Download or read book The Rule of Nines written by Kathlyn Heim and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2019-10-01 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For those who have difficulty achieving goals, this self-help guide offers a simple approach to making lasting behavioral changes for success. Some people struggle every single day to improve but seem to take three steps back for every two steps forward. People tell them it’s because they lack willpower or because they’re weak or don’t want something badly enough. But they know that’s not true. Health and Wellness coach Kathlyn Heim helps those who are constantly struggling to create lasting change in their lives finally make their changes stick. The Rule of Nines lays out an individualized nine-step approach to goal identification, achievement, and permanent success that helps readers understand why they’ve failed in the past and shows them how to effectively change their actions moving forward. Although there are plenty of goal achievement guides, Kathlyn works in the missing piece of deep self-reflection that’s necessary for lasting change. Rather than being based on an external reward system, The Rule of Nines focuses on an internal reward system through self-discovery, making it possible for readers to live the life they desire and proving that it really is never too late to change.

To the Nines will send you on a mission to discover the roots of the game, and to seek out your own unique and unheralded courses.

Book excerpt: "[A] narrative of unfathomable courage... Ms. Strauss does her readers—and her subjects—a worthy service by returning to this appalling history of the courage of women caught up in a time of rapacity and war." —Wall Street Journal "Utterly gripping." —Anne Sebba, author of Les Parisiennes "A compelling, beautifully written story of resilience, friendship and survival. The story of Women’s resistance during World War II needs to be told and The Nine accomplishes this in spades." —Heather Morris, New York Times bestselling author of Cilka's Journey The Nine follows the true story of the author’s great aunt Hélène Podliasky, who led a band of nine female resistance fighters as they escaped a German forced labor camp and made a ten-day journey across the front lines of WWII from Germany back to Paris. The nine women were all under thirty when they joined the resistance. They smuggled arms through Europe, harbored parachuting agents, coordinated communications between regional sectors, trekked escape routes to Spain and hid Jewish children in scattered apartments. They were arrested by French police, interrogated and tortured by the Gestapo. They were subjected to a series of French prisons and deported to Germany. The group formed along the way, meeting at different points, in prison, in transit, and at Ravensbrück. By the time they were enslaved at the labor camp in Leipzig, they were a close-knit group of friends. During the final days of the war, forced onto a death march, the nine chose their moment and made a daring escape. Drawing on incredible research, this powerful, heart-stopping narrative from Gwen Strauss is a moving tribute to the power of humanity and friendship in the darkest of times.

She may have learned the art of politics from her dad, but it's the lessons in survival taught by his security chief that she's taken to heart. When Riley is caught up in a violent incident, the State Department steps in, offering an all-expense paid senior year at Harrington Academy, one of the most elite boarding schools in Connecticut. The catch: she must use her tactical skills to keep her eye on heiress Hayden Frasier, the daughter of a tech billionaire intent on changing the world. Immersed in American materialism and social media for the first time, it's culture shock for Riley. Hayden resents her new roommate, and Riley learns nothing is ever private when there's a cellphone around. She discovers allies in Von Alder, the cute class flirt; Sam Hudson, whose status as Hayden's ex-boyfriend puts him on the forbidden list; and Major Grace Taylor, Harrington's tough new head of security, and the only one who knows Riley's true purpose at Harrington. Disturbing signs begin to appear that Riley's assignment wasn't the walk in the park she'd been promised. She learns the death of Hayden's former roommate might not have been an accident after all, and she spars with classmate Quinn, whose attempts at social sabotage causes Riley to take drastic measures. As Riley's relationship with Hayden thaws into her first opportunity at true friendship, the danger around her roommate heats up. Riley must fight for her life and Hayden's - and the security of a nation - as those around her reveal themselves to be true friends, or the ultimate betrayers.
