Download or read book The Secret Ingredient written by Gigi Butler and published by Howard Books. This book was released on 2021-03-09 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The founder of Gigi’s Cupcakes shares her personal success story, her hard-won business acumen, and the life-changing inspiration that has helped her follow her dreams in this warm-hearted and encouraging memoir that “will inspire savvy entrepreneurs to invest in their own dreams” (Daymond John, star of ABC’s Shark Tank). Featuring delicious dessert recipes for cupcakes and more in each chapter. As a young child, Gigi knew that if she wanted to succeed, she had to work hard and offer a service that people wanted to buy. At age seven, she sold eggs out of her little red wagon to neighbors. At age fifteen, she bought cleaning supplies and started a cleaning service out of her rural California home. When she moved to Nashville at nineteen, she had her heart set on becoming a country music star. Cleaning houses by day to support herself for over a decade, she realized that God had other plans for her. If she wouldn’t be a successful singer, she decided she would grow a business that she could be proud of. An extraordinary baker throughout her life, she decided to open a cupcake shop with all the money she could pull together. With the help and support of her family, she was able to open her first store in a prime Nashville location. The news of her cupcakes spread quickly, and the franchise became a huge success. Now, in The Secret Ingredient, Gigi reveals how her failure led her to explore her passion for baking and how she became a successful businesswoman. With spunk, humor, and insight, she weaves her hard-won wisdom and business acumen into the fun, fascinating, and instructive stories of her life. Each inspirational chapter concludes with a treasured family recipe for cupcakes and other scrumptious desserts. For anyone with big dreams, Gigi’s message is simple: believe in yourself, walk with integrity, work hard, and trust in God. Your life may not turn out exactly how you expected or hoped, but it will be so much better than you could have ever imagined. “If you ever need to feel inspired by a dreamer, this is a must read” (Tony Brown, music producer).

Download or read book The Secret of Our Success written by Joseph Henrich and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How our collective intelligence has helped us to evolve and prosper Humans are a puzzling species. On the one hand, we struggle to survive on our own in the wild, often failing to overcome even basic challenges, like obtaining food, building shelters, or avoiding predators. On the other hand, human groups have produced ingenious technologies, sophisticated languages, and complex institutions that have permitted us to successfully expand into a vast range of diverse environments. What has enabled us to dominate the globe, more than any other species, while remaining virtually helpless as lone individuals? This book shows that the secret of our success lies not in our innate intelligence, but in our collective brains—on the ability of human groups to socially interconnect and learn from one another over generations. Drawing insights from lost European explorers, clever chimpanzees, mobile hunter-gatherers, neuroscientific findings, ancient bones, and the human genome, Joseph Henrich demonstrates how our collective brains have propelled our species' genetic evolution and shaped our biology. Our early capacities for learning from others produced many cultural innovations, such as fire, cooking, water containers, plant knowledge, and projectile weapons, which in turn drove the expansion of our brains and altered our physiology, anatomy, and psychology in crucial ways. Later on, some collective brains generated and recombined powerful concepts, such as the lever, wheel, screw, and writing, while also creating the institutions that continue to alter our motivations and perceptions. Henrich shows how our genetics and biology are inextricably interwoven with cultural evolution, and how culture-gene interactions launched our species on an extraordinary evolutionary trajectory. Tracking clues from our ancient past to the present, The Secret of Our Success explores how the evolution of both our cultural and social natures produce a collective intelligence that explains both our species' immense success and the origins of human uniqueness.

Download or read book Journeys to Success written by Tom Cunningham and published by . This book was released on 2016-03-10 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Napoleon Hill's classic books, Think and Grow Rich and Law of Success, are timeless classics, enjoyed by people from all walks of life from around the world. Hill's writings were about people were alive at time he wrote. One of the concerns that The Napoleon Hill Foundation has is that, in order to get Millennials and upcoming generations to follow Hill's Success Principles, more recent and relevant stories need to be shared. When you read Journeys To Success, you will read about the personal and intimate stories of how Think and Grow Rich helped the co-authors overcome adversity and defeat, find their purpose, and maintain a Positive Mental Attitude through the many and varied challenges life brings your way. Hill identified 12 Riches of Life and at the top of the list is a Positive Mental Attitude. Purposefully, economic security is the last of the 12 Riches. Other Riches include; sound physical health, harmony in human relationships, freedom from fear, the hope of achievement, the capacity for faith, a willingness to share one's blessings, a labour of love, an open mind on all subjects, self-discipline, and the capacity to understand people. You have between 50,000 - 60,000 thoughts every day. God has given you the power to control your thoughts. Sadly, only about 5-10% of people actually make the effort to purposefully stop negative thoughts and replace them with pre-chosen positive thoughts. You will learn how these authors are able to do that and how you can as well. The main theme behind Hill's book 'Outwitting The Devil' is that Satan wants everyone to be 'drifters', without any burning desire, specific purpose, or meaningful goals. Although W. Clement Stone and the current President of the Napoleon Hill Foundation, James Oleson, thought that a Positive Mental Attitude is the most important Success Principle, Hill and Andrew Carnegie believed that having a specific and singular lifetime purpose was the most essential factor to achieving life success. The authors' stories will spark your imagination and encourage you to discover what you were created to do with your skills, talents, and abilities. You will hear about the powerful life-changing possibilities of a mastermind group, and it is our hope that you take action to recruit the people you need to help you make steady progress towards your goals. Once you know your specific purpose, and have recruited mastermind partners who will work in perfect harmony with you, you must demonstrate Applied Faith by taking action on a consistent basis over a long period of time. In most cases, you will not know every twist, turn, and obstacle along your upcoming journey and so it takes faith in yourself, your purpose and your plans to do something about it. Often, the best approach is Ready - Fire - Aim. Using this process, you take small steps and correct as you receive feedback until you are aiming at, and heading for, your target dead on. Waiting to know everything and eliminating all fears before taking action usually results in no action ever being taken. You are going to learn how important Going The Extra Mile has been for the authors and what they did to demonstrate that Success Principle to achieve their goals. Andrew Carnegie was a BIG supporter of Going The Extra Mile and he practiced it in his own life, starting with nothing, becoming the 3rd wealthiest person who ever lived, and then giving away 90% of his fortune. Going The Extra Mile is a Principle that does not apply to simply working for money. It applies in every area of your life including being a spouse, parent, friend, son or daughter. When you apply it every single day in every area of your life, whether you feel like it or not, you will become a person of character and value to the people closest to you.
Download or read book CookWise written by Shirley O. Corriher and published by William Morrow Cookbooks. This book was released on 2011-06-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In CookWise, food sleuth Shirley Corriher tells you how and why things happen in cooking. When you know how to estimate the right amount of baking powder, you can tell by looking at the recipe that the cake is overleavened and may fall. When you know that too little liquid for the amount of chocolate in a recipe can cause the chocolate to seize and become a solid grainy mass, you can spot chocolate truffle recipes that will be a disaster. And, in both cases, you know exactly how to "fix" the recipe. Knowing how ingredients work, individually and in combination, will not only make you more aware of the cooking process, it will transform you into a confident and exceptional cook—a cook who is in control. CookWise is a different kind of cookbook. There are more than 230 outstanding recipes—from Snapper Fingers with Smoked Pepper Tartar Sauce to Chocolate Stonehenge Slabs with Cappuccino Mousse—but here each recipe serves not only to please the palate but to demonstrate the roles of ingredients and techniques. The What This Recipe Shows section summarizes the special cooking points being demonstrated in each recipe. This little bit of science in everyday language indicates which steps or ingredients are vital and cannot be omitted without consequences. No matter what your cooking level, you'll find CookWise a revelation.
