From one of the most inspiring and acclaimed young voices, storyteller Torrey C. Butler takes readers into the world of an African American teen, wrestling with his environment to become something greater. What happens when they are no longer clapping for you? Eighteen-year-old Xavier “Zay” Dunn is the star basketball player at Magnolia Senior High School. With his skills and seemingly bright future, nothing can stop him from making it to college from his underprivileged neighborhood. Except one thing — decisions. Just as he finds his footing, avoiding the peer pressure and negative influences from his environment, the sudden passing of his mother stuns his world. The walls are closing in more than ever when he is falsely accused of a crime that would change his life, forever. Instantly he watches everything he’s worked hard for dissipate before his eyes. Once full of tremendous potential, Zay falls into the pit of his unforgiving neighborhood as he navigates life to find himself. Mistake after mistake, he reaches his lowest points but somehow, someway, he knows that he must find The Right Way To Go. *America’s Next Great Author Semifinalist Book Review 1: “He’s an author... A huge author at that.” —The Biggest Boss, Rick Ross Book Review 2: “The Right Way To Go, by Torrey C. Butler, regularly ended chapters with cliffhangers, enticing readers to keep going.” —Elite Authors Book Review 3: “Torrey is wise for his years as he demonstrates the power to rise from a tough childhood... now a role model for resilience. One of the best biographies I’ve ever read. Where Do I Go from Here?” —Next Generation Indie Book Awards Judge Book Review 4: “It can honestly be hard to find a book as raw as this one. Torrey stayed true to his words and gave us a glimpse into his life, unfiltered.” —OnlineBookClub Book Review 5: “Torrey’s conversational voice makes it easy for readers to connect and even relate.” —Booklife Review Book Review 6: “The cast is soundly developed, as Zay’s first-person narration periodically shifts to others’, including Baby Man and Bobbie. These characters make deep connections or harbor overwhelming guilt from something they’ve done years ago... A sharp, well-written, and unrelenting work... with a knotty finale.” —Kirkus Reviews

Forget the 10,000 hour rule— what if it’s possible to learn the basics of any new skill in 20 hours or less? Take a moment to consider how many things you want to learn to do. What’s on your list? What’s holding you back from getting started? Are you worried about the time and effort it takes to acquire new skills—time you don’t have and effort you can’t spare? Research suggests it takes 10,000 hours to develop a new skill. In this nonstop world when will you ever find that much time and energy? To make matters worse, the early hours of practicing something new are always the most frustrating. That’s why it’s difficult to learn how to speak a new language, play an instrument, hit a golf ball, or shoot great photos. It’s so much easier to watch TV or surf the web . . . In The First 20 Hours, Josh Kaufman offers a systematic approach to rapid skill acquisition— how to learn any new skill as quickly as possible. His method shows you how to deconstruct complex skills, maximize productive practice, and remove common learning barriers. By completing just 20 hours of focused, deliberate practice you’ll go from knowing absolutely nothing to performing noticeably well. Kaufman personally field-tested the methods in this book. You’ll have a front row seat as he develops a personal yoga practice, writes his own web-based computer programs, teaches himself to touch type on a nonstandard keyboard, explores the oldest and most complex board game in history, picks up the ukulele, and learns how to windsurf. Here are a few of the simple techniques he teaches: Define your target performance level: Figure out what your desired level of skill looks like, what you’re trying to achieve, and what you’ll be able to do when you’re done. The more specific, the better. Deconstruct the skill: Most of the things we think of as skills are actually bundles of smaller subskills. If you break down the subcomponents, it’s easier to figure out which ones are most important and practice those first. Eliminate barriers to practice: Removing common distractions and unnecessary effort makes it much easier to sit down and focus on deliberate practice. Create fast feedback loops: Getting accurate, real-time information about how well you’re performing during practice makes it much easier to improve. Whether you want to paint a portrait, launch a start-up, fly an airplane, or juggle flaming chainsaws, The First 20 Hours will help you pick up the basics of any skill in record time . . . and have more fun along the way.

From the host of the YouTube channel that went viral—Dad, How Do I?—comes a book that’s part memoir/part inspiration/part DIY. Rob Kenney’s father left him and his seven siblings when he was fourteen years old, and the youngest had to fend for themselves. He wished that he had someone who could teach him the basics—how to tie a tie, jump-start a car, unclog a drain, use tools properly—as well as succeed in life. But he and his siblings had to figure these things out on their own. Now a father himself, Rob decided that he would help people out by providing how-to tips as well as advice—and even throw in some bad dad jokes. He started a YouTube channel for anyone looking for fatherly advice, and in the course of three months, gained a following of nearly 2.5 million subscribers, with millions of views for his how-to and inspirational videos. In this book, Rob shares his story of overcoming a difficult childhood with the strength of faith and family, and offers inspiration and hope. In addition, he provides 50 practical DYI instructions (30 of which will be unique to the book), illustrated with helpful line drawings.

The most popular go-to-market models for international expansion and scaleup involve working with and through distributor partners in different go-to-market models. Such markets are often described as 'partnership' or 'distributor' markets and are prevalent in emerging markets. Such markets offer good opportunities for growth and expansion. The challenge for many companies operating internationally through distributors can be summarised as: "How to deliver and achieve a scalable critical mass within five years". Success and scalability have eluded many seniors operating in distributor markets. The typical results experienced by so many company seniors often result in clusters of small value businesses that barely grow or make any impression on the numbers presented and agreed in the investment case. Such numbers are defined as "the critical mass" to be achieved. In short, many executives fail to deliver their agreed numbers over successive years. Anyone can be forgiven once for missing their numbers. But it becomes a habit when they fail to deliver their numbers over several years. In short, they could not find "the right way" to succeed. This book explains why so many executives failed so often and how to find "the right way" to succeed in international expansion and scale-ups. Amit Vaidya proposes that success is down to three key factors: 1. The design of the Go-to-Market Model. 2. Finding and selecting the best-fit distributor partner in that model. 3. Having the right talent to deliver the critical mass in international scale-up. He explains in detail: - The importance of both a quantitative and a qualitative assessment in selecting international markets for scaleup. - The different models available for international scaleup and their pros and cons including legal affiliates and local manufacturing options. - Why some models and people can deliver critical mass and others can't. - The distributor models that have the best chance to deliver a critical mass and why. - How to find good distributor partners. - The difference between wholesalers, distributors and distribution service providers and their ability to deliver a critical mass. - The key situations that should trigger a review of your distributor relationship. - How to find and pick good international business managers to lead the international scale-up. The content is entirely based on his experience and real life, not textbook theories. This makes the book rather unique in its offering and content. With this practical guide to designing the best international go-to-market models through distributors, readers will learn how to avoid the mistakes made so often by so many and will discover "the right way" to succeed.
