Book excerpt: The inspiring story of the woman at the center of the historic discrimination case that inspired the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Restoration Act, her fight for equal rights in the workplace, and how her determination became a victory for the nation Lilly Ledbetter always knew that she was destined for something more than what she was born into: a house with no running water or electricity in the small town of Possum Trot, Alabama. In 1979, when Lilly applied for her dream job at the Goodyear tire factory, she got the job. She was one of the first women hired at the management level. Nineteen years after her first day at Goodyear, Lilly received an anonymous note revealing that she was making thousands less per year than the men in her position. When she filed a sex-discrimination case against Goodyear, Lilly won--and then heartbreakingly lost on appeal. Over the next eight years, her case made it all the way to the Supreme Court, where she lost again. But Lilly continuted to fight, becoming the namesake of President Barack Obama's first official piece of legislation. Both a deeply inspiring memoir and a powerful call to arms, Grace and Grit is the story of a true American icon.

But only a decade ago, he found himself struggling with his health. The demands of his meteoric career and life on the road had taken a toll. McGraw came to a crossroads where knew that unless he made his physical health a priority, he would put his personal happiness and professional success at risk. In Grit & Grace, McGraw shares his transformation story along with encouragement, inspiration, and real-life, practical advice to help readers become healthy, strong and fit in mind and body. For the first time, McGraw will share the details of the mental and physical routine that got him in the best shape of his life. He suggests that there is no magic formula to getting stronger and healthier: it is about making a commitment to do and be better, and holding yourself accountable each day. McGraw didn’t follow a playbook or have a squad of trainers overseeing his every step. He describes his way of getting into shape as more "maverick"--tuning into a vision of what you personally want to achieve, staying focused, and putting in the work. McGraw says his physical transformation has ignited a whole-life transformation. "My mind is clearer, my sense of purpose is sharper, and my relationships are deeper. Consistent physical exercise helps me bring focus to my life and to the people who mean the most to me." In Grit & Grace, McGraw makes this transformation accessible to anyone, sharing with readers the physical and mental tools they can use to create the life they deserve.

Download or read book Grit and Grace written by and published by . This book was released on 2018-09-21 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life offers an abundance of opposites: cold vs. hot, light vs. dark, left vs. right, summer vs. winter, and let's be honest, summer always wins that one. When it comes to the qualities of grit and grace, I unconsciously spent many years keeping them disconnected, separated in opposing corners of my life. I never thought that grace and grit could coexist, because my intuition was that one would be superior to the other. But the longer I have walked with Jesus, the more I began to see that grit and grace don't actually resist one another, but in fact, desperately need one another. Grit and grace are both superpowers. They are each gifts from God, both sides of the same coin and utterly necessary in our lives. I created this resource to help you further grow and develop into more of the wholehearted person God made you to be. My prayer is that we would celebrate both ingredients that God has marinated deeply into each of our lives and that we would become wild celebrators when we see both grit and grace in one another. So bring on the grit and bring on the grace...We need both.
Download or read book Daring to Fight written by Victoria Mininger and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Daring To Fight, Victoria Mininger shares her painful battle with clinical depression and lays out practical steps for how she fought her way from dark days of lying on the couch to re-engaging in life again. Shame tells those struggling with depression and anxiety they are not good enough. It tells them there is something fundamentally wrong. Well-meaning friends may even whisper that a lack of faith is the cause of these deep-rooted issues—adding another layer to the shame storm for believers. They are pointed to the Bible, left to memorize verses, pray more, and go to church more without any practical guidance for how to tie God’s Word to the day-to-day obstacles that come with these struggles. In this eight-week guidebook, Victoria outlines what it takes to battle depression head-on with grit, grace, and faith from a strong foundation in God’s Word to intentional daily rhythms. So much more than a band-aid for the heart, Daring to Fight shows those struggling with depression and anxiety how to stand on their own two feet and once again fight for their healing and health.
