Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on a Navy SEAL's inspiring graduation speech, this #1 New York Times bestseller of powerful life lessons "should be read by every leader in America" (Wall Street Journal). If you want to change the world, start off by making your bed. On May 17, 2014, Admiral William H. McRaven addressed the graduating class of the University of Texas at Austin on their Commencement day. Taking inspiration from the university's slogan, "What starts here changes the world," he shared the ten principles he learned during Navy Seal training that helped him overcome challenges not only in his training and long Naval career, but also throughout his life; and he explained how anyone can use these basic lessons to change themselves-and the world-for the better. Admiral McRaven's original speech went viral with over 10 million views. Building on the core tenets laid out in his speech, McRaven now recounts tales from his own life and from those of people he encountered during his military service who dealt with hardship and made tough decisions with determination, compassion, honor, and courage. Told with great humility and optimism, this timeless book provides simple wisdom, practical advice, and words of encouragement that will inspire readers to achieve more, even in life's darkest moments.

Download or read book Changing Me Change the World written by Lynnda Ell and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2010-01-06 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do you pray? Do you think praying is either a fearful mystery or a dry duty? If you want to get past feelings of futility and change your world through prayer, then Changing Me, Change the World is the answer. This book connects Gods Word and your prayers. It will strengthen your faith and instill confidence in you to pray more effectively, molding you into a prayer warrior in the process. "Most people define prayer as communication with God. However, that is like defining a jet fighter as air transportation; it describes neither its purpose nor its function. The purpose of prayer, in the spiritual war we fight daily, is to release Gods will on earth; it functions as a weapon delivery system. The writer of Hebrews says, The word of God is sharper than any two-edged sword. Prayer, the arm of spiritual warfare, wields the sword of the Word. Changing Me, Change the World models these concepts by turning the forty-one chapters in Book One of the Psalms into contemporary and passionate prayers. These prayers look deeply at a variety of topics including confession, joyful praise, healing, the persecuted church, and many others. It solidly connects the Word of God and prayers offered according to Gods will. It will lead another step further in your spiritual maturity. It looks to strengthen your faith and to instill confidence in your ability to pray effectively, molding you into a prayer warrior in the process." You will discover: a deeper, more satisfying prayer life as you meditate on these Psalms and prayers, passionate, engaging language that addresses problems you face in your life every day, prayers you can pray with confidence because they have a solid biblical foundation, a heightened awareness of meaningful issues outside of your daily life, a desire to return to Changing Me, Change the World as new situations arise.

Download or read book Change Me written by Rick L Thomas and published by Counseling Solutions Group, Incorporated. This book was released on 2018-06 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Change Me - The Ultimate Life-Change Handbook will change your life if you let it. It will also improve your relationships-marriage, parenting, small group, the local church, and other community contexts where you are connecting with people. I wrote these chapters with practicality in view. At the end of each chapter is a call to action (CTA) opportunity that will challenge you to do something with what you read. It is best to read this book with someone you can talk to about the content. If you're married, your spouse is the perfect candidate. Perhaps your small group is looking for solid, practical, sanctification content. You have found it. Share this book with your friend. I've divided the chapters into eleven categories: Making the Most of the Journey - Chapters 1 to 2 Your Self-Help Book - Chapters 3 to 4 Discipleship Worldview - Chapters 5 to 6 Personal Struggles - Chapters 7 to 14 The Change Process - Chapters 15 to 17 Helping People Change - Chapters 18 to 22 Communication - Chapters 23 to 25 Marriage and Family - Chapters 26 to 30 Work to Rest - Chapter 31 A Praying Life - Chapter 32 Time to Apply - Chapter 33 to 34 Perhaps you're looking for something on communication. You can skip the first six categories and read the three chapters on communication. Maybe you want to get into the heart of your marriage struggles. Great. You can start with section eight. There are five chapters for you to read. The most effective way to read this book is to understand the whole process of change; thus, starting with the first chapter, "Making the Most of the Journey," is the best place to begin. The categories are set up logically with one building upon the next one. Regardless of where you jump into this book, the key to your transformation will be how often you use the book. Reading it once and moving on to the next thing is not the intended purpose of this book. It will take you years to master this material. Restatement: it will take years for you "to be mastered" by this material. Read it often. Grab a nugget. Let that be your meditation for the day. Share your daily thoughts with a friend. Talk about it. Practice what you read daily. Teach someone what you learned. The teacher always learns more than the student. If you can teach others what you are actively practicing in your relationships, you will be the master of and mastered by this resource. Let this life-transforming journey begin today.

Download or read book Change Me Into Zeus s Daughter written by Barbara Robinette Moss and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2002-01-27 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A haunting and triumphant story of a difficult and keenly felt life, Change Me into Zeus's Daughter is a remarkable literary memoir of resilience, redemption, and growing up in the South. Barbara Robinette Moss was the fourth in a family of eight children raised in the red-clay hills of Alabama. Their wild-eyed, alcoholic father was a charismatic and irrationally proud man who, when sober, captured his children's timid awe, but when (more often) drunk, roused them from bed for severe punishment or bizarre all-night poker games. Their mother was their angel: erudite and stalwart -- her only sin her inability to leave her husband for the sake of the children. Unlike the rest of her family, Barbara bore the scars of this abuse and neglect on the outside as well as the inside. As a result of childhood malnutrition and a complete lack of medical and dental care, the bones in her face grew abnormally ("like a thin pine tree"), and she ended up with what she calls "a twisted, mummy face." Barbara's memoir brings us deep into not only the world of Southern poverty and alcoholic child abuse but also the consciousness of one who is physically frail and awkward, relating how one girl's debilitating sense of her own physical appearance is ultimately saved by her faith in the transformative powers of artistic beauty: painting and writing. From early on and with little encouragement from the world, Barbara embodied the fiery determination to change her fate and achieve a life defined by beauty. At age seven, she announced to the world that she would become an artist -- and so she did. Nightly, she prayed to become attractive, to be changed into "Zeus's daughter," the goddess of beauty, and when her prayers weren't answered, she did it herself, raising the money for years of braces followed by facial surgery. Growing up "so ugly," she felt the family's disgrace all the more acutely, but the result has been a keenly developed appreciation for beauty -- physical and artistic -- the evidence of which can be seen in her writing. Despite the deprivation, the lingering image from this memoir is not of self-pity but of the incredible bond between these eight siblings: the raucous, childish fun they had together, the making-do, and the total devotion to their desperate mother, who absorbed most of the father's blows for them and who plied them with art and poetry in place of balanced meals. Gracefully and intelligently woven in layers of flashback, the persistent strength of Barbara Moss's memoir is itself a testament to the nearly lifesaving appreciation for literature that was her mother's greatest gift to her children.
