Switch-Hitter

Courting Success: Overcoming Adversity with an Unconventional Swing

CA, UNITED STATES, May 19, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Barnaby Starr who spent his career as a pediatrician after playing tennis at Yale is delighted to launch his first novel called "Switch-Hitter: A Tennis Novel." Sheila emerges as a dual-skilled tennis player in this narrative where she fights through obstacles to fulfill her goal of capturing a prominent tennis championship.

The main character Sheila follows in her father's footsteps becoming a switch-hitter while she learns to play tennis with two working forehands. When the unexpected death of her father forced her to stop playing the sport Sheila found new energy in teaming up with a knowledgeable Bahamian coach who added both skills to her athletic abilities while changing her household dynamics.

Despite addressing societal problems of racism and teenagers giving birth and political tensions the story from Starr brings forth comforting messages that show success happens through unorthodox methods while transcending basic sports stories.

The author Barnaby Starr voiced his vision to create this story after playing competitive tennis and observing firsthand the rollercoaster of competitive sports experiences because he desired to present real athletic situations linked to motivational insights for youth readers. One of the best things about Sheila's story serves as a reminder that both toughness and strenuous effort generate powerful results in life which should influence people to view success differently.

The sports fiction writer Barnaby Starr gained his insight from playing tennis against legends such as John McEnroe while descending from a lineage of writers. The novel draws from his individual life(steps) experiences and career understanding to present profound knowledge about athletic achievements and setbacks.

The book "Switch-Hitter: A Tennis Novel" can be bought through main book retailers and their digital platforms.

About the Author: Barnaby Starr spent his entire career as a Pediatrician, but he learned unique lessons from the sport of tennis. Focus on the immediate present and put the past behind you. Writing "Switch Hitter, a Tennis Novel" also allowed him to merge his enthusiasm for sports with his desire to create an inspiring and uplifting American story.

Wall Street Veteran Bill Haase Debuts Book to Tackle Financial Stress and Overspending

front cover Our Mindset on MOneyBill Haase headshotlogo for Money Mindset"Our Mindset On Money" - new book by Wall Street veteran Bill Haase unpacks the psychology behind overspending— and how to take back control.This book helps you stop living paycheck to paycheck and start making intentional, confident choices with your money—no shame, no jargon, just clarity.”— Bill Haase, author CHICAGO, IL, UNITED STATES, May 22, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- America is drowning in debt, delusion, and denial. In his new book, Our Mindset on Money, launching May 22, 2025, financial advisor and former Wall Street broker Bill Haase delivers a blunt message: If you’re stressed about money, you’re not alone—and you’re not crazy. “Nearly 8 in ten Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. Credit card debt is at a record high. And most people can’t tell you what they spent last month,” says Haase. “The system isn’t just broken—it’s conditioning us to live by default, not design.” The numbers tell the story: • 77–80% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck (PNC, Reddit, Forbes) • U.S. credit card debt hit a record $1.182 trillion in 2024, with average interest rates topping 20% (NY Fed) • Credit card defaults surged 50% in 2024, hitting the highest levels since the 2010 housing crisis (Forbes) • 56% of people have no idea how much they spent last month (Forbes) This isn’t a budgeting book. It’s a mindset reset. Instead of diving into spreadsheets or savings plans, Haase offers something deeper—a guided exploration of how we think, feel, and behave around money. From childhood conditioning to adult financial trauma, he takes readers through the often-ignored psychological patterns that lead so many to live paycheck to paycheck, even as they strive for more. Haase draws from 38 years in finance—from the pits of Chicago to Main Street households—to explore why Americans can’t stop overspending, why silence around money remains pervasive, and how our need to appear “wealthy and wise” is bankrupting us emotionally and financially. Haase shares real stories—his own included—about missteps, rebounds, and the turning points that helped him regain control. With candid insights and practical frameworks, the book helps readers: • Understand the emotional triggers behind spending • Recognize generational patterns that sabotage financial freedom • Shift from living by default to living with financial intent “If spouses aren’t talking about money, they’re not teaching their kids about it either. That silence is generational—and it's costly,” said Haase. “We equate money with intelligence. If you look successful, people assume you’re smart. But most of us are faking it—and the stress is showing.” Our Mindset on Money is available starting May 22, 2025 from Money Mindset Media LLC. ➢ Buy on Amazon: https://a.co/d/esXHe6V ➢ Buy on Barnes & Noble: https://bit.ly/42jLcS6 Praise for Our Mindset on Money “Bill blends passion with practicality. His insights don’t just inform—they transform.” — Dave Nordel, CMSgt, USAF (Ret.), CEO of Vet READY “Bill has handed us a mirror and a roadmap. He challenges how we think, not just what we do, with our money.” — Connor Tyson, ChFC®, Founder of Progress Solutions LLC *** About the Author Bill Haase spent 20 years in the high-stakes trading pits of Chicago, managing transactions for firms like Drexel Burnham Lambert and Nikko Securities. In 2004, he became the first person in the U.S. to execute simultaneous pit and electronic trades. Later, as a financial advisor, he realized most people weren’t struggling with knowledge—they were struggling with awareness. His four-year radio show, Innovative Strategies, logged nearly 1,000 interviews on how to build wealth, run a business, and live with intention. That mission now continues through his podcast and this book. About the Publisher Money Mindset Media LLC is the publishing division of Intent, a leadership and content platform for entrepreneurs and CEOs. Through books, podcasts, and peer engagement, Intent equips leaders with the tools to live intentionally, think critically, and act with clarity—in business, finance, and life.

Negocjacje między UE i USA w sprawie ceł trwają. Przełom możliwy podczas czerwcowej wizyty Trumpa w Europie

Czas, jaki Donald Trump zostawił krajom obłożonym cłami na negocjacje, zbliża się do półmetka. Umowę podpisała Wielka Brytania, ogłoszono również porozumienie z Chinami. Unia Europejska, która jest czwartym partnerem handlowym USA, do niedawna zdawała się nie czynić żadnych postępów w rozmowach. Jednak negocjacje trwają. Zdaniem europosła Michała Szczerby z PO stanowisko Unii powinno być twarde, a przede wszystkim jednomyślne. Okazją do rozmów może być wizyta Trumpa na czerwcowym szczycie NATO w Hadze.

Unijne programy szansą dla polskiego przemysłu zbrojeniowego. Wkrótce uruchomione będzie 150 mld euro na niskooprocentowane pożyczki

Prace nad uruchomieniem instrumentu pożyczkowego SAFE są na ostatniej prostej. Jak poinformował MON, po wielu tygodniach negocjacji został on przyjęty przez stałych przedstawicieli państw członkowskich przy UE. Wdrożenie SAFE oznacza uruchomienie 150 mld euro niskooprocentowanych pożyczek na finansowanie inwestycji państw członkowskich w obronność. Wysiłki krajowe i unijne koncentrują się teraz na zwiększaniu potencjału europejskiego przemysłu obronnego i budowaniu zdolności obrony i odstraszania.

Roboty w służbie środowisku. Ograniczanie ilości odpadów możliwe dzięki automatyzacji

Sztuczna inteligencja i robotyka już dziś pomagają firmom ograniczać swój wpływ na środowisko. Korzyści z inwestycji w zaawansowaną automatyzację odczuwają także konsumenci. Przykładem może być automatyczny system pakowania wdrażany przez Amazon. Robot dostosowujący każdorazowo rozmiar papierowego opakowania do danego produktu pozwolił już zaoszczędzić 3 mln t materiału opakowaniowego, co oznacza dla kupujących mniej materiałów do utylizacji i prostszy recykling.
