The legendary leadership guide, distilled from a lifetime of wisdom and experience in government and business
Throughout his long and distinguished career—as a naval aviator, a U.S. Congressman, a top aide to four American presidents, a high-level diplomat, a CEO of two Fortune 500 companies, and the only twice-serving Secretary of Defense in American history—Donald Rumsfeld has collected hundreds of pithy, compelling, and often humorous observations about leadership, business, and life. When President Gerald Ford ordered these aphorisms distributed to his White House staff in 1974, the collection became known as “Rumsfeld’s Rules.”
First gathered as three-by-five cards in a shoebox and then typed up and circulated informally over the years, these eminently nonpartisan rules have amused and enlightened presidents, business executives, chiefs of staff, foreign officials, diplomats, and members of Congress. They earned praise from the Wall Street Journal as “Required reading,” and from the New York Times which said: “Rumsfeld’s Rules can be profitably read in any organization…The best reading, though, are his sprightly tips on inoculating oneself against that dread White House disease, the inflated ego.”
Meanwhile, the collection continued to grow as Rumsfeld added new rules derived from things he read, heard, or observed in more than eight decades of a remarkable life. Now these legendary rules are made available for the first time to corporate executive. Rumsfeld has selected his most useful and important rules for effective leadership, enhanced with fresh insights and entertaining anecdotes, and discusses them in the blunt and witty style that made his Pentagon press conferences “must-see TV.”
Distilled from a career of unusual breadth and accomplishment, and organized under practical topics like hiring people, running a meeting, and dealing with the press, Rumsfeld’s Rules can benefit people at every stage in their careers and in every walk of life, from aspiring politicos and industrialists to recent college graduates, teachers, and business leaders.
The book provides unprecedented insight into leadership, management, strategy, and life—thinking that not only helped Rumsfeld lead the Pentagon in wartime, but earned him a reputation as one of America’s toughest and most effective CEOs. (Amazon.com)

What Book is Glenn Beck Calling an ABOMINATION?
Jefferson’s Sons: A Founding Father’s Secret Children is considered a children’s book but its agenda is apparent and that is why Glenn Beck called it an “abomination.” It’s sad that many feel it their purpose to lie and destroy the Founding Fathers such as Thomas Jefferson and gear that message in a fictional children’s book. We should the video of Glenn talking about this book and will have it posted here. And of course Jefferson’s Sons is now a critically acclaimed and “imaginative” book, just look at the reviews:
- “A big, serious work of historical investigation and imagination; the tale has never before been told this well.” (Kirkus, starred review )
- “[an] eye-opening and powerful novel.” (The Horn Book, starred review )
- “Bradley’s fine characterization and cinematic prose breathe life into this tragic story.” (School Library Journal, starred review )
- “Bradley’s sensitive and richly imagined vision pays respect to those who struggled for lives of stability and dignity, even as the whims and fortunes of the Jeffersons shifted beneath them.” (Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books, starred review )
- “This well-researched and moving novel provides insight into their lives as it raises important and difficult questions.” (American Library Association )
- “The young innocents’ elemental questions raise fundamental issues for the reader. How could founding father Jefferson sell off Maddy’s best friend? What does it mean, ‘all people are created equal?’” (Booklist )

This story of Thomas Jefferson’s children by one of his slaves, Sally Hemings, tells a darker piece of America’s history from an often unseen perspective-that of three of Jefferson’s slaves-including two of his own children. As each child grows up and tells his story, the contradiction between slavery and freedom becomes starker, calling into question the real meaning of “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” This poignant story sheds light on what life was like as one of Jefferson’s invisible offspring.

Glenn Beck has talked many times about his security detail run by Gavin de Becker. Glenn talked, again, about de Becker’s book The Gift of Fear and Other Survival Signals that Protect Us From Violence and shared a little of de Becker’s message and how hope in fear is what probably kept the three captives alive.

When our founding fathers secured the Constitutional “right of the people to keep and bear arms,” they also added the admonition that this right SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.
It is the only time this phrase appears in the Bill of Rights. So why aren’t more people listening?
History has proven that guns are essential to self-defense and liberty—but tragedy is a powerful force and has led many to believe that guns are the enemy, that the Second Amendment is outdated, and that more restrictions or outright bans on firearms will somehow solve everything.
They are wrong.
In CONTROL, Glenn Beck presents a passionate, fact-based case for guns that reveals why gun control isn’t really about controlling guns at all; it’s about controlling us. In doing so, he takes on and debunks the common myths and outright lies that are often used to vilify guns and demean their owners:
The Second Amendment is ABOUT MUSKETS . . . GUN CONTROL WORKS in other countries . . . 40 percent of all guns are sold without BACKGROUND CHECKS . . . More GUNS MEAN more MURDER . . . Mass shootings are becoming more common . . . These awful MASSACRES ARE UNIQUE TO AMERICA . . . No CIVILIAN needs a “weapon of war” like the AR-15 . . . ARMED GUARDS in schools do nothing, just look at Columbine . . . Stop FEARMONGERING, no one is talking about TAKING YOUR GUNS AWAY.
Backed by hundreds of sources, this handbook gives everyone who cares about the Second Amendment the indisputable facts they need to reclaim the debate, defeat the fear, and take back their natural rights. (Amazon.com)
Glenn Beck’s Book “CONTROL: Exposing the Truth About Guns”
Control: Exposing the Truth About Guns is Glenn Beck’s latest book. Glenn Beck was to release a new book early 2013 entitled Glenn Beck’s The American Crisis: An Urgent Message About the Coming Times That Will Try Men’s Souls, which will now be released sometime in 2014, but with President Obama’s and and Diane Feinstein’s attack on the 2nd amendment Beck saw the urgent need for real research to be done on the topic since today’s media have a different “Agenda.” Beck has joined together with top gun experts and researchers to gather facts so that 2nd amendment proponents can arm themselves with facts and stats. Beck even priced the book so that it is cheap enough to share and give to people you know! Get your copy NOW!

Once again Glenn Beck mentions Viktor E. Frankl’s Book “Man’s Search for Meaning”
Glenn Beck once again dropped the name of a book he has already help make a best-seller, Victor E. Frankl’s Man’s Search for Meaning. Back in 2010 Glenn Beck brought the book out into the light after it was published in 1946. In the aftermath of the Boston Terror Bombings Glenn talked about Frankl’s book and the message of life’s purpose and making a positive outcome. Frankl was a survivor of Auschwitz and chronicles the positive attitude it took to survive the horrific WWII concentration camp, much like the movie A Beautiful Life. Beck knew that the positive message within Man’s Search for Meaning is important in helping Bostonians and those affected by the bombing to move forward and to not give into the cries for greater Government over site.
Click here for Man’s Search for Meaning
Psychiatrist Viktor Frankl’s memoir has riveted generations of readers with its descriptions of life in Nazi death camps and its lessons for spiritual survival. Between 1942 and 1945 Frankl labored in four different camps, including Auschwitz, while his parents, brother, and pregnant wife perished. Based on his own experience and the experiences of those he treated in his practice, Frankl argues that we cannot avoid suffering but we can choose how to cope with it, find meaning in it, and move forward with renewed purpose. Frankl’s theory—known as logotherapy, from the Greek word logos (“meaning”)—holds that our primary drive in life is not pleasure, as Freud maintained, but the discovery and pursuit of what we personally find meaningful.
At the time of Frankl’s death in 1997, Man’s Search for Meaning had sold more than 10 million copies in twenty-four languages. A 1991 reader survey by the Library of Congress and the Book-of-the-Month Club that asked readers to name a “book that made a difference in your life” found Man’s Search for Meaning among the ten most influential books in America.
Born in Vienna in 1905 Viktor E. Frankl earned an M.D. and a Ph.D. from the University of Vienna. He published more than thirty books on theoretical and clinical psychology and served as a visiting professor and lecturer at Harvard, Stanford, and elsewhere. In 1977 a fellow survivor, Joseph Fabry, founded the Viktor Frankl Institute of Logotherapy. Frankl died in 1997. (Amazon.com)
