The growth mindset, described by Carol Dweck, is the biggest performance enhancer there is. Will a growth mindset guarantee success? No. There are too many other factors involved. But without it will success be all but impossible? More than likely. And success in anything is difficult enough as it is. This mini-book will describe the mindset, how to use it as an athlete, as a coach and as a parent/guardian. The impact of mindset, and the simple language or semantics we use for praise, have an incredibly profound effect on sports development. As a general rule of thumb, kids who develop a growth mindset have more chance of being successful in the long term, both in sports and in life, than those with a fixed mindset.

The email pinged again. The attachment was a picture of the door to her flat. She reeled. Clasping her hand to her mouth as she retched again. "It was never about the money, Rachel. It was always about you. I could use someone with your skills. I'll be in touch. I know where you live. D.E.M." No good turn goes unpunished! When Rachel is spurred to use her computing skills to find an abducted boy, she has no idea that it will bring her to the attention of an anonymous vigilante. Is the vigilante what he seems and what does he want with Rachel? Rachel is coerced by the mysterious D.E.M. to carry out hacking on seemingly innocuous companies, helped by her friends Deborah, Cam and Cam's ill-tempered boss, Dave. As she gets drawn deeper into their world, she tries to find out more, only to put herself and her friends in grave danger. When she finally realises that the mysterious D.E.M. isn't a vigilante at all, Rachel is in a race against time to save her friends and prevent an escalation in the war between Israel and Palestine.

Rachel, Cam, Deborah and Dave are on the run. They are being hunted by person or persons unknown but they do know they are in grave danger. When they are eventually tracked down, they are offered a stark choice. Execution or a mission. Their freedom in return for a task. Quid Pro Quo There really is no choice for the team, but when their individual histories start to rise from the darkness, the danger is beyond what any of them could have imagined.

Athens 438 BC "So the gods have seen fit to give you to me," said Zosimos. "I thought they must be smiling on you after Samos, but it seems they were just playing a cruel trick on you. That fool Pericles might have taken a shine to you, but he can't protect you here. You're mine now." Alexander has survived the Siege of Samos and been sent to a military academy as a cadet. The battles with the Athenian army are nothing to what he faces in the Academy. With his life in danger from all sides, Alexander must draw on everything he has learned just to survive, but is survival enough? It isn't long before the fight back starts, against every cadet, the trainers and the head of the Academy. Can he be the last man standing?

He was known as Eidolon - in Ancient Greek literature the name means an apparition, phantom, ghost. It is the name given to the world's most feared assassin. No-one knows who he is, where he comes from, what he looks like or even how to contact him. Until now. John King has lived in the shadows for a decade. No-one can find him because he has no history. Not one that could be traced anyway. He was just a normal person who chose the life he led. No government or military background to discover. He chose his own targets and always staying off the radar. He was a nobody that had a very unique skill set. That's why he became known as Eidolon. He was a nobody. But all that has now changed. Someone wants Eidolon dead. The truth was that many people want him dead, but someone has found him and now the hunter has become the hunted. Suddenly, the loner is no longer alone. He has to rely on others for help. He has a woman he is now responsible for and feelings for her threaten his impenetrable barriers. He's left reeling by the changes. He's no longer in control and everywhere he goes someone is out to kill him to claim the $10million ransom that's now on his head. There is only one thing he can do. Take back control and become the hunter again......

Athens 440BC Alexander decided that there was no-one around and started to move from under the ramp but, before he could make his escape, he felt the ship rock as a loud tramping came from the gangplank. He froze in position while he tried to work out what this new sound meant. After listening for a short time, he realised that the troops were boarding the ship. He needed to get away, so he dragged himself fully out from his hiding place and made his way to the ramp. Maybe he could just run past them all before they realised he was there. Then, to his horror, the ramp down into the hold started shaking and the tramping came closer as the soldiers started coming down it into the hold to shelter from the sun. He was trapped! All Alexander wants to be is an Olympian. But, when his hoplite father is recalled to war, Alexander tries to follow and becomes trapped aboard a troop ship. His life spins out of control when they make port. The seemingly benign state of Samos overthrows the mighty Athenian army and tragedy strikes. He soon realises that the foes in his own camp are more dangerous than the Samian rebels. When one of his only friends and allies on the island goes missing, Alexander has to further endanger his own life to try and find him but by doing so he puts his friend's life, and his mother back in Athens, in danger.
