voluntad como de comprender ciertos principios y por qué funcionan… cada vez». Andrews provee una perspectiva de sentido común y un plan de juego para alcanzar diversos desafíos, como: • Manejar la vida en una sociedad que parece estar contantemente ofendida por algo o alguien • Crear cambios que son permanentes y a largo plazo • Incrementar drásticamente los resultados al reducir el margen entre el segundo y el primer lugar • Comprender nuestra conexión espiritual con Dios y cómo eso afecta la planificación y los resultados • Identificar el momento preciso en el que preguntar ¿por qué? incrementa el éxito de un plan.

As the story continues to unfold in The Noticer Returns, Jones uses his unique talent of noticing little things that make a big difference. And these “little things” grant people a life-changing gift—perspective. Along the way, families will be united, financial opportunities will be created, and readers will be left with powerfully simple solutions to the everyday problems we all face. What starts as a story of one person's everyday reality unfolds into the extraordinary principles available to anyone looking to create the life for which they were intended.

A veces encuentras las perspectivas, y a veces las perspectivas te encuentran a TI. En la tranquila ciudad costera de Fairhope, Alabama, un misterioso anciano llamado Jones se ha instalado para hacer lo que mejor sabe hacer: “notar” las pequeñas cosas que marcan una gran diferencia en la vida de la gente. Sin embargo, esta vez lo está haciendo frente a una audiencia... una clase para padres, para ser exacto. Pero Jones no está ahí solo para enseñar sobre la paternidad. También está ahí para dar semillitas eternas de perspectiva sobre los negocios, las relaciones y mucho más a los corazones sedientos de la comunidad de Fairhope. Como maestro, mentor, mediador y, sobre todo, como observador, Jones guía a los lugareños en conflictos y frustraciones y responde las preguntas que todos estamos esperando resolver. En este, su libro más reciente, el popular autor Andy Andrews vuelve a demostrar por qué es una de las voces de mayor influencia en los últimos veinte años. Combinando sabiduría eterna, una perspectiva clara y una narrativa cautivadora página tras página, Semillas de sabiduría nos demuestra nuevamente que Andy Andrews nota las cosas que la mayoría de los demás no vemos y que, una vez descubiertas, pueden cambiarnos la vida para siempre.

Perspective is a powerful thing. Andy Andrews has spent the past five years doing a double take at every white-haired old man he sees, hoping to have just one more conversation with the person to whom he owes his life. Through a chance encounter at a local bookstore, Andy is reunited with the man who changed everything for him - Jones, also known as "The Noticer." As the story unfolds, Jones uses his unique talent of noticing little things that make a big difference. And these "little things" grant the people of Fairhope, Alabama, a life-changing gift - perspective. Along the way, families will be united, financial opportunities will be created, and readers will be left with powerfully simple solutions to the everyday problems we all face. Through the lens of a parenting class at the Grand Hotel in Point Clear, Alabama, Jones guides a seemingly random group to ask specific questions inspired by his curious advice that "You can't believe everything you think." Those questions lead to answers for which people have been searching for centuries: How do we begin to change the culture in which we live? What is the key to creating a life of success and value? What if what we think is the end...is only the beginning? What starts as a story of one person's everyday reality unfolds into the extraordinary principles available to anyone looking to create the life for which they were intended.

"Manchmal muss man die Dinge nur ein bisschen anders sehen". Diesen Satz kann Andy nicht vergessen. Dieser Satz von Jones, dem Mann mit dem Koffer, hat sein Leben zum Guten verändert, hat ihm Freude und Perspektiven fürs Leben gegeben. Wie Andy geht es vielen anderen in Orange Beach: einem Paar kurz vor der Trennung, jungen Leuten ohne Hoffnung, einem Unternehmer mit unsauberen Geschäften, zwei alten Menschen ohne Freude.

It all comes down to the truth. Much like the character in one of his best-selling books, Andy Andrews is first and foremost a Noticer. Sometimes, all one needs is a little perspective and Andy has been providing that perspective to some of the world's most influential companies and organizations for the last 20 years. His ability to transform an individual by their own understanding and desire has made him loved by millions. Now, Andy Andrews brings his lessons and perspective into the important arena of government, citizenship, and what it means to completely uphold the truth. If the truth is what sets us free, what does it mean to live in a society where truth is absent? How do truth and lies in the past shape our destiny today? Through the lens of the Holocaust, best-selling author Andy Andrews examines the critical need for truth in our relationships, our communities, and our government. In this compact, nonpartisan book, Andrews urges readers to be "careful students" of the past, seeking accurate, factual accounts of events and decisions that illuminate choices we face now. By considering how the Nazi German regime was able to carry out over eleven million institutional killings between 1933 and 1945, Andrews advocates for an informed population that demands honesty and integrity from its leaders and from each other. The future of our country rests on the ability to separate the truth from lies, and Andrews compels each of us to examine our leaders' claims with a critical eye. His question- how do you kill eleven million people?-is provocative, but his warning is clear: "Only a clear understanding of the answer to this question and the awareness of an involved populace can prevent history from continuing to repeat itself as it already has, time and again."

How do you get away with the murder of 11 million people? The answer is simple—and disturbing. You lie to them. Learn how you can become an informed, passionate citizen who demands honesty and integrity from your leaders. In this nonpartisan New York Times bestselling book, Andy Andrews emphasizes that seeking and discerning the truth is of critical importance, and that believing lies is the most dangerous thing you can do. You’ll be challenged to become a more careful student of the past, seeking accurate, factual accounts of events that illuminate choices our world faces now. By considering how the Nazi German regime was able to carry out over eleven million institutional killings between 1933 and 1945, Andrews advocates for an informed population that demands honesty and integrity from its leaders and from each other. This short, thought-provoking book poses questions like: What happens to a society in which truth is absent? How are we supposed to tell the difference between the “good guys" and the “bad guys”? How does the answer to this question affect our country, families, faith, and values? Does it matter that millions of ordinary citizens aren't participating in the decisions that shape the future of our country? Which is more dangerous: politicians with ill intent, or the too-trusting population that allows such people to lead them? This is a wake-up call: we must become informed, passionate citizens or suffer the consequences of our own ignorance and apathy. We can no longer measure a leader’s worth by the yardsticks provided by the left or the right. Instead, we must use an unchanging standard: the pure, unvarnished truth.
