Book What Are You Waiting For

Download or read book What Are You Waiting For written by Stephen J. Kauffman and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2019-04-04 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Are You Waiting For? By: Stephen J. Kauffman Struggling with self-worth, self-doubt, and loneliness is only a small part of the human condition. The beliefs, the programming, and the ideas passed on by caregivers, as well as the preconceived notions we have been exposed to early on is the real cause of the struggle. What Are You Waiting For? is a wake-up call to anyone who feels their life has been stuck on pause. “To Know Thyself is the beginning of wisdom.” (Socrates) By putting in the time and effort, Stephen continues on his path toward self-discovery and the ultimate freedom that comes with doing the “inside job.” While this journey has been anything but easy, the rewards and people along the way have made it all worthwhile. Guidance toward “self-discovery” does not have to be done in a vacuum. It’s something that must be achieved with others, as well as yourself. So, what are you waiting for?

Download or read book Animals and Teens written by Gail Green and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2009-01-19 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teens live in an imperfect world where people judge each other on looks, popularity, bank accounts, or clothing styles-a world where people are not always treated fairly. But animals do not care about poor test scores or bad skin; they simply love unconditionally. Such devotion makes the human-animal bond so special. In Animals and Teens: The Ultimate Teen Guide, author Gail Green illustrates various situations in which young adults become involved with animals, including providing foster care, pursuing career opportunities, or simply raising pets at home. Green shows how animals can enhance teens' lives and how teens can improve the welfare of animals that face abuse or live in shelters and wildlife preserves. Green discusses what is involved in the handling of service animals, such as dogs that provide physical assistance or horses that help with therapy. Animals and Teens also covers such basics as caring for animals and dealing with the loss of a pet. The voices in this book come from a large cross section of teens and young adults whose stories will resonate with anyone who loves animals. From helping with animal rescue to overcoming learning disabilities, these heartwarming experiences demonstrate how each of us can make a difference through the incredibly rewarding human-animal bond.

Book Ever After

Download or read book Ever After written by Anne Edwards and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Diana's many fans are sure to be delighted by Edwards's intimate prose and detailed descriptions." -Publishers Weekly. Perfect for fans of Netflix's The Crown. "This is the stuff of fairy tales," said the Archbishop of Canterbury on July 23, 1981, after the 20-year-old Lady Diana Spencer arrived in a glass coach for her wedding to Prince Charles. But everyone knows how that fairy tale ended. Drawing upon intensive research and interviews, acclaimed biographer Anne Edwards, well-known for her revelatory and incisive books on members of Britain's royal family, here uncovers new details of Diana's life and her search for love; of her family background; and of a betrayal, historic in its outcome. What the public did not know at the time of her storybook wedding was the true story of Diana's troubled childhood-of the cold, autocratic grandfather who disdained her father, who was himself an abusive husband obsessed with having a son to inherit the Spencer wealth and title. When Diana married Prince Charles, she joined the equally troubled House of Windsor, and was caught up in a plot Shakespearean in its deception and eventual tragic ending. Anne Edwards paints a vivid portrait of a woman desperate in her marriage, fearful of her life, who became devious-and often brilliant-in the moves she played in a treacherous royal chess game. As in her superb biographies of other royal and celebrated women, Anne Edwards's Ever After transcends the one-sided views of Diana in a work that must be called definitive. At long last, and with all of the insight and narrative drama that have marked her previous bestsellers, Edwards brings us the first full-scale, authoritative portrait of a more intelligent, more resourceful, and sometimes more ruthless woman than we have seen before.

Book The Complete Guide to Schnoodles

Download or read book The Complete Guide to Schnoodles written by Vanessa Richie and published by LP Media Inc. This book was released on 2020-12-02 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is required reading for anyone who shares their life with a Schnoodle! The Complete Guide to Schnoodles will help you unlock the secrets to raising your lively, inquisitive puppy into a friendly, well-trained adult dog. Filled with valuable tips and tricks for training and socializing your new Schnoodle, this handbook will ensure that you stay one step ahead of your clever canine. Find out the answers to your most pressing questions, including: Is a Schnoodle right for me? How do I prepare my home for a clever and active Schnoodle puppy? Which training methods do Schnoodles respond best to? How do I prevent or extinguish common problem behaviors? Schnoodles were developed in the 1980s from Poodles and Schnauzers, both intelligent, spunky breeds. While Poodles are generally friendly, outgoing dogs, Schnauzers tend to be a little more wary and protective. Schnoodles tend to inherit a little of both attitudes, with most being both friendly and protective. Each parent breed is intelligent, active, and curious canines, so it is essential that they get enough physical and mental exercise to keep them busy and out of trouble. Poodle and Schnauzer breeds both come in multiple sizes, each with their own personality quirks. Their offspring also come in a variety of sizes—from toy-sized to large—with the associated variation in temperament. Whether your particular Schnoodle inherits the curly coat of the Poodle or the straight, wiry coat of the Schnauzer, this dog is a good choice for allergy sufferers as both parent breeds are low-dander dogs. In this comprehensive manual, you will gain all the knowledge you need to guide your active Schnoodle from free-spirited pup to clever, well-mannered adult dog. Whether you are looking for a family companion, a therapy dog, or a performance animal, a Schnoodle is likely to be a good fit. These smart, active dogs can thrive in just about any environment, as long as they get plenty of love and affection. If left home alone too often or for too long, these cheerful pooches may bark excessively, develop separation anxiety, or become withdrawn. This thorough guidebook will give you the tools you need to keep your dog happy and healthy, from his first day home to his final years. Discover valuable information about your new Schnoodle, including: The history of the Schnauzer and the Poodle Choosing the right Schnoodle for your lifestyle Schnoodle sizes and temperaments What to expect from a breeder or rescue Preparing your home for a precocious pup The importance of play for your Schnoodle What to expect the first few weeks home House-training tips for the Schnoodle dog Socialization and training techniques for your smart Schnoodle Selecting a daily diet for your canine companion Grooming your Schnoodle (with guidelines for both coat types) Keeping your Schnoodle mentally and physically challenged Genetic health concerns common to Schnoodles Caring for your senior Schnoodle The designer dog known as the Schnoodle has only been around for a few decades, but they have gained a loyal following due to their entertaining and endearing natures. Unfortunately, unscrupulous breeders may try and cash in on this popularity without carefully selecting the sire and dam for health and temperament. It is essential to do your research when choosing a Schnoodle breeder to ensure that your pup remains healthy and happy.
