Download or read book The Ladies Book of Etiquette and Manual of Politeness written by Florence Hartley and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 1872 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In preparing a book of etiquette for ladies, I would lay down as the first rule, "Do unto others as you would others should do to you." You can never be rude if you bear the rule always in mind, for what lady likes to be treated rudely? True Christian politeness will always be the result of an unselfish regard for the feelings of others, and though you may err in the ceremonious points of etiquette, you will never be impolite. Politeness, founded upon such a rule, becomes the expression, in graceful manner, of social virtues. The spirit of politeness consists in a certain attention to forms and ceremonies, which are meant both to please others and ourselves, and to make others pleased with us; a still clearer definition may be given by saying that politeness is goodness of heart put into daily practice; there can be no _true_ politeness without kindness, purity, singleness of heart, and sensibility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A cross between Carry On, Warrior and Everybody's Got Something, The Other Side of Yet is a powerful memoir about loss, faith, and the power of the human spirit. Starting her professional career as a producer at America's Most Wanted, Michelle Hord was no stranger to tragedy. But when the unimaginable happened in her own family, Michelle's entire life crashed down around her. As she sought out a new blueprint for how to live in this new world, The Book of Job became her anchor, with one verse in particular standing out: "Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him" Job 13:15 King James Version (KJV). For Michelle, the concept of that 'yet' became an essential part of her life--one shaped by loss, yet filled with hope. This powerful memoir takes readers on a journey about creating a life of goodness and grace in the face of loss, injustice, or hardship. Michelle isn't interested in prosecuting her marriage, dwelling on what happened to her daughter, or pointing to God as her only salvation. In the pages of The Other Side of Yet, she invites readers to share not just her story, but to draw inspiration from her strength, her will to create goodness, and her defiant faith"--

Book excerpt: Improve your life immediately and continually with this practical and transformative prompt and guide written by American artist and entrepreneur, KIRU. So often we are told to 'be positive', to 'think good thoughts' or 'say nice things.' These are inherently good statements and ideas, and they're so well known across the world that it's safe to say most people already understand that it is generally important to be positive, grateful, and kind. Herein lies the struggle: Most people believe that they are capable of growing and improving as an individual, yet they struggle to connect with the actual practice of becoming a better person. They search forever to find the tools to help them grow and instead get lost in a raging sea of cute sayings, nice tries and other abstract happiness material. Here comes the good news. The struggle stops here. The Book of Positive Affirmations is the definitive guide for unleashing the power of positive affirmations in your daily life. Organized neatly into three categories of forty affirmations each, this book will lead and support you day by day with affirmations designed to raise awareness on how to effectively love yourself, know yourself and grow yourself. Positive affirmations are unique from listed quotes and random sayings. They are so much more than a simple feel good phrase. When you make the decision to affirm the power of positivity in your life, you are literally maximizing your awareness of the good and minimizing your focus on that which is not.

Putting these affirmations into an order that allows you to ingest and emit positivity day after day is more than an effort to save your life, it's an opportunity to continually improve it.This simplified version includes a guided day count sans illustrations.
