Download or read book The Good Grammar Guide written by Richard Palmer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-09-02 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does grammar bother you? Does it first inspire boredom, then fear? Since the virtual removal of formal grammar teaching from our schools' standard curriculum forty years ago, such negative responses have increasingly characterised students and professionals alike. As this lively and user-friendly book sets out to prove, that is both unfortunate and unnecessary. Not only is grammar an enabling servant rather than a tyrannical set of absolute rules: it can also be fun. This light-hearted guide offers extensive coverage of Parts of Speech, Syntax, Inflection and Punctuation, along with a detailed look at common errors and misconceptions. Regular exercises are included, as is a baleful survey of Political Correct usage, whose desire to sanitize and control the way we speak is injurious to grammar, language itself and indeed the way we live now. The aim throughout this book is to reassure and entertain as well as instruct. This handy volume puts an amusing light on grammar, and as such it is guaranteed to banish boredom and fear. The Good Grammar Guide can also be read as a companion to one of Richard Palmer's other publications, Write in Style 2nd Edition, also published in Routledge's Study Guides series.

Download or read book On the Brink of Everything written by Parker J. Palmer and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2018-06-26 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This impassioned book invites readers to the deep end of life where authentic soul work and human transformation become pressing concerns.” —Publishers Weekly 2019 Independent Publisher Book Awards Gold Medalist in the Aging/Death & Dying Category From bestselling author Parker J. Palmer comes a brave and beautiful book for all who want to age reflectively, seeking new insights and life-giving ways to engage in the world. “Age itself,” he says, “is no excuse to wade in the shallows. It’s a reason to dive deep and take creative risks.” Looking back on eight decades of life—and on his work as a writer, teacher, and activist—Palmer explores what he’s learning about self and world, inviting readers to explore their own experience. In prose and poetry—and three downloadable songs written for the book by the gifted Carrie Newcomer—he meditates on the meanings of life, past, present, and future. With compassion and chutzpah, gravitas and levity, Palmer writes about cultivating a vital inner and outer life, finding meaning in suffering and joy, and forming friendships across the generations that bring new life to young and old alike. “This book is a companion for not merely surviving a fractured world, but embodying—like Parker—the fiercely honest and gracious wholeness that is ours to claim at every stage of life.” —Krista Tippett, New York Times-bestselling author of Becoming Wise “A wondrously rich mix of reality and possibility, comfort and story, helpful counsel and poetry, in the voice of a friend . . . This is a book of immense gratitude, consolation, and praise.” —Naomi Shihab Nye, National Book Award finalist
Download or read book From Suck to Success written by Todd Palmer and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-26 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Behind every successful business is a history of mistakes, failures, and embarrassing moments-some big and some small. Regardless of their size, these failures are essential to learning and to growing professionally and personally. Todd Palmer's failure was big-and the best thing that could have happened to him. When his business nearly went bankrupt in 2006, he began learning the critical steps that would not only rescue his company but also guide him toward becoming a powerful coach for entrepreneurs looking to go from ordinary to extraordinary. Palmer wrote From Suck to Success with the goal of making sure every business owner and corporate leader had simple tools to improve their business and their life. It doesn't matter if you're just starting out or have been in business for decades, the strategies he shares in From Suck to Success can work for you. Whether you are a mid-level leader in a large organization or a C-suite executive, the strategies can help you avoid disaster and achieve higher levels of success. They're designed to strengthen the leader from within, empowered by conviction, confidence, and impact in business and in life. Broken into two simple parts, From Suck to Success is the framework for starting up, building up, or pivoting through change in the pursuit of extraordinary entrepreneurship. In the first part, Palmer does the internal work, helping readers identify and improve their mind-set, leadership, and goal setting, or as he teaches it, intention setting. He shares how discovering your "why," or ikigai, is so pivotal to finding success in both business and personal lives. Palmer then walks readers through the Authentic, Transparent, and Vulnerable (ATV) leadership process and introduces the Extraordinary E-4 Process. The unique E-4 Process allows readers to identify and adjust whenever their mind-set, leadership, or intention setting is veering in the wrong direction. In the second part of From Suck to Success, Palmer focuses on sharing how to improve business operations. This includes building a strong culture and empowering oneself through team members so you can delegate with confidence without sacrificing quality. Success is all about investing in employees, fostering healthy organizations, and creating extraordinary workplaces that allow businesses to thrive. As Palmer writes: "When you live an extraordinary life, you define your own success." "When you live an extraordinary life, you have an iterative attitude to cope with failure." "When you live an extraordinary life, you realize extreme self-actualization." "And you are going to gain each of these by allowing me to help you build a self-fulfilling model of what you really want." A 25-year entrepreneur, business coach, keynote speaker, and author, Palmer has made it his "why" to improve lives by teaching, guiding, and empowering entrepreneurs, CEOs, and leaders on how to go from suck to success and become extraordinary.

Download or read book The Art of Asking written by Amanda Palmer and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2014-11-11 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rock star, crowdfunding pioneer, and TED speaker Amanda Palmer knows all about asking. Performing as a living statue in a wedding dress, she wordlessly asked thousands of passersby for their dollars. When she became a singer, songwriter, and musician, she was not afraid to ask her audience to support her as she surfed the crowd (and slept on their couches while touring). And when she left her record label to strike out on her own, she asked her fans to support her in making an album, leading to the world's most successful music Kickstarter. Even while Amanda is both celebrated and attacked for her fearlessness in asking for help, she finds that there are important things she cannot ask for-as a musician, as a friend, and as a wife. She learns that she isn't alone in this, that so many people are afraid to ask for help, and it paralyzes their lives and relationships. In this groundbreaking book, she explores these barriers in her own life and in the lives of those around her, and discovers the emotional, philosophical, and practical aspects of The Art of Asking. Part manifesto, part revelation, this is the story of an artist struggling with the new rules of exchange in the twenty-first century, both on and off the Internet. The Art of Asking will inspire readers to rethink their own ideas about asking, giving, art, and love.
