Download or read book How to Take No for an Answer and Still Succeed written by Tom Justin and published by Command Communications, Inc.. This book was released on 2006-09-27 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The winners in life are usually those who have accumulated the most "NOs". Salespeople, actors and writers know rejection well. Reaction to rejection is a learning tool as well as barometer of passion for the true intention of those who strive to higher levels of achievement. It can also be an invisible success killer. It's like a virus, which doesn't announce its presence until the patient is almost dead. The success killer for most people is their unknown sub-conscious fear of being rejected. We can all recall that time when we felt publicly humiliated, that time when our failure was there for the world, and worse, for those close to us, to see. Doing little or nothing, keeping your head down, not rising to any occasion that has a potential for public failure is the hidden and insidious success killer. The realization of this unknown fear can actually propel some people to begin to overcome these fears immediately. This book shows the reader through technique and inspiration how to rise above mediocre circumstances to levels of personal power not realized before. Author, Tom Justin gave the same titled seminar for over 15 years before he wrote the book. But unlike his seminar, the book is filled with how-tos and inspiration. Here is just some of what is featured in this treasure trove: *How you can become a master problem solver using this technique * How you can move through any rejection or disappointment quickly and easily * 5 Danger signs that can keep you in stress and failure AND how to avoid them * How to take total and complete control of your life - seriously! You'll be surprised to see what real control really means * 3 Ways you can increase your ratio of positive results through all rejections *"Energy is the currency of the universe." Learn how to tap into your own personal energy bank account ...and much more. Jack Canfield, co-author of the Chicken Soup For The Soul series said of this book: "If rejection is like a disease, creeping up, then overcoming us and stopping us cold, then Tom Justin is the 'Jonas Salk' of rejection. His How To Take NO For An Answer And Still Succeed program is the perfect vaccine for every kind of rejection life can throw at us." Most of all this book will prove to you that failure isn't the problem, quitting is.

Download or read book Euthanasia is Not the Answer written by David Cundiff and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instances of euthanasia or mercy killing date back to antiquity. However, it is only recently that the unprecedented grassroots efforts to legalize euthana sia have begun building. "Terminal Illness, Assistance with Dying," a California ballot initiative for the No vember 1992 election, might for the first time in modem history legalize euthanasia and assisted suicide by physicians. Similar initiatives are planned in other states. To vote intelligently, citizens in California and throughout the United States need to learn who is likely to request euthanasia or assisted suicide, and why. How we care for the terminally ill eventually af fects us all. In over half of all deaths, a chronic dis ease process such as cancer or congestive heart failure leads to a terminal phase that may last for days, weeks, or months. Most people are more afraid of the suffering associated with this terminal phase than they are afraid of dying itself. When polled, most Americans tell us they would prefer to die at home, surrounded by loved ones, rather than in a hospital receiving high-tech tests and treatments until the last. Yet the majority of people, even those with term inal illnesses, die in the hospital. What factors in our culture and health care system have led to this dichotomy? Unrelieved suffering is also the primary reason for euthanasia requests.
