Download or read book In Your Moment written by Dr. Douglas Lindsay and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2024-02-26 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Join Dr. Douglas Lindsay and Dr. Joseph Balskus as they strategically and methodically unfold the very temporal framework of a single moment and the consequences of that one moment. This compelling book hits and penetrates the heart, specifically asking how you choose to live your time and the moments that make up your time, how you show up to your moments, and how you prepare for your moments. Lindsay and Balskus introduce their own Tempus Model, which is a breakthrough, practical model for human behavior that occurs within a moment. As they unfold and dissect their Tempus Model, you will be compelled to evaluate the notion of time, within your moments. To supplement your appetite for understanding you and your moments, they present examples of those who made tremendous decisions that had favorable consequences and those who failed to maximize the moments they had, by choices they made (or didn’t make). They will wind through the entire decision process within the moment and also evaluate why some people successfully navigate moments, while others seem to have moments and consequences they regret. Each component of the model will offer a glimpse into yourself as a person, a spouse, a father, a mother, an employee, a leader. These questions, along with others found in each chapter offer time for reflection on your moments, and the pre and post-moment checklists will provide a tremendous resource for leadership growth. You will read and feel how precious and special our moments are by reading of the author’s personal stories of moments they have had to face in their own lives, including the story of one who experienced an unexpected moment. A moment no one ever wants to face but may encounter. Someone who had a promising life cut short yet, while they lived, capitalized on purposefully and effectively living each moment they had remaining. Don’t miss this reading and learning experience. Time is the single common commodity that transcends culture, occupation, societies, career choice, and so many other things. It is one incident that everyone on earth possesses. Thankfully, we get to choose what we do with it. Since we don’t directly control the amount of time we have, we are left to have significance in the moments that we do have. Start now by examining your moments, learn how to better prepare for those moments, and grow from empowering techniques to enact behaviors that are consistent with how you want to be as a person and as a leader. Lindsay and Balskus are already making an impact with their breakthrough Tempus Model by successfully presenting workshops and seminars that captivate and challenge their audiences. They believe that no one is ever off the developmental journey as a leader. Their research is compelling and this book was written to pause, document, capture, and share a unique and special perspective to help you on your journey as leaders and individuals. Join them as they joyfully and brilliantly share a perspective that their odyssey through leader development has revealed to them, IN THIS MOMENT.

Download or read book The White Piano written by Uvi Poznansky and published by Uvi Poznansky. This book was released on 2015-08-27 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coming back to his childhood home after years of absence, Ben is unprepared for the secret, which is now revealed to him: his mother, Natasha, who used to be a brilliant pianist, is losing herself to mysterious disease, which turns the way her mind works into a riddle. His father’s new wife, Anita, looks remarkably similar to her—only much younger. Feeling isolated, being apart from love, how will Ben react to these marital affairs, when it is so tempting to resort to blame and guilt? “In our family, forgiveness is something you pray for, something you yearn to receive—but so seldom do you give it to others.” Behind his father's back, Ben and Anita find themselves increasingly drawn to each other. They take turns using an old tape recorder to express their most intimate thoughts, not realizing at first that their voices—his eloquent speech, her slang—are being caught by his father. What emerges in this family is a struggle, a desperate, daring struggle to find a path out of conflicts, out of isolation, from guilt to forgiveness. Dealing with the challenging prospects of the marriage of opposites, this book can be read as a standalone novel as well as part of one of family sagas best sellers. Still Life with Memories is a family saga series tinged with family saga romance, fraught with marital issues, and riddled with the difficulty of connecting fathers and sons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over a hundred years after the Mahabharata War, an ancient power threatens to destroy the new Age of Men, by establishing the Age of Terror of the asuras, long believed to be extinct. The only hurdle in its path is Guru Dronacharya’s son, the mighty but accursed warrior Ashwatthama, who lost all his powers following Lord Krishna’s curse, and who unwittingly finds himself drawn into the quest of the lost bow of Lord Rama—the Kodanda. As ghosts of the distant past return to haunt him, and the line between friends and enemies blurs, Ashwatthama must fight his inner demons to emerge victorious. He undertakes a perilous journey—across the vast plains of the Ganges, to the snow-capped peaks of the Himavant—where the price of failure is a fate worse than death, and death is a privilege not granted to Ashwatthama. Is this all part of Lord Krishna’s great plan? Will Ashwatthama be able to regain his lost glory?

We all hear this question everywhere, but author Scott Rankin invites us all to slow down for a moment and ask a different question... What does God want for Christmas? Our Lord desires that we become more Christ-like every day (1 Corinthians 11:1). To accomplish this goal, He tells us to renew our minds (Romans 12:2).

Download or read book What Have You Done With Your Moment written by Richard Bootle and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-12-28 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A person can have one traumatic experience in life, and that experience can determine the course of the rest of his or her life. One experience gave the author the idea for this manuscript. When the author saw people demonstrating at the Michigan State Capitol during the pandemic when the governor ordered lockdowns, that is when he asked the question, "Is this what they will be telling their grandchildren and great-grandchildren thirty or forty years from now?" Is this what they did with that moment in time? Then he looked at famous people who went on long before us, and he asked them what they have done with their moment. Some great entertainers, some great sporting figures, some great African American inventors, and current famous politicians. Then he concluded that our lives are filled with moments. This author concludes that your moment is your life. However, you don't go up to someone and ask them what they have done with their life because people might not be satisfied with how their life turned out. This question causes them to rationalize. Ask them what they have done with their moment, and they will talk to you all day.

It is then that he discovers a family secret. How will they find a path out of conflicts, out of isolation, from guilt to forgiveness? My Own Voice (“As told by Anita”): Ten years ago, Anita started an affair with Lenny, in spite of knowing that he was married and that his wife was succumbing to a mysterious disease. Now married to him and carrying his child, how can she compete with Natasha’s shadow and with her brilliance in the past? Given Anita's lack of education, how can she resist his compelling wish to transform her? Can she survive his kind of love? Faced with the way he writes her as a character in his book, how can Anita find a voice of her own? And when his estranged son, Ben, comes back and lives in the same small apartment, can she keep the balance between the two men, whose desire for her is marred by guilt and blame? The White Piano (“As told by Ben”): Coming back to his childhood home after years of absence, Ben is unprepared for the secret, which is now revealed to him: his mother, Natasha, who used to be a brilliant pianist, is losing herself to early-onset Alzheimer’s, which turns the way her mind works into a riddle.

Download or read book A Story Larger than My Own written by Janet Burroway and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2014-02-07 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1955, Maxine Kumin submitted a poem to the Saturday Evening Post. “Lines on a Half-Painted House” made it into the magazine—but not before Kumin was asked to produce, via her husband’s employer, verification that the poem was her original work. Kumin, who went on to win the Pulitzer Prize for poetry, was part of a groundbreaking generation of women writers who came of age during the midcentury feminist movement. By challenging the status quo and ultimately finding success for themselves, they paved the way for future generations of writers. In A Story Larger than My Own, Janet Burroway brings together Kumin, Julia Alvarez, Jane Smiley, Erica Jong, and fifteen other accomplished women of this generation to reflect on their writing lives. The essays and poems featured in this collection illustrate that even writers who achieve critical and commercial success experience a familiar pattern of highs and lows over the course of their careers. Along with success comes the pressure to sustain it, as well as a constant search for subject matter, all too frequent crises of confidence, the challenges of a changing publishing scene, and the difficulty of combining writing with the ordinary stuff of life—family, marriage, jobs. The contributors, all now over the age of sixty, also confront the effects of aging, with its paradoxical duality of new limitations and newfound freedom. Taken together, these stories offer advice from experience to writers at all stages of their careers and serve as a collective memoir of a truly remarkable generation of women.

Download or read book The Pavlac Legacy written by Herman Edel and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2009-07-22 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pavlac Legacy is an adventure based on the true facts of a journey that reaches out to the people of Prague, Berlin, London, New York, Boston, Washington, Cincinnati, and finally, those of Aspen, Colorado. In 1865, a Torah is created by a poor scribe and his young son. It is done at the behest of a fellow countryman, the very wealthy and important Prague resident, David Pavlac. This great gift first binds the two families and then, through the years, involves people of many religious persuasions, people of royalty, people of great wealth, and the poorest of people. Young loves blossom, and later, old loves provide the needed strength to keep moving forward. Wars and hatred and death slowly, but relentlessly, change the lives of all in an ever growing circle of people. Tears vie with laughter as each new adversity unfolds. The ability to rise and fight, finds few with the courage to stand and battle. But others, be they young or old, emerge who accept the challenge. The 1865 creation finds its ultimate home in the mountains of Aspen, and with that, comes survival and a sense of future hope.
