Great photographs change the way we see the world. The Ongoing Moment changes the way we look at both. With characteristic perversity and trademark originality, The Ongoing Moment is Dyer s unique and idiosyncratic history of photography. Seeking to identify their signature styles Dyer looks at the ways canonical figures such as Alfred Stieglitz, Paul Strand, Walker Evans, Kertesz, Dorothea Lange, Diane Arbus and William Eggleston have photographed the same scenes and objects (benches, hats, hands, roads). In doing so Dyer constructs a narrative in which those photographers, many of whom never met in their lives, constantly come into contact with each other. It is the most ambitious example to date of a form of writing that Dyer has made his own: the non-fiction work of art.

This radical new book from Wayne Dyer proposes that we hold the keys to solving any problems we face within us. He sets out basic principles and foundations we can understand and practice in order to access spiritual solutions to any problems we are experiencing. The book is in two sections. The first sets out the theory, the second enables you to put the wisdom into practice.Part 1. The theory:Everything in the Universe is nothing more than energy. Light and though, spiritual energy, vibrates very quickly. Physical energy, and problem areas, vibrate more slowly. When the highest/fastest frequencies of spirit are brought to the presence of lower/slower frequencies, they nullify and dissipate those things we call problems. We all have the ability to increase our energy and access the highest/fastest energies to eradicate problems in our lives. In carefully structured chapters, Wayne Dyer draws on both ancient wisdom and firsthand accounts, and shows how to:stop giving energy to things you don t believe inâ ¢ keep your energy field uncontaminatedâ ¢ raise and maintain your spiritual energy.In the second part of the book, Putting spiritual problem solving into action , Dyer shows how we can transform any negative energy into positive energy:hate into loveâ ¢ hurt into forgivenessâ ¢ doubt into faithâ ¢ despair into hopeâ ¢ sadness into joy

In November 2011, Geoff Dyer fulfilled a childhood dream of spending time on an aircraft carrier. Dyer s stay on the USS George Bush, on active service in the Arabian Gulf, proved even more intense, memorable, and frequently hilarious, than he could ever have hoped. In Dyer s hands, the warship becomes a microcosm for a stocktaking of modern Western life: religion, drugs, chauvinism, farting, gyms, steaks, prayer, parental death, relationships and how to have a beach party with 5000 people on a giant floating hunk of steel. Piercingly perceptive and gloriously funny, this is a unique book about work, war and entering other worlds.

The bestselling author of Your Erroneous Zones, Pulling Your Own Strings, and Wisdom of the Ages combines psychological insights and guidelines for achieving spiritual fulfillment to present a three-step program designed to help readers look inside themselves to find a new sense of self-awareness and spiritual joy. Developing the sacred self, Wayne Dyer explains, brings an understanding of our place in the world and a sense of satisfaction in ourselves and others. In Your Sacred Self, Dyer offers a program that helps listeners establish a spiritually-oriented, rather than an ego-oriented, approach to life. Step by step, Dyer shows us how to progress from emotional awareness to psychological insight to spiritual alternatives in order to change our experience of life from the need to acquire to a sense of abundance; from a sense of one s self as sinful and inferior to a sense of one s self as divine; from a need to achieve and acquire to an awareness that detachment and letting go bring freedom.Your Sacred Self is an inspiring, hopeful, illuminating guide that can help everyone live a happier, richer, more meaningful life.

Without credentials or connections, community college student and advocate Deesha Dyer navigated her imposter syndrome, landing one of the most exclusive positions in the White House. Michelle Obama calls Undiplomatic smart, funny, and endlessly inspirational. From the most unlikely person to end up as a senior official to President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama comes a candid, incredible, and inspiring story. Moved by the election of the country s first Black president, Deesha Dyer applied for a White House internship in 2009 as a thirty-one-year-old part-time community college student, taking a leap that carried her into a permanent full-time position, followed by three promotions landing her at the epicenter of politics.In spite of the little voice in her head telling her she didn t deserve to be there, Deesha thrived and rose to the highly coveted role of White House social secretary, giving her a front-row seat to defining moments in history while curating some of the flyest parties 1600 Pennsylvania has ever seen. Yet, with humor and realness, she peels back the curtain, revealing the hard truth about why she spent years trying to hide behind it. Undiplomatic is a deeply personal narrative about combating self-doubt while being on top of the world. Deesha reflects on how imposter syndrome threatened her self-esteem, proven aptitude, and survival until she realized that it was neither her fault nor her responsibility. In this vivid portrayal from a true around the way girl on the personal impact of the Obama presidency, Deesha shares her road map from imposter to impact. In Undiplomatic, she invites you on a journey of self-discovery where she overcame doubt, unearthed true love for herself, and learned that your unique worth is not something to be earned, but something inherently deserved. Uplifting, funny, and sincere, Deesha s story shows you about authenticity at all costs, and the joy and freedom that awaits on the other side.

Change the way you look at things and the things you look at will change. Wayne DyerFor years Wayne Dyer has been researching the power of intention, the energy that surrounds all of us. He tells us how we can train ourselves to tune into this energy and step beyond our minds and egos. When we do this we become what Dyer calls Connectors and make ourselves available to the energy of success.Connectors are the people whom everyone sees as lucky, the people who get all the breaks. They don t say, With my luck, everything will go wrong, they just know things will go well. They trust an invisible force that will be all-providing and just don t attract negativity to themselves. This book is full of dynamic steps that we can use to tap into this transformational energy.This book explores intention - not as something you do - but as an energy you re part of. We re all intended here through the invisible power of intention. This is the first book to look at intention as a field of energy you can access to begin co-creating your life!

We re not lost, one of his hero s friend s says, we re virtually extinct . It is a small world in Brixton that Dyer commemorates, of council flat and instant wasteland, of living on the dole and the scrounge, of mugging, which is merely begging by force, and of listening to Callas and Coltrane. It is the nostalgia of the DHSS Bohemians, the children of unsocial security, in an urban landscape of debris and wreckage.

Film Andreje Tarkovského Stalker se britskému prozaikovi a esejistovi Geoffu Dyerovi nesmazatelně zapsal do paměti již před třemi desítkami let, kdy jej viděl poprvé. V nové knize nabízí Dyer, autor známý svými žánrově obtížně zařaditelnými texty, svéráznou reflexi tohoto vrcholného díla světové kinematografie, která postupně přerůstá v originální zamyšlení nad obecnějšími otázkami vztahu života a umění. Zóna je výstižnou ukázkou Dyerovy schopnosti objevného pohledu, přesného pozorování a nezaměnitelného autorského hlasu, libujícího si ve střídání poloh, spojování nespojitelného a odbočkách nejrůznějšího druhu. Bezpochyby jde o jednu z nejoriginálnějších a nejhumornějších knih na téma filmu a umění vůbec.

He was born in Cheltenham in the late fifties, the only child of a dinner lady and a planning engineer. Raised in a working-class area, Geoff and his mates found much joy recreating battles with their beloved Tommy guns, kicking a beachball around until its untimely death, and collecting anything and everything they could find; football cards, conkers and Action Man figures. When Geoff passes his 11-plus exams he gets in to a Cheltenham Grammar School, a school which drastically changes the trajectory of his life.
