Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Success is one of those words that has different meanings. More often than not, however we define it, it is misunderstood. If you see a finely dressed person driving an expensive automobile, without knowing anything else about that person, you can’t help but automatically think, “Boy! That’s a successful person!” It could very well be that he is facing bankruptcy. Or her health is failing. Or his personal life is in shambles. Likewise, were you to see a somewhat disheveled person driving a late model automobile, you don’t give them a second thought. At the least, you don’t even notice them; at the worst, you might think them unsuccessful or average. You don’t think that they just might not care about their appearance because they have enough wealth to do whatever they want. Or, even if they aren’t wealthy, they might just very well be happy. Or healthy. Yes, success is difficult to define. It’s on the surface, yet it isn’t. It’s social, yet it’s most certainly personal. It’s something you can touch, yet it’s a frame of mind. One thing is for certain, though: We all want to be successful. Do we want money and the trappings of wealth? Of course. Do we want to be healthy and well? Absolutely. Do we want a loving family? Without a doubt. Do we want to be happy? Affirmative. What you you will find — as some others have found — is that success is a delicate combination of all those things. You need money (or at least a certain amount). You need to have good health. You need family and the love and support that comes with it. And you need happiness — that overall feeling of being content and satisfied. What you will read in this book will set you on a path to attaining all of those. The authors range from business geniuses to doctors to experts. Each has a story to tell and helpful methods to share. Each will address a piece of the puzzle of success—wealth, health, relationships, happiness. From them, you will learn how to go about getting them for yourself. And you must do that — get them for yourself — as no one can do it for you. Sure, people can point in the right direction. They can, at times, even help. But the heavy lifting? Well, that’s on you. Fortunately, you will find, as you read this book, that no heavy lifting is required. Rather, you will discover that the aspects of success are made in your mind: how you think, how you feel, and how you perceive life and everything in it. Success Is Beautiful features a diverse array of notable authors, including Charles F. Haanel, J.F. (Jim) Straw, David R. Portney, Tom Nicoli, Claire McGee, Steven Jae Johnson, Bryan James, Stephen Hewett, Thomas G. Papps, Dr. Maiysha Clairborne, Rudyard Kipling, Anthony Raymond Michalski. By the time you finish this book, you will come to a conclusion. It is a conclusion that has been made by those who have attained success. That conclusion is that success — however you imagine it and whatever it means to you — is Beautiful. Having wealth is Beautiful. Having health is Beautiful. Having good relationships is Beautiful. Having it all is Beautiful. Beauty is a state of mind. It’s in the “eye of the beholder.” And so is success. Read on! Attain your success! Live your life! Or, as we like to say: Read. Succeed. Beautiful.
Download or read book Perfect Me written by Heather Widdows and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-02-25 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How looking beautiful has become a moral imperative in today's worldThe demand to be beautiful is increasingly important in today's visual and virtual culture. Rightly or wrongly, being perfect has become an ethical ideal to live by, and according to which we judge ourselves good or bad, a success or a failure. Perfect Me explores the changing nature of the beauty ideal, showing how it is more dominant, more demanding, and more global than ever before.Heather Widdows argues that our perception of the self is changing. More and more, we locate the self in the body--not just our actual, flawed bodies but our transforming and imagined ones. As this happens, we further embrace the beauty ideal. Nobody is firm enough, thin enough, smooth enough, or buff enough-not without significant effort and cosmetic intervention. And as more demanding practices become the norm, more will be required of us, and the beauty ideal will be harder and harder to resist.If you have ever felt the urge to "make the best of yourself" or worried that you were "letting yourself go," this book explains why. Perfect Me examines how the beauty ideal has come to define how we see ourselves and others and how we structure our daily practices-and how it enthralls us with promises of the good life that are dubious at best. Perfect Me demonstrates that we must first recognize the ethical nature of the beauty ideal if we are ever to address its harms.

Download or read book The Best of Success written by Mac Anderson and published by Sourcebooks, Inc.. This book was released on 2009-12-01 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Success! A magical word indeed, but what exactly is it? A one-time thing, like hitting a home run, scoring a touchdown, or winning a game? Is it a destination? Or a journey? Is there a fixed, clearly marked place called "Success"? Or does it vary from individual to individual? Does success mean achievement, or fame, or power, or wealth? Who decides when one has become "successful"? Can it be self-conferred? Is it, like beauty, in the eye of the beholder? Can we objectively define it? Can two people have nearly identical track records and yet one be seen as successful and the other to have failed? In our research for this book, it became very clear that defining and describing success is no easy task. It is indeed a moving target, as subjective as it is elusive. We hope the quotations about them, and the stories behind each of them, will be a source of inspiration in your journey along the highway to success.

Download or read book Pretty Powerful written by Eboni K. Williams and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Former FOX News host and attorney Eboni K. Williams believes that women shouldn’t hide their beauty. Instead, they should embrace it as a positive and powerful asset. Williams describes how her own career has been positively influenced by making strategic and intentional decisions about her appearance, what works best and when, all while staying true to her own personal style and values. Regardless of the decade, whether they were entering the workforce, seeking a leadership role, or looking to ascend to the C-suite, women (and even men) have always felt the professional need to embody a certain aesthetic appeal and individual personal power. Women, especially, have been sold the lie that being “pretty” comes at the expense of being taken seriously and that being “pretty” and being capable are mutually exclusive. In Pretty Powerful: Appearance, Substance, and Success, Eboni K. Williams encourages readers to reject the knee-jerk reaction to be shamed by this potential advantage and to stop leaving this incredibly powerful asset unused. In each chapter, Williams is joined by other powerful women like Meghan McCain, Marcia Clark, and Desiree Rogers and explores how many others have learned to balance their “prettiness” with substance—to both look the part and express their intelligence in a way that is authentic and respected. While opinions may have differed through time, one fact remains: a personal “pretty” brand is perhaps the most immediate and obvious tool in a woman’s professional arsenal.
