Download or read book Growing Stronger written by Silviya Mayasari and published by Penerbit Andi. This book was released on with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is divided into two parts according to the students’ current interests: the coming-of-age story and horror/ thriller story. The fi rst part contains stories inspired by Bildungsroman, or novel of development, whereas the second part channels the students’ interest in horror stories, and showcases their early attempt at writing a Gothic fi ction. Bildungsroman is a literary genre focusing on the psychological and moral growth of the protagonist. In this genre, the protagonist experiences an epiphany, or a sudden realization that changed their view of themselves or the social norms around them. Much lauded Western Bildungsroman are James Joyce’s Dubliners and A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, and the lesser-known John McGahern’s The Dark, where each of the protagonists liberates themselves from religious and familial bonds.

Download or read book Rising Strong written by Brené Brown and published by Random House. This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • When we deny our stories, they define us. When we own our stories, we get to write the ending. Don’t miss the five-part HBO Max docuseries Brené Brown: Atlas of the Heart! Social scientist Brené Brown has ignited a global conversation on courage, vulnerability, shame, and worthiness. Her pioneering work uncovered a profound truth: Vulnerability—the willingness to show up and be seen with no guarantee of outcome—is the only path to more love, belonging, creativity, and joy. But living a brave life is not always easy: We are, inevitably, going to stumble and fall. It is the rise from falling that Brown takes as her subject in Rising Strong. As a grounded theory researcher, Brown has listened as a range of people—from leaders in Fortune 500 companies and the military to artists, couples in long-term relationships, teachers, and parents—shared their stories of being brave, falling, and getting back up. She asked herself, What do these people with strong and loving relationships, leaders nurturing creativity, artists pushing innovation, and clergy walking with people through faith and mystery have in common? The answer was clear: They recognize the power of emotion and they’re not afraid to lean in to discomfort. Walking into our stories of hurt can feel dangerous. But the process of regaining our footing in the midst of struggle is where our courage is tested and our values are forged. Our stories of struggle can be big ones, like the loss of a job or the end of a relationship, or smaller ones, like a conflict with a friend or colleague. Regardless of magnitude or circumstance, the rising strong process is the same: We reckon with our emotions and get curious about what we’re feeling; we rumble with our stories until we get to a place of truth; and we live this process, every day, until it becomes a practice and creates nothing short of a revolution in our lives. Rising strong after a fall is how we cultivate wholeheartedness. It’s the process, Brown writes, that teaches us the most about who we are. ONE OF GREATER GOOD’S FAVORITE BOOKS OF THE YEAR “[Brené Brown’s] research and work have given us a new vocabulary, a way to talk with each other about the ideas and feelings and fears we’ve all had but haven’t quite known how to articulate. . . . Brené empowers us each to be a little more courageous.”—The Huffington Post

Book excerpt: When we find ourselves lacking the power to achieve our goals, it's time to evaluate our training. Are we training enough? Have we forgotten why we train? Have we lost the motivation to train due to success? Or, have we lost our motivation due to failure? Jesus reminds his disciples a lack of training is a lack of faith. When we stop praying, we have stopped believing in the power of God. And, when we stop believing in God's power we are attempting to take over. In order to "train for godliness" we must keep our goal in front of us at all times. This will focus our attention on the only One who can get us to God. He is our motivation and the reason we keep training. If you desire to grow STRONGER in your faith and walk with God, listen to the exhortation of the Apostle Peter as he shares key attributes of a godly life.
