The 4 Essentials

A Misfit's Journey to Mindset, Strategies, Values & Purpose (With Over 100 Famous Mentors and Entrepreneurs)

By: Cliff Michaels

In 2012, The 4 Essentials launched #1 on Amazon and #3 on the NY Times Bestseller List. Taking readers on a street-smart journey through life, mentors, and business, Cliff proposes a radical shift in global education and career training. He also dispels many myths about how we define and create success. Through his trials and triumphs, Cliff shares lessons from the edge as a dyslexic student who challenged the status quo in college, dropped out of USC at 19, and went on to launch companies in real estate, finance, education, and technology, all before age 30. Drawing on dozens of iconic mentors from Socrates, Edison, and da Vinci to Mycoskie, Oprah, Malala, and Branson, Cliff provides thought-provoking stories on The 4 Essentials (mindset, strategies, values, purpose) that empower us to earn a real-world MBA (Masters in Basic Abilities). This is a fun, fast-paced read for anyone in search of passion, purpose, and results! PEER REVIEWS ''Cliff's writing is full of creativity, inspiration, and practical lessons. I highly recommend The 4 Essentials.'' Blake Mycoskie • Founder, TOMS Shoes ''Cliff Michaels delivers a powerful path to profits, passion, and purpose.'' Tony Hsieh • CEO, Zappos “Cliff provides entrepreneurial conditioning with an achiever’s mindset.” Darren Hardy • Publisher, SUCCESS Magazine ''The 4 Essentials is a fun read. Like Cliff, it's full of passion with a blend of new ideas and timeless wisdom.'' Dave Logan • Former Associate Dean, USC Business School

How Stupid Are We?

By: Cliff Somers

How Stupid Are We?

By: Cliff Somers

How Stupid Are We? sets forth a detailed but mercifully short explanation of why and how the far right wealthy have usurped the Republican Party to ensure that their agenda is followed and their power is complete. The book deals with the incredible amount of money spent over more than three decades in this endeavor and shows the methods employed in order to increase the wealth disparity in this country, to disenfranchise the minorities and the working poor, to deny the obvious as to climate change, the dangers of smoking, acid rain, and the ozone hole, for example. It outlines the political tactics used to obstruct the passage of legislation favorable to the lower 99 percent. It discloses how the education system of the country has been invaded and our youth are being indoctrinated with self-destructive beliefs. The doctrine of "supply side" or "trickle down" economics is shown to have been instrumental in misleading and beggaring the lower 99 percent. Somers pulls no punches and works from an obvious passion. The book is pitched to the average literate reader and is not couched in abstruse or technical language.

Control Freak

My Epic Adventure Making Video Games

By: Cliff Bleszinski

The designer of Unreal and Gears of War offers an eye-opening personal account of the video game industry as it grew from niche hobby to hundred-billion-dollar enterprise. Video games are dominating the planet. In 2020, they brought in $180 billion dollars globally—nearly $34 billion in the United States alone. So who are the brilliant designers who create these stunning virtual worlds? Cliff Bleszinski—or CliffyB as he is known to gamers—is one of the few who’ve reached mythical, rock star status. In Control Freak, he gives an unvarnished, all-access tour of the business. Toiling away in his bedroom, Bleszinski created and shipped his first game before graduating high school, and at just seventeen joined a fledgling company called Epic Games. He describes the grueling hours, obscene amounts of Mountain Dew and obsessive focus necessary to achieve his singular creative visions. He details Epic’s rise to industry leader, thanks largely to his work on bestselling franchises Unreal and Gears of War (and, later, his input on a little game called Fortnite), as well as his own awkward ascent from shy, acne-riddled introvert to sports car-driving celebrity rubbing shoulders with Bill Gates. As he writes, “No one is weirder than a nerd with money.” While the book is laced with such self-deprecating humor, Bleszinski also bluntly addresses the challenges that have long-faced the gaming community, including sexism and a lack of representation among both designers and the characters they create. Control Freak is a hilarious, thoughtful, and inspiring memoir. Even if you don’t play games, you’ll walk away from this book recognizing them as a true art form and appreciating the genius of their creators.

Behaving Badly: Richard Harris

Behaving Badly: Richard Harris

By: Cliff Goodwin

Richard Harris was never an easy person to get along with. He was a difficult schoolboy (and was later disowned by his Limerick teachers), then he went to work in the family flour and milling business - where he organised a strike against his father. It was as a gifted and compelling actor that Richard Harris dominated stage and screen for more than four decades. He was nominated for an Oscar twice: for his earthy portrayal of a rugby player in This Sporting Life and as a dominant and bullish Irish farmer in The Field. More recently he delivered gripping screen performances in Gladiator and two Harry Potter films. But it was his violent, drunken, womanising private life that fed the public myth and made Harris, one of a new breed of rogue male actors, an international celebrity. Married and divorced twice, with three sons - two actors, one a film director - he claimed the only time he had been miscast was as a husband. His lovers included legends such as Merle Oberon, Sophia Loren, Ava Gardner and Vanessa Redgrave.
