Download or read book A Gift to My Children written by Jim Rogers and published by Random House. This book was released on 2009-04-28 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He’s the swashbuckling world traveler and legendary investor who made his fortune before he was forty. Now the bestselling author of A Bull in China, Hot Commodities, and Adventure Capitalist shares a heartfelt, indispensable guide for his daughters (and all young investors) to find success and happiness. In A Gift to My Children, Jim Rogers offers advice with his trademark candor and confidence, but this time he adds paternal compassion, protectiveness, and love. Rogers reveals how to learn from his triumphs and mistakes in order to achieve a prosperous, well-lived life. For example: • Trust your own judgment: Rogers sensed China’s true potential way back in the 1980s, at a time when most analysts were highly skeptical of its prospects for growth. • Focus on what you like: Rogers was five when he started collecting empty bottles at baseball games instead of playing. • Be persistent: Coming to Yale from rural Alabama, and in over his head, Rogers never stopped studying and wound up with a scholarship to Oxford. • See the world: In 1990, Rogers traveled through six continents by motorcycle, gaining a global perspective and learning how to evaluate prospects in rapidly developing countries such as Brazil, Russia, India, and China. • Nothing is really new: anything deemed “innovative” or “unprecedented” is usually just overhyped, as in the case of the Internet or TV, airplanes, and railroads before it • And not a bit off the subject, and very important: Boys will need you more than you’ll need them! Wise and warm, accessible and inspiring, A Gift to My Children is a great gift for all those just starting to invest in their futures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A teenage boy on trial can see and heal the human light fields, becoming a miracle healer while the world argues over his case. Sequel to The Little Universe. A soul transfer has Jim awaken in the hospital in another person's body. He has no memory of his past life or awareness of the crime committed before the near-fatal accident, a felony done by the body's previous occupant. Already a person of global interest due to the case and his miraculous recovery from brain-death, Jim still has a more stunning surprise. The crash has damaged his pineal gland, the very center of his brain, resulting in overproduction of the neurochemical dimethyltryptamine (DMT). Also called "the spirit molecule" for the profound hallucinations DMT causes, Jim's elevated levels enable him to see the lights within living things, including the auras and chakras of people. In time, Jim learns to manipulate these lights and correct imperfect flow to the way of natural design. The effect is spontaneous healing. His nurse, Vicki, discovers the gift. Her experiments confirm Jim can heal other patients, even those who haven't been cured by the world's best doctors. As people become aware of his healings, a rumor surfaces in the hospital and around the globe: that Jim is a messiah. All the while he's on trial for a crime he didn't commit. Does he deserve a life sentence, or is he a miracle healer the world desperately needs? One thing's for sure: everyone has an opinion. Nurses want to sleep with him, endorsements come from every angle, skeptics come to debunk him, patients need his healing touch, and still others want to train him to become the leader he was destined to be. "Jim's Life" is a story of spirituality, the courts of justice and the power of love. Subjects include: spiritual gifts, spiritual books, visionary fiction, chakra healing, energy healing, new thought, psychic, psychics, inspirational, reincarnation, past lives, healing by touch, meditation, spiritual journey, new age, soul transfer, soul development.
