Book excerpt: The college years are often referred to as the best years of your life. Author Frank J. Hanna believes your best years are still ahead of you, but only if you have a strategy for living that goes beyond what you learned in school. According to Hanna, wealth and success are not what you think. Drawing on a lifetime of business experience, he proposes a radically different approach. He shows that wealth is not merely money, competition has a higher purpose than simply getting ahead, and a life of happiness is simpler to attain than we imagine. If you are looking to succeed in the ways that really matter, Hanna's simple message, conveyed with clarity and insight, will change your views of wealth and success. And it might just change the course of your post-graduate life entirely!
Download or read book The Other Wes Moore written by Wes Moore and published by One World. This book was released on 2011-01-11 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the governor of Maryland, the “compassionate” (People), “startling” (Baltimore Sun), “moving” (Chicago Tribune) true story of two kids with the same name: One went on to be a Rhodes Scholar, decorated combat veteran, White House Fellow, and business leader. The other is serving a life sentence in prison. The chilling truth is that his story could have been mine. The tragedy is that my story could have been his. In December 2000, the Baltimore Sun ran a small piece about Wes Moore, a local student who had just received a Rhodes Scholarship. The same paper also ran a series of articles about four young men who had allegedly killed a police officer in a spectacularly botched armed robbery. The police were still hunting for two of the suspects who had gone on the lam, a pair of brothers. One was named Wes Moore. Wes just couldn’t shake off the unsettling coincidence, or the inkling that the two shared much more than space in the same newspaper. After following the story of the robbery, the manhunt, and the trial to its conclusion, he wrote a letter to the other Wes, now a convicted murderer serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole. His letter tentatively asked the questions that had been haunting him: Who are you? How did this happen? That letter led to a correspondence and relationship that have lasted for several years. Over dozens of letters and prison visits, Wes discovered that the other Wes had had a life not unlike his own: Both had had difficult childhoods, both were fatherless; they’d hung out on similar corners with similar crews, and both had run into trouble with the police. At each stage of their young lives they had come across similar moments of decision, yet their choices would lead them to astonishingly different destinies. Told in alternating dramatic narratives that take readers from heart-wrenching losses to moments of surprising redemption, The Other Wes Moore tells the story of a generation of boys trying to find their way in a hostile world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before you were born, God planned this exact moment. It is no coincidence you are reading this book, contemplating life after high school. God yearns for you to discover the life He designed for you to live-your purpose and mission. People are frequently puzzled by their pursuit of the purpose of life. We are commonly unaware of the starting point and the right questions to ask. Our purpose in life is more significant than ourselves. It is greater than our happiness and our wildest goals and ambitions. The Bible says, "The Lord directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives." God does not abandon us in the darkness. If we wish to know our purpose in life, we must acknowledge God as our source and starting point. We must answer the following questions: Who are you now? Whose are you? What does it mean to belong to God? What do you believe; and why? In Life Lessons for Graduates, author/educator Frances Arthur dives deep into these questions and their significance.
