Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every great person has an intentional belief system that decides their destiny through the decisions that they make. They choose the path of the kind of life that they want for themselves. Important decisions such as career choices, family values, personal virtues, principles, faith convictions and the choice of friends become defined. Nothing is left to guesswork or to chance.

People who do not make these decisions, though they may be good looking, bright in school or intelligent in life, they do not establish a good legacy or build success for posterity. My Character, My Destiny is a life tool to help become somebody of substance for youself and in society. It is a lesson that a life defined is a life insured! Building good character is one of the surest ways to define, protect and propagate a fruitful life - personally and generationally. For indeed, character is destiny!

Book excerpt: A spellbinding saga of a remarkable american family . . . The beautiful, frail Colette Duvoisin trusted governess Charmaine Ryan with her worries, her dreams, and the care of her beloved children. But now Colette is gone—leaving her three young ones devastated . . . and the house of Duvoisin in turmoil. To her children's horror, their father, the enigmatic Frederic Duvoisin, weds his mistress and sister-in-law, Agatha, soon after their mother's untimely death. A scheming and dangerous adversary, Agatha has no love for her predecessor's offspring, ruthlessly wielding her newly won power while guarding her own dark secrets. Meanwhile, a rivalry between Colette's stepsons—suave Paul and cynical John—is reignited, drawing battle lines among family, friends, and servants. When Frederic suddenly emerges from his self-imposed isolation, he touches off a struggle for patriarchal supremacy that threatens to lay the entire Duvoisin empire to waste. At the center of the storm is innocent Charmaine, who must come to terms with shattering truths about the family she once believed she knew—and decide who among them deserves her admiration, her derision, her devotion . . . and her heart.
Download or read book The Illusion of Will Self and Time written by Jonathan Bricklin and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2015-06-01 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discusses how William James’s work suggests a world without will, self, or time and how research supports this perspective. A Seminary Co-op Notable Book of 2016 William James is often considered a scientist compromised by his advocacy of mysticism and parapsychology. Jonathan Bricklin argues James can also be viewed as a mystic compromised by his commitment to common sense. James wanted to believe in will, self, and time, but his deepest insights suggested otherwise. “Is consciousness already there waiting to be uncovered and is it a veridical revelation of reality?” James asked shortly before his death in 1910. A century after his death, research from neuroscience, physics, psychology, and parapsychology is making the case, both theoretically and experimentally, that answers James’s question in the affirmative. By separating what James passionately wanted to believe, based on common sense, from what his insights and researches led him to believe, Bricklin shows how James himself laid the groundwork for this more challenging view of existence. The non-reality of will, self, and time is consistent with James’s psychology of volition, his epistemology of self, and his belief that Newtonian, objective, even-flowing time does not exist. Jonathan Bricklin is a Program Director at the New York Open Center and the editor of Sciousness.

By examining our dreams against God's Word, we can discover if a dream is part of God's will and our destiny.

Download or read book Shaping Your Destiny written by Itoro Abasiene and published by Author House. This book was released on 2013 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is about how one can utilize the forces of the covenant to fulfill ones destiny. Destiny begins with a dream, vision or purpose. You are created in the image of God, and because God gives dreams you can develop dreams. Whether you call dream for your life "vision, goal or purpose", it does not really matter. You start laying hold of your destiny by dreaming. There are different kinds of dreams. There are dreams given sovereignly by God, such as the one Joseph had. There are also dreams that you have to develop yourself. Your dreams will determine your future and your ultimate destiny. Dreams are the seeds of your future. Where you are today is the result of the dreams you had in the past and where you will be tomorrow is determined by your dream today. "Delight thyself in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart." Psalm 37:4 When the Lord is your delight, He will give you the dreams of your heart. A dream is a divine revelation of the plan and purpose of God for your Life. When you commit your dreams unto God. He will bring it to pass. What dream do you have? Is it a dream of helping people? What about a dream of becoming a missionary in other countries of the world. What about a dream of having a prosperous business that you can travel around and sharing the gospel with people. God wants to give you the desire of your heart, but you have to develop those desires. A desire of the heart is real and life changing. It will influence and help other people. You need to have a dream in order to succeed in life. Without dream you are bound for failure. God wants you to have a positive dream, a positive life and a successful career or ministry. Your dream must be from the word of God. Joseph's destiny was shaped by his dream. I believe your own destiny is being shaped right now as you are getting ready to dream.

Download or read book The Illusion of Choice written by Andrew Bard Schmookler and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is sensitive to those values pertaining to what can be bought and sold but is blind to others - such as the integrity of the natural world and the quality of human relationships - that cannot be turned into commodities. It is impervious to the costs of tearing apart the larger wholes - families, communities, the biosphere - that are vital to the quality of our lives. While these shortcomings are known to mainstream economics, their vital importance has not been recognized because economics takes too static a perspective. Systematic errors wreak damage over time. The Illusion of Choice, by putting our economic lives in a social evolutionary perspective, illuminates the defects of the market ideology that defends the uncontrolled play of market forces. On the basis of that analysis, this work also provides the outlines of a program by which we can make the market system a better instrument of the full range of human values

Book excerpt: Every day of your life, you'll be busy making "choices," and some will affect you for the rest of your life. Tragically, some will also impact others throughout their lives as well. The sum of a lifetime of making personal "choices" will determine the kind of life and the quality of life that you will have literally "chosen" to live. Your "choices" will determine if your life will be like you're driving down a smooth, easy-to-travel, wide open freeway. Or, if your life will take you down a "Road from Hell," filled with devastating potholes and dangerous, off the main road detours! Weighing the consequences of "Choice A" over "Choice B" before you make your decision, is a whole new way of thinking for most young people. Because every "choice" has consequences! The alternative is running the risk of having to endure the bad consequences of impulsive "choices" for a long, long time. Make this new way of thinking your "Blueprint for Success in Life."
