Download or read book What s Your Life Trying To Teach You written by J. Ian Henderson and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2022-07-19 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life is a school. And to those dedicated to lifetime learning, class is never out. Our short time on planet earth is brimming with opportunities to become our best selves. It doesn’t matter who we are, where we are, or whatever we are doing, we are all subject to essential life lessons; it is a criteria for being a card-carrying member of the human race,” says author J. Ian Henderson. “No one is exempt.” What’s Your Life Trying to Teach You? brings together a blend of storytelling, wit, and wisdom. This self-help guide mines a depth of experts on topics ranging from gratitude to grief and offers practical exercises and quotes from thinkers including Billy Graham and Mark Twain as well as humorists George Carlin and Robin Williams. With more than five decades experience in facilitating personal and professional development workshops, Henderson’s aim is to connect with the world of lifetime learners interested in personal growth as an ongoing adventure. Often, that means breaking out of personal comfort zones and embracing the fact that growth can be messy and even a little uncomfortable. The reward of this lifetime journey is becoming the best versions of ourselves—not perfect, just best—on a daily basis.

Download or read book Live Long And written by William Shatner and published by Thomas Dunne Books. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Star Trek legend and veteran author William Shatner discusses the meaning of life, finding value in work, and living well whatever your age. "I have always felt," William Shatner says early in his newest memoir, that "like the great comedian George Burns, who lived to 100, I couldn’t die as long as I was booked." And Shatner is always booked. Still, a brief health scare in 2016 forced him to take stock. After mulling over the lessons he's learned, the places he's been, and all the miracles and strange occurrences he's witnessed over the course of an enduring career in Hollywood and on the stage, he arrived at one simple rule for living a long and good life: don't die. It's the only one-size-fits-all advice, Shatner argues in Live Long and..:What I Learned Along the Way, because everyone has a unique life—but, to help us all out, he's more than willing to share stories from his unique life. With a combination of pithy humor and thoughtful vulnerability, Shatner lays out his journey from childhood to peak stardom and all the bumps in the road. (Sometimes the literal road, as in the case of his 2,400-mile motorcycle trip across the country with a bike that didn't function.) William Shatner is one of our most beloved entertainers, and he intends never to stop entertaining. His funny, provocative, and poignant reflections offer an unforgettable read about a remarkable man.

Download or read book Living Life As If Thinking Matters written by R. L. Wysong and published by Inquiry Press. This book was released on 2000-09 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living Life as if Thinking Matters Why dissent is crucial to health, happiness, hope, and a better world This is a book about living life better and solving its dilemmas by putting thinking ahead of popular beliefs. We are all born on the starting line of life with blank mental slates. Then each of us has our mind filled in by parents, schools, peers, and experts. The result is a society stuffed with given beliefs, none of which we own, andas you will learn in this bookmost of which are wrong. Although important questions are often debated, there seems to be no satisfying solutions. Instead, shortsighted agendas prevail, money dictates decisions, and ethics seems a thing of the past. We all sense this misdirection and can feel helpless as the world spirals out of control. Since ultimately everything in life happens because of the way we think, solutions depend upon thinking too. That does not mean playing the victim and relying on others, but reaching within to see the sense, goodness, and direction that lie there. Dr. Wysong helps readers tap into their unlimited resources and take control. All of lifes important topics are discussed in this encyclopedic, wise, and helpful book, including: how to achieve optimal health, think correctly about politics, family, love, sex, the environment, economics, government, and social issues, and how to self-improve and cultivate conscience. If you would like to understand life better, be healthier, happier, have meaning, contribute to a better world, and avoid some bumps and bruises along the way, this is your guidebook.

Download or read book Act Your Age A Coming of Middle Age Memoir written by Priscilla Lindsey Biddle and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-06-21 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Act your age! From her mother's admonition in childhood, a middle ages, twice-married mother of four and a product of the deep south of the seventies makes her way though a meandering inner journey towards a quiet epiphany revealing what her mother's words really mean. This rite of passage at the ungainly age of fifty unfolds through twelve memoir-like narratives that will evoke both laughter and tears. Each chapter is an independent reflection on the dozens of daily anecdotes all of us live each day in the course of growing up and growing older. Reading the narratives may be like going through a shoe box of old photographs you find in the attic, not arrange in any seeming order, but, in total, creating a logic of their own. Memorable characters like Papa, Aunt Norma, Harrison Augustus Turnbull, and Artemesia rise from the narrator's southern Gothic roots. The narrator, nameless Every Woman, prides herself in being an introspective and competent adult, but her naiveté demonstrates that being an adult a really a state of mind, and finding truth is like entertaining company with chipped china. Coping with life's poignant struggles, like disease, old age, suicide, and murder, and its ordinary ones, like child-raising, teaching, pets, and church-going, she seeks sense in the nonsense with humor and with love"--Page 4 of cover.

Download or read book You Don t Have to Act Your Age written by Win McFadden and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2001-01-31 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Win McFadden, now in his nineties, is an international senior track and field star who still participates in U.S. Masters and Senior Olympics competition. In You Dont Have to Act Your Age, he has written a book with a radical mission: to convince the many millions of people over the age of 65 that the remaining years of their lives can be healthy, joyful ones. He poses the following questions: Suppose that in our effort to be as healthy as we could possibly be, we engaged in a pursuit that also let us have funand that while having fun we became totally absorbed and therefore willingly disciplined in our efforts? Suppose further that because of our dedication and discipline, we were eventually rewarded by public recognition and tangible rewards? What if as our days sped by in this happy, rewarding, and disciplined existence, we also met large numbers of friends who were similarly healthy, dedicated, and interesting? And suppose that through the friends we made and the recognition we received we became able to be of service to other older people who needed help in bringing themselves to a condition of greater health and fitnessand therefore happiness. That would be true satisfaction of the highest order. He claims that his positive answers to these questions have been the result of his participating in Masters athletics and teaching physical fitness classes for older adults. In this second edition of You Dont Have to Act Your Age, McFadden has added tips for seniors on how to choose an exercise class that meets their needs, as well as advice for younger relatives of seniors who now live in convalescent facilities on how to encourage their loved ones to remain as physically fit as possible.
