But however easy it may be found to make money, I have no doubt many of my hearers will agree it is the most difficult thing in the world to keep it. The road to wealth is, as Dr. Franklin truly says, "as plain as the road to the mill." It consists simply in expending less than we earn; that seems to be a very simple problem." PT Barnum

Download or read book The Art of Getting Over written by Stephen Powers and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2014-03-18 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What started as simple street movement, a way to assert individuality and pride, has blossomed into much more: Graffiti is everywhere. From Sprite commercials to The Source magazine to Soho art galleries, the elements and vernacular of the graffiti aesthetic are apparent in today's society. The Art of Getting Over: Graffiti at the Millennium examines graffiti's influence from its earliest days to its undeniable ubiquity now. Written by insider Stephen Powers, it includes a general history, in-depth interviews with both the progenitors of the form and current artists, and full-color illustrations of the most important works over the last 30 years. Unlike other subcultures that have been corrupted by the media and the mainstream, graffiti has maintained its sense of the underground and its clandestine feel. The purity and integrity that have defined the graffiti writer's mission have never faltered. The Art of Getting Over offers an unprecedented glimpse into this deeply affecting urban art form.

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 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FOREWORD BY BRENE BROWN and POSTSCRIPT FROM BRAIN PICKINGS CREATOR MARIA POPOVA 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.

Download or read book The Art of Becoming written by Dana Hutton and published by Aletheia Press Publishing. This book was released on 2019-07-19 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A misunderstood, eighteenth century poet, a twentieth century homeless girl, weird maths, imaginary dragons and a hidden Paris - it all comes together in this remarkable book about how we create lasting fulfillment and flourish." --Dee Reinert, Editor Have you ever felt that life goes on, circumstances and people change, good things show up, and yet something is still missing? The Portuguese have a word for that; they call it saudade. Saudade describes a feeling of melancholy or nostalgia for something that hasn't even happened yet. It's the strange sensation that something is lacking in your life but you're not sure what the elusive, missing piece is. You're just not quite fulfilled. As a teenager, Dana Hutton ran away from home to escape the oppression of fundamentalist religion and a toxic, sometimes abusive home life. Passing through a period of homelessness, poverty, and violence drove her within herself and set her at odds with the world. When she experienced a moment of unexpected transcendent awareness at the tender age of eighteen, her perception of life and Self was permanently altered by something that she didn't yet understand or know how to fully integrate. The choices of her youth set her on a path that led her across the Atlantic and around the world on a quest for truth, Self, and the key to human fulfillment. She found that key and now shares her journey and insights with others in this unique book. This book explores the Art of Becoming: our inherent ability to awaken and transform, and our need, both individually and collectively, to find a deep, abiding sense of fulfillment in the world. Fulfillment and flourishing are part of the Great Work. If you feel that fulfillment is lacking in your life, or if you're still looking for meaning, purpose, and inner peace, this book is for you. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Dana Hutton is a trilingual author, artist, professional trainer, ontological coach and consultant who has traveled much of the world and has lived in several countries. She specializes in human-systems and organizational design for organizations that are committed to putting people before profit and creating a People-First culture. "Mrs. Hutton writes from the heart and with great clarity about her journey and the human condition at large. She shares a timeless message: we are all in this together, all pain can be transmuted, and we can create a world in which humans flourish, thrive, and love.

Download or read book The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F ck written by Mark Manson and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 New York Times Bestseller Over 10 million copies sold In this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger cuts through the crap to show us how to stop trying to be "positive" all the time so that we can truly become better, happier people. For decades, we’ve been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F**k positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let’s be honest, shit is f**ked and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn’t sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is—a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is his antidote to the coddling, let’s-all-feel-good mindset that has infected American society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up. Manson makes the argument, backed both by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons better. Human beings are flawed and limited—"not everybody can be extraordinary, there are winners and losers in society, and some of it is not fair or your fault." Manson advises us to get to know our limitations and accept them. Once we embrace our fears, faults, and uncertainties, once we stop running and avoiding and start confronting painful truths, we can begin to find the courage, perseverance, honesty, responsibility, curiosity, and forgiveness we seek. There are only so many things we can give a f**k about so we need to figure out which ones really matter, Manson makes clear. While money is nice, caring about what you do with your life is better, because true wealth is about experience. A much-needed grab-you-by-the-shoulders-and-look-you-in-the-eye moment of real-talk, filled with entertaining stories and profane, ruthless humor, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is a refreshing slap for a generation to help them lead contented, grounded lives.
