Set in the late 19th century, the book provides a glimpse into the social and economic landscape of the time, showcasing themes of ambition, self-reliance, and the American dream.

As a champion of the 'self-made man' ideal, Alger's work reflects his belief in the opportunities available to those who are willing to work hard and stay true to their principles. I highly recommend 'Shifting For Himself; or, Gilbert Greyson's Fortunes' to readers interested in classic literature, coming-of-age stories, and tales of perseverance.

Download or read book Shifting into High Gear written by Kyle Bryant and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2019-02-26 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shifting Into High Gear charts the course of Kyle Bryant's transformation as he journeys on a recumbent tricycle across the United States in the throes of Friedreich's ataxia, a life-shortening and disabling disease. Full of humor and reflection, it's a heroic journey of a man driven to reframe the language of disease through action and service. As you travel with Kyle during two cross-country bike rides through the American West, Texas, the Southern States, and finally to the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, the grueling rides become a compelling backdrop for a series of lessons and ruminations which embrace an alternative worldview and provide practical solutions to everyday problems. A thrilling adventure story, yes, Shifting Into High Gear is also ultimately about helping readers reinterpret the conditions of their lives and learning how positive thinking, purposeful connection, and deliberate actions can help anyone reach beyond their limits and live a bolder and bigger life no matter what the circumstance. Deeply passionate and compassionate, Kyle uses his amazing story to teach readers how to replace the handicapping language of "disability" with the agency to build a thriving and hopeful life. He bravely exposes the shadow-side of using disabling language and asks us to commit to a collective goal of understanding disease and its emotional impact and embrace the disabled population as equal individuals. In telling his story, Kyle's desire is that instead of viewing disease as a deficit, we would see it as another state of being—simply as a life which strikes out on a different path.

Book excerpt: The #1 New York Times best-selling author of Excuses Begone! The Shift—the book inspired by the movie of the same name—illustrates how and why to make the move from ambition to meaning. Download The Shift and allow these lessons to guide you down a more authentic and rewarding path today. As we contemplate leaving the morning of our life, where ego has played a commanding role, and entering the afternoon (and evening), where meaning and purpose replace ambition and struggle, we may encounter unexpected occurrences that accompany this new direction. It’s almost a universal law that we’ll experience a fall of some kind. Yet these falls or low points provide the energy we need to move away from ego and into a life of meaning and purpose. The Shift doesn’t mean that we lose our drive and ambition; it signifies that we become ambitious about something new. We make a commitment to living a life based on experiencing meaning and feeling purposeful, rather than a life based on never-ending demands and false promises that are the trademark of the ego’s agenda.
