Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of the great naval leaders of our time, a master class in decision-making under pressure through the stories of nine famous acts of leadership in battle, drawn from the history of the United States Navy, with outcomes both glorious and notorious At the heart of Admiral James Stavridis’s training as a naval officer was the preparation to lead sailors in combat, to face the decisive moment in battle whenever it might arise. In To Risk it All, he offers up nine of the most useful and enthralling stories from the US Navy’s nearly 250-year history, and draws from them a set of insights that we can all put to use when confronted with fateful choices. Conflict. Crisis. Risk. These words have a distinct meaning in a military context that we hope will never apply identically in our own lives. But at the same time, as Admiral Stavridis shows with great clarity, many lessons are universal. To Risk it All is filled with thrilling and heroic exploits, but it is anything but a shallow exercise in myth burnishing. Every leader in this book has real flaws, as all humans do, and the stories of failure, or at least the decisions that have been defined as such, are as crucial as the stories of success. In the end, when this master class is concluded, we will be better armed for hard decisions both expected and not.

Thanks to a careless fall off his horse, he is now on crutches - out of training and a job. Not to mention he’s had to promise Brooklyn he’ll back off so they could be just friends, which is the last thing he wants. The worst part is he knows she’s into him too; she’s as much as admitted it. And that kiss… There is no denying their chemistry after that kiss at the costume dance. But he can’t date a student and he balked when she asked him if he was willing to risk it all to be with her. Now that his job and training are on hold, his outlook has changed and he’s beginning to realize what really matters and what he wants from his life.

Download or read book To Risk It All written by Michael McConnell and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2020-10-20 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: General John Forbes’s campaign against Fort Duquesne was the largest over-land expedition during the Seven Years’ War in America. While most histories of the time period include the Forbes Campaign as an aside, McConnell documents how and why Forbes and his army succeeded, and what his success meant to the subsequent history of the mid-Atlantic colonies, native inhabitants of the Ohio Country, and the empire he represented. A close look at the Forbes Campaign and its personnel reveals much about both British relations with native peoples and the nature of Britain’s American empire during a time of stress. Unlike other campaigns, this one was composed largely of colonial—not professional British—troops. In addition, individual colonies negotiated their role in the campaign and frequently placed their own local interests ahead of those of the empire as a whole. The campaign thus suggests the limits of imperial power and how Britain’s hold over its American frontiers was, at best, tenuous and helped lead to an eventual break-down of empire in the 1760s and 1770s.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chasity is the oldest daughter and ‘side baby’ of multi-millionaire, Chaz Arrington. She lives a much more lavish life than your average teenager, staying laced in the latest designer clothes and flashiest jewelry. She has everything she needs, but she’s still missing the one thing every girl longs for: real love. Even being raised in a million-dollar mansion can’t fill the void that comes with never knowing her mother. Growing up in a house with her evil stepmother only makes her feel like an outcast, even though she’s the apple of her dad’s eye. Even so, with her dad’s frequent trips to see his long-time mistress, and her aunt living over 2,000 miles away, Chasity often feels neglected. King Anderson is the definition of a young self-made boss. At only the age of 16, the death of his father forced him to take over the family advertising agency. At the time the business was taking a spiral downhill and going broke. King turned to the streets, determined to make quick cash and launder it to look like the company was progressing and before he knew it, business was booming. Now at the age of 21, King is the owner of a million-dollar legit business and a multi-million-dollar street business. He’s able to spoil his mother and younger siblings with anything they want and need, so for him, everything is perfect. Everything besides the constant nagging from his mom telling him to find someone to make him happy. Everyone in Pennsylvania knows of King so women flocked to him. The problem is King knows they’re all the same: looking to build a name and make a quick come up. He refuses to be anybody’s bank ride, and honestly, he’s happy making his family happy. At least that’s what he thinks until he meets Chasity. Chasity and King cross paths by accident and are instantly drawn to each other. As if they were created for one another, the chemistry between them is undeniable. Even when chaos breaks out in their individual worlds, they’re still able to find peace together. But when Chaz gets caught up on the street side of King’s business, he threatens to take the whole empire down, leaving Chasity to pick a side. Will Chasity help the two men in her life finally see eye to eye, or will she risk it all for the love of a king?

Book excerpt: Discover how yielding ourselves wholly to God, especially in the midst of challenging circumstances, lends new purpose to our lives. “Vivian Mabuni is a kind and trustworthy guide through one of adulthood’s secrets: life doesn’t go like you thought it would.”—Jen Hatmaker, New York Times best-selling author of For the Love and Of Mess and Moxie As women after God’s heart, we honestly desire to please God. We want to be used by Him and to experience the peace and fulfillment He wants for us. Yet it’s all too easy to fall into living mechanically, with a rule-based approach to the Christian life, or to focus on getting what we want when we want it. Even when we want to be willing, saying yes to whatever God asks often feels scary, and the distractions of this world get in the way. Vivian Mabuni knows this all too well, but she’s discovered that open-handed living starts with an intentional posture of the heart. Through surrender to His will, we draw closer to God in a way that makes our day-to-day lives more purposeful, powerful, and pleasing to Him. With Vivian’s warm encouragement in Open Hands, Willing Heart, you’ll learn how to step out in courageous trust as you invite God to give and take—and move and work—in your life as He sees fit. Along the way you’ll discover true joy and serenity that will carry you through every circumstance.

She works in the same hospital that King is in when he slips into a coma and is harassed by her supervisor because she visits him every day. When King wakes up he discovers a lot of disturbing news; news that leaves him on bad terms with Rudy and puts Money on his ‘People That Must Die’ list. Chaz gives an unofficial statement and King is handcuffed to his hospital bed with promises to go straight to jail once he’s cleared. There’s nothing he could do about it, but that doesn’t mean Chasity can’t do anything about it. She helps to get rid of Linda, and King and her father is set free. Chasity is relieved because she feels like she finally has both of her men in her life, but Chaz had other plans. He isn’t happy with his daughter and begins to ignore her because he feels like she is choosing King over family. Again, she’s forced to choose between her father and the man who stole her heart. After Queenie is kidnapped, King turns to the bottle to try and conceal his feelings. His drunk outbursts might be enough to make Chasity’s decision an easy one. Or maybe, she’s still willing to Risk it All for her Boss.
