The Chinese-backed guerrillas called it the War of the Running Dogs-their contemptuous term for those in Malaya who remained loyal to the British. The British Government referred to this bloody and costly struggle as the 'Malayan Emergency'. Yet it was a war that lasted twelve years and cost thousands of lives. By the time it was over Malaya had obtained its independence-but on British, not on Chinese or Communist terms. Here is the war as it was. Here are the planters and their wives on their remote rubber estates, the policemen, the generals and the soldiers, the Malays, Chinese and Indians of a polyglot country, all fighting an astute, ruthless, and well-organized enemy. ![The Wandering Mind What Medieval Monks Tell Us About Distraction [Audiobook]](https://i121.fastpic.org/big/2023/0331/1a/10905e624b9f8f5e362474a8b7faed1a.jpeg) Free Download The Wandering Mind: What Medieval Monks Tell Us About Distraction (Audiobook) English | ASIN: B0BZFFC6PP | 2023 | 5 hours and 31 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 299 MB Author: Jamie Kreiner Narrator: Jamie Kreiner The digital era is beset by distraction, and it feels like things are only getting worse. At times like these, the distant past beckons as a golden age of attention. We dream of recapturing the quiet of a world with less noise. We imagine retreating into solitude and singlemindedness, almost like latter-day monks. But although we think of early monks as master concentrators, a life of mindfulness did not, in fact, come to them easily. As historian Jamie Kreiner demonstrates in The Wandering Mind, their attempts to stretch the mind out to God-to continuously contemplate the divine order and its ethical requirements-were all-consuming, and their battles against distraction were never-ending.

Especially in today work's environment, you will need to work well and get along with others in order to strive for a common goal.Yet, there are those who still prefer to be the lone wolf of the pack...and that person may even be you or somebody you work with.After all, why work in a team when you can work by yourself and have full free reign and control to do whatever you want 100% to your liking without others' interference?* Firstly, it's not always about you...in fact, it should never be about one's personal self-interests.* Secondly, one as a TEAM can accomplish more than one as an INDIVIDUAL. That much is obvious that you'll get more done in less time.Then why aren't more people team players?There are common problems that can arise from working on any team, thus making certain folks loathe it or avoid it due to multiple huge egos, clashing personalities, disagreeable approaches, different thinking styles, or simply one's natural introversion...all of which are understandable.As much we would like to take pride in our self-sufficient independence, we are still humans and can't do everything by ourselves. We all need a helping hand once in a while, so utilize your strengths and delegate your weaknesses. This particularly rings true for any leadership or team management role requiring handling and pulling a group of people together as one.Then how do you get people who have strengths in different areas to eagerly collaborate with everybody else as a unified team to achieve success? This type of leadership power for effective teamwork can be found in "The One of Power."The "one of power" is indeed your "one team" that when united can bring about unlimited power to work miracles.
