Winning with the Dragon by Chris Ward Pdf

The Dragon variation of the Sicilian defence is a devastating weapon in the hands of a well-prepared player. Previous books on the Dragon have emphasized the need to memorize reams of theoretical variations, but instead, in this book, the author suggests a commonsense approach which will cut out much of the need for rote learning. He pinpoints the most critical lines and shows that the Black, contrary to popular belief, actually has quite a wide choice against most systems.

Riding the Dragon by Robert J. Wicks Pdf

“Riding the Dragon gives the reader the chance to look for the lessons that are often hidden in our sorrows.”—Goodreads reviewer Twenty years and 70,000 copies after it was first released, Riding the Dragon—by popular author, speaker, and psychologist Robert J. Wicks—continues to help thousands each year to confront the “dragons” of stress, discouragement, burnout, and unexpected change that everyone struggles with in their daily lives. Instead of pretending these difficulties don’t exist or trying to remove them entirely, Wicks offers ten lessons to help us face them, overcome them, and grow from them. These simple yet profound lessons draw on the wisdom of Eastern and Western spiritual traditions as well as Wicks’s experience as a psychologist, and include pairing clarity with kindness, seeking perspective daily, and building a barrier of simplicity. Riding the Dragon is a concise, compassionate, and knowledgeable guide for anyone experiencing or supporting someone facing personal or professional challenges. This twentieth anniversary edition features a new preface from the author, highlighting how Riding the Dragon is, perhaps now more than ever, an indispensable spiritual and psychological companion for all of us who are yearning for our lives to be transformed.
