As business consultants we do something unique when starting a working relationship with a company. We begin with the business owner. What is their personal mission in life? What are their personal goals? We believe that who we are as people drives who we are in the workplace or who we are as business owners. This book specifically focuses on capturing moments of time and then applying that captured time to something of lasting value. In many cases the time needed to spawn a thought that will change the world is just about the time you wait for your toast to pop out of the toaster! We hope you enjoy the read.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Monstrously Creative Science Fair Summary about this story: In a small town nestled between misty mountains and quiet woods, a beautiful science fair started a change that lasted for generations. Two unexpected guests, Frankenstein's monster, and Dracula, showed up with their own projects. This showed how powerful creation and unity can be. Everyone was amazed by what Victor, the monster, and Dracula came up with. They told the village that being yourself can lead to wonderful findings. Victor made the Astro-Melodi scope because he was interested in how astronomical moves could be turned into music. Dracula showed off the Bat Bot Brigade, a group of fake bats that help pollinate flowers at night. Their shows got people's attention and started a movement that pushed people to be creative and work together. Over time, the town became a hub for new ideas. After seeing the first science show, Lily and Max decided to help young inventors. The outdoor garden, which used to be small, turned into a big place where kids shared ideas, stories, and goals. The town went from being known for its mystery to being known for its mastery. Now, the town is known for its creativity, motivation, and unity. This change was not just about the town. It sent shockwaves all over the world and made people want to follow their dreams with more enthusiasm. Frankenstein's monster and Dracula's legacy have become symbols of how imagination and community can change the world. Institutions changed the way they taught, putting more focus on teamwork and critical thought. Every year, people from all over the world come to a celebration of invention. Once just a simple backyard feature, the beautiful garden is now a place where people come to pray and where children's laughter and heavenly symphony music can be heard. The legacy stressed that great discoveries often come from the most unexpected places and that following one's dreams with an open heart can change one's future. The town's story kept shining brightly, giving future generations something to think about. It was a good lesson that people can change the world if they dare to think differently, want to take unusual paths, and are willing to work with people who have different ideas. The scientific fair that changed the world left behind a memory that shows how beautiful the imagination is and how the human spirit has no limits. How the story started: A small, unremarkable town stood in the middle of a peaceful country, between tall, misty mountains and quiet, whispering woods. Even though this town was small, it had a gem that brought smart young people from all over: a science fair like no other. It wasn't just another meeting of science exhibits and expected experiments. Instead, it was a place where imaginations could run wild and the unexpected was the guest of honor. The people in the area looked forward to this event every year with bated breath, waiting for the day when creativity would take center stage. Young creators, dreamers, and explorers put their whole hearts and minds into their ideas, hoping to surprise, delight, and inspire. This was their chance to show off ideas that came from their wildest dreams and to do something amazing by combining science and art. As soon as the sun came up on the long-awaited day, the town square became a busy place. Booths and displays popped up like flowers after a summer rain, each one a testament to the seemingly endless power of human imagination. There were quiet voices, tinkling laughter, and the sound of paper moving in the air. Even though there were a lot of interesting figures, Frankenstein's monster and Dracula stood out. These two unexpected guests did more than just watch; they started an event that would change the way people think about inventions. Both were shrouded in mystery, bringing to life stories that had scared and fascinated people for ages. The first was Victor, who was created by Dr. Victor Frankenstein and was once scary but is now a figure of kindness and wonder. Victor was tall and stitched together. His scars showed how hard his life had been, but his heartbeat with an intense desire to learn. He had spent weeks working on a secret project that had turned his corner of the circus into a magical place of chemistry. Dracula, the beautiful and mysterious monster from the stories, was the second amazing guest. People knew him as a nighttime person, but behind the darkness was a mind full of scientific curiosity. He worked hard in the lab of his castle to make something that would surprise even people who thought they had seen everything. As the day went on, the people in the town were amazed by the amazing displays, which ranged from small robots to complicated experiments that broke the laws of physics. Victor's and Dracula's shops, on the other hand, were the ones that cast the most interesting spell. Victor presented the "Astro-Melodiscope" with a calm voice and serious eyes. This was a device that showed how celestial bodies moved in time with music. As beautiful music played, people watched the stars and planets dance and shine. The deep velvet shades on Dracula's booth gave it an air of dread. He made a big deal out of introducing the "BatBot Brigade," a group of carefully made fake bats. These insects of the future flew with amazing precision. Each one carried a tiny pod that burst open and released tiny colorful pieces into the air. The crowd gasped in amazement, and the science fair became a place of wonder and new ideas. The judges, who were usually experienced students, looked confused when they realized they were seeing the birth of ideas that were different from what they had expected. Children were amazed and interested as they looked up at Victor and Dracula. The same people who had been in their dreams before were now pushing them to dream bigger and more daring dreams. In a world where anything was possible, like one where a monster and a vampire could live together, it seemed like there were no limits to what could be made. As the sun went down below the horizon and the moon rose, the fair's magic kept working. Victor and Dracula were praised for more than just their inventions. They were also praised for their ability to smash preconceived ideas and spark creativity. So, the small town in the middle of misty mountains and quiet woods left its mark on the history of the world. The science fair had been the spark, and Victor and Dracula had used it as a canvas to paint a vivid reminder that innovation thrived in places where imagination ruled and the unexpected was not only accepted but cherished. When the town's kids got home that night, their hearts were full of ideas and their minds were buzzing with possibilities. They were eager to dream beyond what was normal. In the middle of a beautiful town, tucked between high mountains and quiet woods, lived a creature like no other. Victor, as the few people who knew him called him, was a monument to the strange and surprising. He was a creature with patched-up limbs and a mind as bright as the lightning that had given him life. He was born when science and the supernatural collided. From the moment he was born, Victor was very interested in the world around him. It was the need to understand and deal with the mysteries of life that stood out like the moon in the night sky. Under the intimidating exterior was a heart as big as the mountains that surrounded the town and filled with the warmth of people. Victor's journey of self-discovery was driven by his intense desire to learn. He read books about science, art, and philosophy with the same enthusiasm. His mind was like a complicated clock with many gears. His safe place, a hidden nook in an abandoned tower, became a place where he could get away from the world's criticism and learn about all the different ways people think. As the weeks turned into months, Victor's solo studies took on a meaning that he didn't understand. He made up stories about how he would show the world what he had to offer, something that would go beyond the limits set by others. He thought of an idea that would show how smart he was, a product that would show that he was more than just a strange collection of parts. The walls of the tower showed that Victor was always committed. His shaky but determined calligraphy was on pages of notes spread across tables and tucked into cracks. Diagrams and sketches show how an idea that he worked on with all of his being came to be. Victor worked hard all night long while the rest of the town slept under the watchful eye of the moon. He did this because he thought he could make his own future. Finally, there was a buzz in the air the day before the village's yearly science fair. Victor chose to go into the spotlight to show off his new ideas to a world that had often misunderstood him. By the light of an oil lamp in a dark corner of his tower, he finished his masterpiece, the "Luminafier." With the Luminafier, Victor showed how smart he was and how creative he could be. It was a tool that captured the essence of the world's beauty: the way light dances on leaves, the way stars shine against a soft sky, the way a butterfly's wings shimmer. The Luminafier imitated these miracles by using complex machinery and smart design to project a beautiful dance of light and color on the surfaces around it. As dawn broke on the day of the science fair, Victor's heart raced with both joy and fear. He carefully carried his work to the fairgrounds and put it in a small space. In the morning light, the Luminafier shone like a memorial to the beauty he had seen and the creativity he had used. As the peasants trickled into the fair, the Luminafier's strange show caught their attention. As the amazing dance of light and color happened in front of them, people gasped in amazement. As Victor stood there and watched their shocked faces, his heart filled with joy. But it wasn't just the Luminafier that caught their attention; it was also how someone they used to dislike had changed. People looked past his mended skin and the scars that showed his past. They saw that he had a bright mind, a heart as big as the mountains, and a will as strong as the lightning that had given him life. The Luminafier wasn't just a technical wonder; it was also a symbol of the strength and greatness of the human spirit. Victor had not only made a machine that showed respect for the planet's beauty, but he had also broken down the walls that had kept him hidden. He showed off his creative skills, showing that he was more than just a jumbled-up figure. He was a force to be reckoned with and a warning that genius had no limits. So, in a town between misty mountains and whispering woods, a brilliant mind rose from the depths of confusion and fear to shine as brightly as the Luminafier's luminous show. Victor Frankenstein had shown, through courage, hard work, and a heart that reflected the beauty of the world, that even the most unusual people can bring light to the world through their creativity and promise. Victor's success at the science fair was a turning point not just for him, but for the whole town as well. The Luminafier's show was so interesting that it not only kept people interested, but it also gave them ideas. People at the fair saw the Luminafier as a real example of how magic can come from the most unlikely places—a monument to the power of creativity to change things. As word of Victor's invention spread through the town, people started to see him in a different way. He was no longer the mysterious man who hid in the dark. Instead, he was a shining example of cleverness and creativity. Children with questions would come up to him and ask about the Luminafier or ask for help with their own projects. Victor used to be alone because of how he looked, but now he is surrounded by people who want to learn from him and share his interests.

Download or read book Wedding Toasts I ll Never Give written by Ada Calhoun and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2017-05-16 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seven essays celebrating the beauty of the imperfect marriage. We hear plenty about whether or not to get married, but much less about what it takes to stay married. Clichés around marriage—eternal bliss, domestic harmony, soul mates—leave out the real stuff. After marriage you may still want to sleep with other people. Sometimes your partner will bore the hell out of you. And when stuck paying for your spouse’s mistakes, you might miss being single. In Wedding Toasts I’ll Never Give, Ada Calhoun presents an unflinching but also loving portrait of her own marriage, opening a long-overdue conversation about the institution as it truly is: not the happy ending of a love story or a relic doomed by high divorce rates, but the beginning of a challenging new chapter of which “the first twenty years are the hardest.” Calhoun’s funny, poignant personal essays explore the bedrooms of modern coupledom for a nuanced discussion of infidelity, existential anxiety, and the many other obstacles to staying together. Both realistic and openhearted, Wedding Toasts I’ll Never Give offers a refreshing new way to think about marriage as a brave, tough, creative decision to stay with another person for the rest of your life. “What a burden,” Calhoun calls marriage, “and what a gift.”

This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular American essayist, novelist, and journalist CHARLES DUDLEY WARNER (1829-1900) was renowned for the warmth and intimacy of his writing, which encompassed travelogue, biography and autobiography, fiction, and more, and influenced entire generations of his fellow writers. Here, the prolific writer turned editor for his final grand work, a splendid survey of global literature, classic and modern, and it's not too much to suggest that if his friend and colleague Mark Twain-who stole Warner's quip about how "everybody complains about the weather, but nobody does anything about it"-had assembled this set, it would still be hailed today as one of the great achievements of the book world. Highlights from Volume 39 include: . the poetry of Walt Whitman . the verse of John Greenleaf Whittier . the writings of Woodrow Wilson . the essays of Mary Wollstonecraft . the poetry of William Wordsworth . the writings of Xenophon . the work of Emile Zola . and much, much more.
