But first she has to: · Fix the swamp cooler and make dinner and put Berkeley to bed because her mom is too busy to do all that · Write another letter to her dad even though he hasn’t written back yet · Teach Berk the important stuff, like how to make chalk drawings, because they can’t afford day care and Olivia has to stay home from school to watch her · Petition her oddball neighbors for a circus spectacular, because there needs to be something to look forward to at dumb-bum Sunny Pines · Become a super-secret spy to impress her new friend Bart · Enter a minimum of fourteen sweepstakes a day. Who knows? She may already be a winner! Olivia has thought of everything . . . except herself. Who will take care of her when she needs it?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: YOU and I were born to WIN! Nowhere in our universe does it say that you are a loser. The Bible says that you are "The Apple of God's Eye". God has made you to ride upon the high places of the earth. You deserve the very BEST that our Father has to offer. He wants you to be a "Winner" and to have an abundant life filled with joy. He wants YOU to be happy, healthy, and wise. YOU are the BEST product that the Father has ever produced! You were created in His image and in His class. As a Winner, you expect to win! WINNERS have plans. LOSERS have excuses. WINNERS find the answer. LOSERS seek out the problem. WINNERS are part of the answer. LOSERS are normally the problem. WINNERS say that it is highly possible. LOSERS say that it is definitely impossible. Losers are complainers and whiners. Winners are positive. Each human being is born as a brand new creation.someone who has never existed before.with the capacity to win in life.each person having a unique way of seeing, hearing, touching, tasting, thinking, and doing things. Each has her own unique potentials, capabilities, and limitations. Each is a significant and creative being.creation of God.a real winner. Most people are not 100% winners or 100% losers. We all have "bad hair" days. I have no hair.So, as you can see, I have seen a few bad hair days in my time. However, once a person is on the road to winning, her chances of continuing to win in the game of life are tremendous. Winners have different potentials. Winners do their own thinking. They think for themselves. Winners never play the "helpless" game.nor do they play the "blame" game. They play to win. They assume responsibility for their own lives. Winners are able to love and be loved. Winners have a zest and passion for life. They have energy! They have passion for the things in which they believe. Winners care about the world, the earth, and the environment. They are not isolated from the general concerns of society, but they are concerned and compassionate about improving the quality of life. Winners want to make the world a better place and enjoy life to its fullest! Furthermore, as you are blessed as a Winner, you will have an APPRECIATION for others and a POSITIVE ATTITUDE. You will make commitments and have good communication with others. You will have a greater LOVE, SENSITIVITY, and COMPASSION for others. Your SENSE of HUMOR, PATIENCE, and TOLERANCE for the weaknesses in others will expand. Regardless of where you are in your walk on Planet Earth, being a winner will make you feel good about yourself. You will begin to expand your goals and your horizons. You will invest in your mind and spirit by studying inspirational and motivational books, CDs, and DVDs. Attending the Church of your choice will be very important to you. You will spend quality time with quality people. As a Winner, you will use your time wisely and you will be TEACHABLE. YOU were created to be a "Winner". YOU were made for GREATNESS. You were made to soar like an eagle.not like a chicken in the barnyard eating chicken feed with the hogs. YOU were made for excellence and style. Winning is now part of your life. YOU were created to rule and reign with Christ while on earth.and later in heaven. YOU shall eat in PLENTY and be SATISFIED. You have become a winner because you belong to the family of God. Abundance is YOURS. You will not lack. The Lord is your Shepherd. God has been GOOD to you. He will never let you down. You will never be put to shame (Rom.10:11). God loves you unconditionally. You were born to win. For centuries, "He who had the gold made the rules". That does not work anymore on a permanent basis. Some of the possessors of the gold have gone blind from the glare of their own self-brilliance and self-importance.

Download or read book On Tennis written by David Foster Wallace and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2014-06-24 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of Infinite Jest and Consider the Lobster: a collection of five brilliant essays on tennis, from the author's own experience as a junior player to his celebrated profile of Roger Federer at the peak of his powers. A "long-time rabid fan of tennis," and a regionally ranked tennis player in his youth, David Foster Wallace wrote about the game like no one else. On Tennis presents David Foster Wallace's five essays on the sport, published between 1990 and 2006, and hailed as some of the greatest and most innovative sports writing of our time. This lively and entertaining collection begins with Wallace's own experience as a prodigious tennis player ("Derivative Sport in Tornado Alley"). He also challenges the sports memoir genre ("How Tracy Austen Broke My Heart"), takes us to the US Open ("Democracy and Commerce at the U.S. Open"), and profiles of two of the world's greatest tennis players ("Tennis Player Michael Joyce's Professional Artistry as a Paradigm of Certain Stuff About Choice, Freedom, Limitation, Joy, Grotesquerie, and Human Completeness" and "Federer Both Flesh and Not"). With infectious enthusiasm and enormous heart, Wallace's writing shows us the beauty, complexity, and brilliance of the game he loved best.

Download or read book You Could Be the Winner Volume II written by Ahmed Sayeed and published by Sankalp Publication. This book was released on 2019-09-24 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Truth is ever to be found in simplicity and not in multiplicity and confusion of things. I have just three things to teach or say: to the contemporary Humans that simplicity, Patience and compassion are the three building blocks of humanity. Simplicity and humanity are the ultimate sophistications of human civilization. They are the essence of happiness since great acts are made up of small deeds. All I have is a sense of duty toward all people and attachment to those with whom I have become intimate. Thus the next evolutionary step for me that mankind is to be more from man to kind. Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s need not everyman’s greed. Hence I have taken up writing books to mould other beings to be humans not as savage since we Hominids were savage in early stage and now it is high time to turn out ourselves into humans. Simplicity, which is the essence of happiness, is great act of humans for doing small deeds. Right from retirement as an Audit Officer from the Office of the Principal Accountant General Audit Andhra Pradesh Hyderabad, on 01-07-2003, I studied LL.B, at the evening age of 60 to 69 years while writing certain controversial books like (i)“ Human Life-A Philosophical Audit, (ii) We Think Therefore We Are”, (iii)“My Mind is My Mosque” (iv)“ Tears of Terrorism” (v) “After all Whose Life is It any Way?”( a book on Euthanasia) (vi)“Know your India-Open a new Page for writing Nationalism” (for India’s Nationalism) (vii) Paradise Lost ( a real life story of a Jihadists killing his own mother in Syria for the sake of Blessing of Paradise by the Allah) (viii) “Spicy Trade” (How India was subjected to Invasion by Arabs, Europeans and finally tampered One India into Three viz. Pakistan, India and Bangladesh, (ix) “Father Turns Monster” ( real story relating to a father to save his child by killing innocent peoples and plucked their organs like Lungs and Heart and used for Transplantation and replacement of his sons Lungs and Heart”) (x) “Tridevi Trident” (story relating to three sisters killing their father who became Psycho in raping the children including themselves and this is also a real story). I normally portray in a books only facts not fiction, poetry and no fairy tails. My aim is let the decide what is fact and what fiction and develop his personality accordingly since what ever that feels, perceives, desires expressions and emotions are all the offshoots of the Brain. The meaning of life is to take birth, to grow, to feed, to develop energy, procreate children and finally to die and merge into the womb of Earth as a piece of nuclei. That is it! Hence I did not show craze for the monetary returns but only to show the people how the realm of our Society is inflamed with monetary gains. This my story in short.
