Download or read book Young Sir written by Levi W Harrell and published by Levi Harrell. This book was released on 2018-09-30 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Urban Dictionary says a Young Sir is what cool people call themselves when being modest. I have a different definition. It's the moment you realize you're no longer a boy but not yet a man. It should be the stage of life when you realize that your life has a purpose, but more often, it's a period of confusion. A Young Sir is actually living through a series of very pivotal moments where preparation is needed to shape the character of the man he becomes. The road to being a Young Sir can start in grammar school or college. The young men who travel it should have help along the way. But many, like me, really don't. Instead, they have to learn how to reach manhood by themselves. This book is written to show them how to do so, without becoming the type of childlike adult who knows nothing. We all have struggles. The problem is most of us choose to do it alone. That means there are few guideposts for others who see our success and want to follow. It is my desire that this book will help young men all over the world live lives of character, commitment, and courage." Levi Harrell started life knowing his father didn't want to acknowledge him. "I learned that he and my paternal grandmother demanded a DNA test when I was a one-year-old," he will tell you softly. The proof positive results did nothing to build a father-son relationship and left Levi spending a good portion of his life wondering why his father wouldn't love him. Seeds of self-doubt rooted themselves into Levi because of his father's rejection. Those seeds took years to uproot. Levi destroyed the belief system based on rejection out of his life by creating powerful self-rejuvenation tools. He calls them principles. "I realized that there was really no one to teach me how to be a man, how to be successful or how to grow up," he explains. "So, I looked at the lives of the men I admired and taught myself to copy their best characteristics." What he did worked. Levi is not only a successful entrepreneur but also the founder of an organization that has gone on tour motivating thousands of young people. Levi's presentations are so popular that he began selling them on iTunes. His achievements have earned him an Outstanding Citizen and Goodwill Ambassador award from the Georgia Secretary of State. In 2016 he became an ordained minister.

Download or read book Ultralearning written by Scott Young and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now a Wall Street Journal bestseller. Learn a new talent, stay relevant, reinvent yourself, and adapt to whatever the workplace throws your way. Ultralearning offers nine principles to master hard skills quickly. This is the essential guide to future-proof your career and maximize your competitive advantage through self-education. In these tumultuous times of economic and technological change, staying ahead depends on continual self-education—a lifelong mastery of fresh ideas, subjects, and skills. If you want to accomplish more and stand apart from everyone else, you need to become an ultralearner. The challenge of learning new skills is that you think you already know how best to learn, as you did as a student, so you rerun old routines and old ways of solving problems. To counter that, Ultralearning offers powerful strategies to break you out of those mental ruts and introduces new training methods to help you push through to higher levels of retention. Scott H. Young incorporates the latest research about the most effective learning methods and the stories of other ultralearners like himself—among them Benjamin Franklin, chess grandmaster Judit Polgár, and Nobel laureate physicist Richard Feynman, as well as a host of others, such as little-known modern polymath Nigel Richards, who won the French World Scrabble Championship—without knowing French. Young documents the methods he and others have used to acquire knowledge and shows that, far from being an obscure skill limited to aggressive autodidacts, ultralearning is a powerful tool anyone can use to improve their career, studies, and life. Ultralearning explores this fascinating subculture, shares a proven framework for a successful ultralearning project, and offers insights into how you can organize and exe - cute a plan to learn anything deeply and quickly, without teachers or budget-busting tuition costs. Whether the goal is to be fluent in a language (or ten languages), earn the equivalent of a college degree in a fraction of the time, or master multiple tools to build a product or business from the ground up, the principles in Ultralearning will guide you to success.
Download or read book Profane Challenge and Orthodox Response in Dostoevsky s Crime and Punishment written by Janet G. Tucker and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Profane Challenge and Orthodox Response in Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment presents for the first time an examination of this great novel as a work aimed at winning back “target readers”, young contemporary radicals, from Utilitarianism, nihilism, and Utopian Socialism. Dostoevsky framed the battle in the context of the Orthodox Church and oral tradition versus the West. He relied on knowledge of the Gospels as text received orally, forcing readers to react emotionally, not rationally, and thus undermining the very basis of his opponents’ arguments. Dostoevsky saves Raskol’nikov, underscoring the inadequacy of rational thought and reminding his readers of a heritage discarded at their peril. This volume should be of special interest to secondary and university students, as well as to readers interested in literature, particularly, in Russian literature, and Dostoevsky.
