Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. A practical philosophical manual for men rebuilding purpose in the second half of life.Many men reach midlife or later life having fulfilled duties, survived losses, built careers, raised children, endured disappointment, and carried burdens few people fully saw. Then, often after divorce, illness, professional change, romantic failure, or the quiet collapse of old ambitions, a harder question appears: What now?Disciplined Freedom offers a clear six-pillar framework for answering that question with strength and honesty.The six pillars are: Body - protect the instrument of freedom.Mastery - preserve excellence and earned competence.Creation - make durable evidence of the inner life.Legacy - transmit what matters.Expansion - refuse to shrink.Love - give love without surrendering command of the self.This is not a cheerful "reinvent yourself" book, nor a confessional memoir. It is a concise manual for men who know that youth is gone, but life is not over; that loss is real, but surrender is optional; and that freedom without discipline becomes drift.Drawing on practical insights from Stoicism, classical virtue, ordered love, Jungian depth psychology, and meaning-centered thought, Disciplined Freedom gives readers a structure for living with clarity after the old sources of purpose no longer hold.For men in the second half of life, the task is not to deny loss. The task is to keep command, refuse diminishment, and build beyond loss. This item is printed on demand.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Born in Jasionka, Galicia, in 1860, Jakób Wróbel grew up beneath a sky crowded with stars. His fascination with astronomy became one thread in a life shaped by learning, faith, and an increasingly demanding sense of vocation.After studying in Jaslo and Kraków and entering the seminary in Przemysl, Jakób became a priest, teacher, and advocate for the dignity of ordinary families. His path eventually led across the Atlantic to Paraná, Brazil, where Polish immigrants had settled amid forests, difficult roads, uncertain institutions, and deep cultural tensions.In Água Branca, Father Jakób helped complete a chapel, build a school, establish a cemetery, protect communal land, and strengthen a scattered Catholic community. He confronted drunkenness, superstition, political hostility, internal division, and the dangers that arise when faith, identity, and power become entangled.After nearly eighteen years in Brazil, he left for the United States and began again among Polish immigrant families in the coal towns of western Pennsylvania. There, he reopened schools, taught children, supported struggling households, and continued the quiet work of service until his death on Easter Sunday in 1935.The Star of Jakób Wróbel is a historical novel inspired by the life of a Polish priest whose journey crossed Poland, Brazil, and the United States. It is a story of education, migration, spiritual endurance, and the long influence of a life given to others.This bilingual edition presents the English and Polish texts together, paragraph by paragraph.…
