This Is Worth Remembering

From Ann Handley, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Everybody Writes, comes a smart, timely, clear-eyed guide to knowing when to speed up, when to slow down, and when the shortcut costs more than it saves. You already know how to go fast. What nobody taught you is when not to. In ASAP: As SLOW As Possible, Ann Handley rebels against the false urgency baked into modern work and life—and shows you how to recognize Slowments: the moments when slowing down is not weakness, hesitation, or delay. It's the smarter move. Because when everyone has access to the same shortcuts, the real edge is knowing when not to take them. With research, brain science, vivid storytelling, and Handley’s signature wit, ASAP: As SLOW As Possible reveals the hidden speed traps that weaken our judgment, creativity, and original thinking—especially in an age when AI makes the fastest path feel like the smartest one—and gives you a practical way to know when speed is serving you and when it’s taking you farther from what matters. You'll discover: <ul><li>The Hasty Progress Illusion—why motion can feel like mastery, even when nothing lasting is taking hold</li><li>The ASAP Matrix—how to know exactly when to autopilot, when to pause, and when a moment deserves more of you</li><li>The six Slowments in life and in work—the pivotal moments when slowing down changes what happens next</li><li>How to protect your judgment in a world eager to outsource it</li><li>When choosing analog leads to sharper ideas, wiser decisions, more creative approaches, stronger relationships, and meaningful work</li><li>How to stop confusing speed with progress—and start choosing the pace the moment actually requires</li></ul> ASAP: As SLOW As Possible reveals slowness as a generative force and for the first time gives you a way to harness life’s most important slow moments. Not by doing less, opting out, or becoming the kind of person who ferments things in a shed. But by knowing when speed helps—and when it hollows out the very thing you hoped it would serve. It’s time to choose the long road when the shortcut costs too much.

»Generation Gwinn!« 
 So titelte der Spiegel und Giulia Gwinn macht dieser Schlagzeile alle Ehre. Bereits als Kind schlich sie sich förmlich davon, um mit den Jungs Fußball zu spielen – ihre eigene Mutter war anfangs nämlich noch dagegen. Doch Giulia 
 folgte ihrer Leidenschaft
 , setzte sich 
 gegen alle Widerstände 
 durch und feierte als 18-Jährige ihr Debüt für die deutsche Nationalmannschaft. Selbst von zwei Kreuzbandrissen ließ sie sich nicht ausbremsen. Im Gegenteil: 
 Sie kam noch stärker zurück
 und reifte beim FC Bayern München und im DFB-Team zur Führungsspielerin. 
 
 Giulia Gwinn ist 
 Kapitänin der deutschen Fußball-Nationalmannschaft
 , Olympia-Bronze-Gewinnerin und mehrmalige Deutsche Meisterin. Die Fans wählten sie zur 
 Nationalspielerin des Jahres 2024 und 2019
 , das Forbes-Magazin nahm sie 2022 zudem unter seine Top 30 unter 30 auf. Auf Instagram erreicht und inspiriert Gwinn weit mehr als eine halbe Million Menschen. Parallel zum Fußball studiert sie Sportmanagement und lebt eine große Leidenschaft für Hunde und Fashion. 
 
 Sie beweist: 
 
 • Warum es sich lohnt, immer weiterzukämpfen und 
 das eigene Ziel nie aus den Augen zu verlieren
 . 
 
 • Welch 
 große Wirkung 
 gelebte 
 Werte und Glaubenssätze 
 haben. 
 
 • Wie wichtig es ist, 
 sich selbst treu zu bleiben
 . 
 
 Giulia verspürte von klein auf einen inneren Antrieb, 
 ihren eigenen Weg zu gehen
 , ihre ganz eigene Geschichte zu schreiben. Diese besondere Story hat sie für uns alle aufgeschrieben und nun erscheint sie erstmals als Taschenbuch. 
 
 Ausstattung: 8-seitiger Bildteil

Wer wissen möchte, wie es um den Westen bestellt ist, muss nur die James-Bond-Reihe befragen. 
 50 Shades of Grey
 lässt ein Aufblühen der Prüderie erkennen, und die Rückkehr des Autoritarismus haben bereits 
 Star Wars
 und die diversen Verfilmungen von Marvel-Comics vorweggenommen. Vor allem große Blockbuster führen uns die herrschenden Ideologien unserer Zeit vor Augen. Doch wenn wir bloß schauen, sehen wir sie nicht.
 
 Wolfgang M. Schmitt zeigt, wie uns der Film - gerade dank seiner Künstlichkeit, der Montage, Stars und Spezialeffekte - einen anderen, mit der Brille der Fiktion geschärften Blick auf die Realität und auf uns selbst eröffnet. Sein ungewöhnlicher Ratgeber ist eine Liebeserklärung an Hollywood und zugleich ein flammendes Plädoyer für ein ideologiekritisches, kontraintuitives Sehen.

In der Menschheitsgeschichte ist der Nationalstaat eine neue Erfindung. Erst im 20. Jahrhundert wurde er zur weltweiten Norm. Heute ist er womöglich schon wieder ein Auslaufmodell. Ökologische Katastrophen, globale Migrationsbewegungen, die wachsende Macht der Tech-Konzerne und transnationale Finanzströme stellen die Annahme infrage, dass Politik innerhalb fester Landesgrenzen stattfinden muss – und kann. Rana Dasgupta zeichnet die Entstehung und den Aufstieg des Staatensystems nach, um die Ursachen für sein vielfältiges Scheitern zu ergründen. Ausgehend von vier Machtzentren – Frankreich, Großbritannien, USA und China – erzählt er die globale Geschichte einer politischen Form, die heute an den Bedingungen zerbricht, die sie einst ermöglicht haben.Elegant und mit Blick für vergessene Details führt uns der preisgekrönte Autor vom Untergang alter Imperien und von der Ausbreitung europäischer Geld- und Rechtskonzepte bis hin zur epochalen Wiederherstellung chinesischer Macht. Dasgupta fragt: Wie könnte eine flexible Ordnung im planetaren Zeitalter aussehen? Und welche Rolle spielt die Religion in einer Welt nach den Nationen? Eine beeindruckende Reise zu den Ursprüngen der Nation, um Antworten für die Zukunft zu finden.

Two of the world's leading researchers on behavior and decision-making join forces to equip readers with the knowledge, tools, and techniques to live our best, most human lives in an age of machines. “The real problem of humanity is the following: We have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions and godlike technology. And it is terrifically dangerous.” —E.O WilsonOur choices and experience of the world are increasingly shaped by powerful interests and godlike technology. Somebody else is deciding what ‘good’ choices look like—and often that means good for them, not for you. From the social media apps hijacking your attention and algorithms quietly curating your reality, to the markets profiting from confusion and AI systems slowly eroding your thinking: your choices are shaped by people who understand your psychology better than you do, and use that knowledge for their own ends. Against this backdrop, it is easy to feel diminished and 'done to'.This book is about fighting back—individually and collectively—and becoming the best of ourselves. Becoming super-humans. Drawing on over 1,000 experiments run across more than 70 countries, Halpern and Costa show how you can boost your own agency and decision-making, how we can upgrade our systems and institutions so that it is easier for everyone to choose well, and how we can shape AI so that it amplifies human capability rather than replacing it.Super-Human ultimately asks us to make the biggest choice of all: in an age when machines can think, decide and even feel on our behalf—what kind of humans do we want to be? <ul><li>Human. Reclaiming agency and becoming a better decision-maker (Chapters 1-3). Understanding how human attention and sense-making works, so that we can self-guide, rather than be hacked by others - and more effectively turn our intentions into action.</li><li>Supra-human. Building systems that support us to choose well together. (Chapters 4-7). Humans are social creatures, who think aloud and together. It's a feature not a fault. Social networks, markets and institutions strongly enable us to achieve things we could never do alone, but also operate as ‘supra-human’ influences on our behavior. Yet individually and collectively we have power to channel and shape them too - more power than we realize</li><li>Super-human. Shaping the technology that will shape us. (Chapter 8) AI could be the ultimate ‘bicycle of the mind’, but it can also become a crutch rather than a coach. It poses opportunity and challenge - to boost our capabilities to superhuman levels, or to become our inadvertent master.</li><li>Future-human. What kind of humans do we ultimately want to be? (Conclusion) Our minds today have been shaped by the technologies and institutions of our ancestors, in ways they could not have anticipated. We can make choices that will alter our minds and those that follow: what shall we choose?</li></ul>

Reclaiming Our Power to Choose and Shape the Future

In collaboration with JVL Media—a captivating exploration of why many high-performing Black business leaders attribute their transformational leadership qualities to their experiences growing up in the Black Church and how we can foster these skills in younger generations despite waning church attendance.The Black church in the U.S. has long been a “one-stop shop” for developing Black leaders, teaching them many of the qualities required to lead effectively in today’s ultra-competitive, digital, and swiftly transforming corporate world. Many high-performing Black leaders benefited from their experiences growing up in this cultural institution steeped in rich history.Merging cultural study with applied neuroscience and tenets of positive psychology, L. Michelle Smith dissect how these qualities are demonstrated by leaders across industries, from resiliency to their sense of undeniable purpose, their ability to build community and collaborative environments, the delivery and language of their speaking style to their unique leadership flair. She reveals how this historic institution has served as a timeless wellspring of leadership development, empowerment, and cultural preservation and ultimately, is Black leaders’ “secret sauce.”Call and Response also explores whether the Black Church will be able to continue to ingrain these skills in future generations. Smith examines how cultural shifts have resulted in a decline in church attendance, how online attendance has risen since the Covid pandemic, and finally, how Black leaders may—or may not—be passing these traditions down to their children.
