Birth of a Gangster

 


by J.J. Caniglia 



As the Scarpacci family tires of the poor lifestyle of early 1900's Sicily, emigrating to the new world seems to be the best solution. As the family arrives in America, they discover all of the perks also come with cons. The new neighborhood is controlled by a ruthless organization that is involved with extortion and murder. The family suffers their share of loss and the two young sons, Yano and Gino, are forced to grow into men while still in their childhood years. This is a story of vengeance, an eye for an eye. Though these two young boys decide that an eye isn't enough to make up for the pain in which they are caused. They want the entire head. Yano and Gino set out to balance the scales, but ultimately turn into the very thing in which they set out to fight against.

Unstuck:

Think Like a Kid and Free Your Mind


From the winner of Australia China Alumni Award

As a first-time father, seasoned professional with a promising career, Aaron Pang thought he had life figured out. But even as he appeared to be meeting all of society’s expectations, something was wrong. By the time he understood the toll his stressful life was taking on his physical and mental health, it was almost too late. But through challenging his emotions and self-limiting beliefs, Aaron pivoted and transformed himself from a lost man into a thought leader in self-improvement and motivation. He became an author, a podcaster, transformation coach, TEDx and keynote speaker, and digital advisor at Microsoft.

In Unstuck, Aaron shares his unique journey and reveals how we can all take cues from our childhood selves, find clarity in discomfort and restore our innate curious mind. Aaron calls this Transformative Purpose, and his story along with fascinating sharing from his podcast guests (including authors, athletes, business leaders, psychologists, scientists, renowned coaches and global speakers) illuminate how anyone can take a fresh approach to gain new perspective, feel happy and fulfilled, and redefine their own success.

This book is for anyone who wants to gain a new perspective in times of uncertainty. Whether you are a student, graduate or grown-up, we all get stuck across different stages of our life. Getting stuck in life is our invitation to grow. Our anxiety for the future can be a powerful cue to look inward and rediscover ourselves.
