Books by Bill Butterworth

This book is not about global warming and whether it is taking place or not, how fast it is and what effects it will have. Nor is it about population growth. Nor is it about running out of effective vaccines and antibiotics. Those issues, in isolation, are covered in great depth by many other sources. This book brings the three together, considering the possibility of the triad becoming critical at the same time.Experts disagree on exact dates, but the most likely period this triad will happen to us is some time between 2030 and 2040 if we are lucky, a little earlier if not. If... or when this three-fold tipping point occurs, there will be only a short period before a major collapse in global population, a humanitarian disaster on a scale of unprecedented magnitude.This book is not designed to scare or frighten the reader, but to help them consider the true risk of this upcoming catastrophe. After explaining the triad, it then details a powerful solution available to us with current technology: the Global Bio-Active Carbon Sink.

Life is more like a marathon than a sprint. Here’s how to stay well conditioned.Bill Butterworth will make you laugh–and learn while you’re doing it! In the opening chapter of this powerful little book, Bill shares with you how, while running his rotund body in a nightmarish 440-yard dash, he learned a great lesson:Life is much more like a marathon than a sprint.The attitudes and actions that result in steady success over the long haul are what make for long-term satisfaction and achievement. To experience this for yourself, you need to understand how to deal with life’s inevitable challenges:·The “Hazies”–losing sight of long-term goals·The “Lazies”–lacking the self-discipline to bring life back into focus·The “Crazies”–allowing life to run out of controlEach of these can be conquered by three “clarifying triangles:” setting clear priorities, learning the discipline of endurance, and reaching the finish line through skillful pacing. It all adds up to a succinct and inspiring guide to balancing excellence at work with fulfillment in all of life.Also look for the On-the-Fly-Guide to Building Successful Teams!
