Download or read book The Daily Stoic written by Ryan Holiday and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the team that brought you The Obstacle Is the Way and Ego Is the Enemy, a daily devotional of Stoic meditations—an instant Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestseller. Why have history's greatest minds—from George Washington to Frederick the Great to Ralph Waldo Emerson, along with today's top performers from Super Bowl-winning football coaches to CEOs and celebrities—embraced the wisdom of the ancient Stoics? Because they realize that the most valuable wisdom is timeless and that philosophy is for living a better life, not a classroom exercise. The Daily Stoic offers 366 days of Stoic insights and exercises, featuring all-new translations from the Emperor Marcus Aurelius, the playwright Seneca, or slave-turned-philosopher Epictetus, as well as lesser-known luminaries like Zeno, Cleanthes, and Musonius Rufus. Every day of the year you'll find one of their pithy, powerful quotations, as well as historical anecdotes, provocative commentary, and a helpful glossary of Greek terms. By following these teachings over the course of a year (and, indeed, for years to come) you'll find the serenity, self-knowledge, and resilience you need to live well.

In this book, you’ll find the stories of dozens of people who are enjoying the blessings of following a Word of Wisdom diet, and you’ll get concrete advice on how to get started! You will discover: What we should and should not eat to enjoy maximum physical health. How food is intimately connected to our spiritual well being. Why Latter-day Saints are succumbing to the same chronic diseases as the rest of the population, despite not smoking, drinking, or doing drugs. How the Word of Wisdom was designed specifically for our day. How you can receive the “hidden treasures” and other blessings promised in the Word of Wisdom. Why eating the foods God has ordained for our use is better not just for our bodies, but for the animals and for the earth. You may think you know what the Word of Wisdom says, but you’ll be amazed at what you have missed. Learn why Mormons all over the world are “waking up” to the Word of Wisdom!

Download or read book Jim Crow Wisdom written by Jonathan Scott Holloway and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we balance the desire for tales of exceptional accomplishment with the need for painful doses of reality? How hard do we work to remember our past or to forget it? These are some of the questions that Jonathan Scott Holloway addresses in this exploration of race memory from the dawn of the modern civil rights era to the present. Relying on social science, documentary film, dance, popular literature, museums, memoir, and the tourism trade, Holloway explores the stories black Americans have told about their past and why these stories are vital to understanding a modern black identity. In the process, Holloway asks much larger questions about the value of history and facts when memories do violence to both. Making discoveries about his own past while researching this book, Holloway weaves first-person and family memories into the traditional third-person historian's perspective. The result is a highly readable, rich, and deeply personal narrative that will be familiar to some, shocking to others, and thought-provoking to everyone.

Download or read book Stillness Is the Key written by Ryan Holiday and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2019-10-01 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller & Wall Street Journal Bestseller In The Obstacle Is the Way and Ego Is the Enemy, bestselling author Ryan Holiday made ancient wisdom wildly popular with a new generation of leaders in sports, politics, and technology. In his new book, Stillness Is the Key, Holiday draws on timeless Stoic and Buddhist philosophy to show why slowing down is the secret weapon for those charging ahead. All great leaders, thinkers, artists, athletes, and visionaries share one indelible quality. It enables them to conquer their tempers. To avoid distraction and discover great insights. To achieve happiness and do the right thing. Ryan Holiday calls it stillness--to be steady while the world spins around you. In this book, he outlines a path for achieving this ancient, but urgently necessary way of living. Drawing on a wide range of history's greatest thinkers, from Confucius to Seneca, Marcus Aurelius to Thich Nhat Hanh, John Stuart Mill to Nietzsche, he argues that stillness is not mere inactivity, but the doorway to self-mastery, discipline, and focus. Holiday also examines figures who exemplified the power of stillness: baseball player Sadaharu Oh, whose study of Zen made him the greatest home run hitter of all time; Winston Churchill, who in balancing his busy public life with time spent laying bricks and painting at his Chartwell estate managed to save the world from annihilation in the process; Fred Rogers, who taught generations of children to see what was invisible to the eye; Anne Frank, whose journaling and love of nature guided her through unimaginable adversity. More than ever, people are overwhelmed. They face obstacles and egos and competition. Stillness Is the Key offers a simple but inspiring antidote to the stress of 24/7 news and social media. The stillness that we all seek is the path to meaning, contentment, and excellence in a world that needs more of it than ever.

Download or read book Holiday Songs and Kisses written by Ruben Santos Claveria and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-12-19 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book Summary: Holiday Songs and Kisses is a collection of poems that came from ideas I had while attending a spiritual support group in Chicago called The Living Circle. These poems express my longing, as a Gay man living with HIV, to connect with my partner, friends and family as well as geniuses of art and literature in order to find spiritual enlightenment. They are personal poems yet convey universal themes for meditation that are inclusive of anyone who attempts to sympathize with others and love another human being. These poems transcend the faults of disability to praise others with songs, words and kisses. This book comes as the reward from much therapy. Websites: www.twitter.com/RubenandMike www.myspace.com/earthcircle Im on Facebook too. Author Commentary: Comming out publicly about my HIV status was a choice I made when decided to self-publish my book, "Holiday Songs and Kisses." I have been living with HIV for two years now and most of my friends and family know. I have even told people on Myspace.com and people that I have met in Support Groups and Group Therapy that I am HIV Positive. I try to be a conscious citizen and activist using democratic means, like sending letters to the President of the U.S. and people in Congress at www.Congress.org. Ive encouraged my partner, Mike, who is HIV negative, and people on the internet to write letters as well about many issues like Gay, Lesbian, Transgender Human Rights, Enviromental Issues, Health Care, Housing, Gun Violence, etc. Mike and I have received letters from Congress People in response to our concerns. I love to read great books of classic literature and contemporary poets as well. I like to go the the website www.NobelPrize.org and read speeches written by Poets, Writers, Peacemakers, Scientists and Economists who have won the Nobel Prize. One of my favorites is Martin Luther King Jr.s speech and lecture on that website. I have been through a few years of therapy to learn how to cope with Mental Health issues and keep myself in a constant process of recovery from symptoms that can make someone feel unwell. Holiday Songs and Kisses are prose poems that are partly inspired by desire to heal through therapy. I found a friend named Larry, another self-published Gay poet, in therapy who invited me to a spiritual support group called the Living Circle, a group that is open to everyone especially the GLBT community. I attended that group for over a year and wrote some notes down every time I spoke with the group about my concerns and lit a candle in vigil for someone. Holiday Songs and Kisses is a collection of some of those notes in prose poem form. The "Kisses" section of my book, was inspired by a film I saw with my partner Mike called "Cinema Paradiso." These "kisses" are also a collection of my ideas on film, art, music, literature and they are dedicated to anyone who choses to care about me, because some of my friends and family members have given me the loving supportive enviroment I needed to be creative. I believe that a poem lives by companionship and becomes greater in the eyes of a sensitive reader. These kisses transcend the personal dedications I have made and become universal meditations on family, romance, friendship, art, literature, film and religion. I dedicate these poems to anyone who desires to be loved and admired for their talents and achievements. I dedicate this book to anyone who desires to heal others and be healed. My medication is keeping me alive and healthy so I am full of life-affirmative praise for the people who care to make a difference in other peoples lives. Thank you very much and Good luck to you. May the Holidays and the new year bring you your best wishes, for now and for all time. Kind regards, Ruben Santos Claveria
Download or read book The Batting Doctor s Cricket Wisdom written by The Batting Doctor and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With 50 years of passionate involvement in cricket; extensive effort to constantly understand and improve what I do; insightful exploration of such things as ancient Chinese and Japanese texts as well as modern psychology concepts, I have developed my own philosophies and ways of doing things in cricket. Many of these ways are unique to me and opposite to conventional instruction. Whilst my hearing, memory and physical condition are all in decline, the satisfaction gained from understanding what motivates and can improve an individual remains a major source of inspiration. Often I have observed people with extraordinary talent give up just short of what they could achieve, yet others with less talent, but with an indomitable spirit continue on and reap the rewards of success. Why does this happen? We simply have not been educated in how to harness and use our thinking minds wisely. The result is that our efforts in life are often hit or miss. Importantly the WISDOM contained in my book, can help my readers better identify, connect with and meet the challenges that their involvement in cricket will bring.
Download or read book A Biblical Response to Superstition Will Worship and the Christmas Holiday written by Daniel Cawdrey and published by Puritan Publications. This book was released on 2012-06-25 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work, Cawdrey exegetically and biblically demonstrates that worship to God is accomplished through God’s prescription alone. Anything less is man’s invention which leads to superstition and will-worship. He ably defends the regulative principle of worship (that God alone determines the manner in which sinners are to approach him) and demonstrates that even the holiday of Christmas, in the manner that people use it as a “holy day,” is in fact filled with superstition, and must be considered will-worship. This is a powerful and scholarly treatise on holding steadfastly to God’s prescribed manner of worship, and an exhortation to throw out all man-made inventions that hinder communion with God. This work is not a scan or facsimile and has been made easy to read with an active table of contents for electronic versions.
