Thapa D: THE POWER OF HOPE AND BELIEF

THE POWER OF HOPE AND BELIEF

Certainty, Uncertainty, Struggle, and Success Through the Strength of Hope

Drawing on seven years of field research in the sex industry, this book explores the transformative potential of entrepreneurship. The authors take readers into the worlds of feminist pornography, modern burlesque, escort collectives, erotic domination, and non-profit support organizations to share stories of the women and transgender people using their businesses to challenge dehumanization. In doing so, the book shows how entrepreneurship is not just a tool for economic emancipation, but a vehicle for reclaiming humanity. These insights challenge dominant narratives about sex work, gender, and stigmatized labour, while extending scholarship on entrepreneurship and institutional theory. The authors ultimately show that even in the most constrained and stigmatized environments, people can shape work on their own terms.

Challenging Dehumanization Through Entrepreneurship in the Sex Industry

Bodies of Resistance

What if the key to success in a world of constant change was never really grit, or persistence - but curiosity? The modern era asks us to optimise ourselves into corners and build lives that run predictably while we stall inside. And the very blueprint we've been handed for success - one of relentless specialization - is not only incomplete, but completely counterproductive to a fulfilling life.Fusing groundbreaking research, elite business insights, and thrilling studies of history's greatest polymaths, Harvard educator Dr. T. Alexander Puutio uncovers the simple truth behind resilient, fulfilling lives: they're built in loops, not ladders.From Leonardo da Vinci to Steve Jobs, the people who shape the future don't follow straight lines - they explore widely, quit strategically, and stay flexible enough to keep becoming someone new.In a world that breaks ladders as fast as you can climb them, the code of curiosity offers a powerful model for thriving in uncertainty. Exploiting a loop of exploration, feedback and reinvention, curiosity is a force that supercharges our brain's capacity to learn and innovate. Those who can harness the cycle unlock not just a serious strategic edge, but a better way to cultivate a meaningful life.A joyful book that speaks to the meaning vacuum of modern life, The Curiosity Code upends the traditional pillars of self-development. Instead, it offers a bold, practical blueprint for navigating change, reclaiming agency, and building a life that evolves as fast as the world around you.

THE #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER As seen in TIME Magazine and on High Performance podcast 'This book could change your life' - Time Out 'A remarkable reflection on values and psychology based on hard-won experience' - Rory Stewart Expert advice to master your potential, from the founder and CEO of Discovery and Vitality. Adrian Gore built a company from a single, bold idea into a global financial group serving over 50 million customers across more than forty markets. He didn't just scale a business; he created a whole new shared-value business model, a system so revolutionary it's taught as a case study at Harvard Business School and has been recognized by Fortune magazine as 'changing the world'. In The Four Principles, Gore reveals the framework and guiding principles that powered this success for the first time. Moving beyond standard leadership advice, he explores the behavioural science and 'multiplier effect' that occur when these four principles intersect:<ol><li>Disciplined Optimism: We have a default tendency to seek out negative signals. Learn why choosing optimism is the most rational path to seizing overlooked opportunities.</li><li>Focused Urgency: Why your perceived time to make an impact is shorter than you think. Recognizing this can act as your greatest motivator.</li><li>Declared Goals: Psychologically, avoiding a loss feels twice as important as achieving a gain. Setting bold goals triggers this force, unlocking radical motivation and decisive action.</li><li>The 'Pareto Tail': Building on the other principles, learning to identify and target a few high-power decisions can determine your life's entire trajectory.</li></ol> Gore argues that our instincts, shaped for a simpler, linear world, often mislead us in today's complex, networked age. The Four Principles challenges these outdated mental models and shows you how to harness your potential for truly remarkable results - personally and professionally. 'Demonstrates how to create enduring value' - Larry Fink, Chairman and CEO of BlackRock 'Important reading for those aspiring to leadership or seeking to make an impact on the world' - Lord William Hague, Chancellor of the University of Oxford 'The Four Principles distils decades of leadership and insight into a practical framework that explains what matters - and why' - Sir Mark Tucker, Chairman, AIA Group 'For leaders seeking to create outsized impact' - Ruth Porat, President and CIO of Alphabet and Google
