Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An “immensely intriguing” new approach “that can successfully combat the shame, anxiety, and blame that failing induces too readily in our society” (Laurie Hollman, PhD, author of Unlocking Parental Intelligence). We spend much of our lives trying to cope with failure. For many of us, adults and children alike, the prospect of failure looms as a debilitating concept in our minds. It can not only stop us from succeeding—it can stop us from even trying. Fail Brilliantly proposes a radical shift: erase the word and concept of failure from the realms of education and human endeavors. Replace it with new words and concepts. This shift in position has the potential to transform our lives . . . and ultimately reshape our definition of success.

Download or read book Heavy written by Kiese Laymon and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-10-16 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *Selected as One of the Best Books of the 21st Century by The New York Times* *Named a Best Book of the Year by The New York Times, Publishers Weekly, NPR, Broadly, BuzzFeed (Nonfiction), The Undefeated, Library Journal (Biography/Memoirs), The Washington Post (Nonfiction), Southern Living (Southern), Entertainment Weekly, and The New York Times Critics* In this powerful, provocative, and universally lauded memoir—winner of the Andrew Carnegie Medal and finalist for the Kirkus Prize—genre-bending essayist and novelist Kiese Laymon “provocatively meditates on his trauma growing up as a black man, and in turn crafts an essential polemic against American moral rot” (Entertainment Weekly). In Heavy, Laymon writes eloquently and honestly about growing up a hard-headed black son to a complicated and brilliant black mother in Jackson, Mississippi. From his early experiences of sexual violence, to his suspension from college, to time in New York as a college professor, Laymon charts his complex relationship with his mother, grandmother, anorexia, obesity, sex, writing, and ultimately gambling. Heavy is a “gorgeous, gutting…generous” (The New York Times) memoir that combines personal stories with piercing intellect to reflect both on the strife of American society and on Laymon’s experiences with abuse. By attempting to name secrets and lies he and his mother spent a lifetime avoiding, he asks us to confront the terrifying possibility that few in this nation actually know how to responsibly love, and even fewer want to live under the weight of actually becoming free. “A book for people who appreciated Roxane Gay’s memoir Hunger” (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel), Heavy is defiant yet vulnerable, an insightful, often comical exploration of weight, identity, art, friendship, and family through years of haunting implosions and long reverberations. “You won’t be able to put [this memoir] down…It is packed with reminders of how black dreams get skewed and deferred, yet are also pregnant with the possibility that a kind of redemption may lie in intimate grappling with black realities” (The Atlantic).

Download or read book The Brilliant Life of Eudora Honeysett written by Annie Lyons and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2020-09-08 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: USA TODAY BESTSELLER! "One adorably British odd couple . . . Charming." — People “An exquisitely poignant tale of life, friendship and facing death . . . heart-breaking yet ultimately uplifting . . Everyone should read this book.” — Ruth Hogan, author of Queenie Malone’s Paradise Hotel Infused with the emotional power of Me Before You and the irresistible charm of Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine and Be Frank with Me, a moving and joyous novel about an elderly woman ready to embrace death and the little girl who reminds her what it means to live. It's never too late to start living. Eudora Honeysett is done with this noisy, moronic world—all of it. She has witnessed the indignities and suffering of old age and has lived a full life. At eighty-five, she isn’t going to leave things to chance. Her end will be on her terms. With one call to a clinic in Switzerland, a plan is set in motion. Then she meets ten-year-old Rose Trewidney, a whirling, pint-sized rainbow of sparkling cheer. All Eudora wants is to be left alone to set her affairs in order. Instead, she finds herself embarking on a series of adventures with the irrepressible Rose and their affable neighbor, the recently widowed Stanley—afternoon tea, shopping sprees, trips to the beach, birthday celebrations, pizza parties. While the trio of unlikely BFFs grow closer and anxiously await the arrival of Rose’s new baby sister, Eudora is reminded of her own childhood—of losing her father during World War II and the devastating impact it had on her entire family. In reflecting on her past, Eudora realizes she must come to terms with what lies ahead. But now that her joy for life has been rekindled, how can she possibly say goodbye?
Download or read book Leading Brilliantly written by Roger Corea and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-02-12 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why Should You Buy This Book? As you weigh the pros and cons of buying this book, you are probably asking yourself, "Why should I buy it? What do I hope to gain from reading it?" The answer might be, "Perhaps I may gain some new insights into myself, my organization, or on how I can lead others more effectively. Our hope is that you gain so much more! Through this learning experience, we hope you will achieve a positive transformation in your life. Why? Because transformation is so much greater than simple change. Transformation is life altering. That's a tall order for a book, but one we know is possible. We know because we have seen it happen with the many people we have led and trained. Helping others transform their lives is our mission. We define that transformation as significant positive change that leads to greater success, fulfillment and happiness. Yes, change is difficult for most people. Sadly, for most people, it rarely happens, and when it does, it is usually driven by pain or fear. Think about it. 62 percent of Americans stay in jobs with bosses they hate until the pain of staying exceeds the pain of leaving. Most never leave. How tragic. Fear is the other punishing motivator. If I can't pay my mortgage, I may have to take on a second job. Or my boss may place me on a performance improvement plan (also known as a keep your job or else plan). He knows full well that over half of all action plans result in termination. Or how about the person who quits smoking after a close friend dies of cancer. Or the person who finally decides to eat right after their heart attack. This is not the kind of motivation that leads to a better life and is often too little too late. There is a better way. Significant change is driven by clarifying what you really want and developing the right mindset and habits to get there. It is understanding the obstacles to change and how to manage them as well as learning how to leverage your strengths and overcome your weaknesses. It means discovering new more effective ways to interact with subordinates, colleagues, and management. We are not proposing hypothetical ideas but teaching proven systems for enhancing personal effectiveness. We will drill down to the details with clear instruction and exercises. Yes, there is a better way to live your life. There is a better way to affect significant positive change in your life as well as those around you. We want nothing less than to support you as you discover new behaviors and habits that will transform your life. We are excited about the journey ahead of you and hope you will use this book for years to come. Our best to you, Roger Corea Michael Keys
Download or read book Relationshifting Tools for Living Quantum Resplendency written by Angela Longo and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our lives are supposed to be resplendent, radiant, and glorious. Instead, what most of us experience is a life filled with struggle, conflict, and illness. Relationshifting creates a bridge to a new life based upon Dr. Angela Longo's more than forty years of clinical experience. Dr. Longo offers an overview of the "eight bottom lines," which she defines as the eight major ways in which we block the flow of positive energy into our lives. She explains how to shift that energy to resplendent living by relationshifting through quantum resplendency-a quantum way of living. The Relationshifting workbook includes explanations and exercises using the following tools: -Heartwaving is an easy-to-use technique used to shift old, unproductive patterns to resplendency. -Bathwaves are Longo's self-created energy patterns based upon her beliefs, attitudes, thoughts, habits, words, actions, values, and emotions. -Love Letters are messages she sends to herself to guide her to living resplendency. -Triunity shows her she is actually three beings in one-promoting understanding of her larger persona. -Eternalbeing indicates the larger, unique purpose of her life. -Muscle testing helps to assess her perceptions and patterns. -Shifting the Eight Bottom Lines, the eight judgments that keep her from changing her Bathwaves to living resplendency. Relationshifting demonstrates the fact that when you are living in the resplendent way, life is EEEZY-an eternal, emergent, entanglement as a zestful you.

Download or read book Live Hopefully written by Lenya Heitzig and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This all-new 20-minutes-a-day study of Nehemiah reminds readers that with God’s help, one person who is ready to do the impossible can change the world. Hope is not wishful thinking. It is a confident expectation for the future. Nehemiah knew how to live with true hope. After boldly requesting permission from the king to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile, he restored the city and called his people back to God. Despite opposition on all sides, Nehemiah saw God transform a cup-bearer into a contractor, ruins into a city, and a wayward people into followers of God. As Bible teacher Lenya Heitzig reminds readers in this new Fresh Life study, God calls them to live boldly with a hope that only He can give.

On a warm summer night in one of Boston’s working-class neighborhoods, an unthinkable crime has been committed: Four members of a family have been brutally murdered. The father—and possible suspect—now lies clinging to life in the ICU. Murder-suicide? Or something worse? Veteran police detective D. D. Warren is certain of only one thing: There’s more to this case than meets the eye. Danielle Burton is a survivor, a dedicated nurse whose passion is to help children at a locked-down pediatric psych ward. But she remains haunted by a family tragedy that shattered her life nearly twenty-five years ago. The dark anniversary is approaching, and when D. D. Warren and her partner show up at the facility, Danielle immediately realizes: It has started again. A devoted mother, Victoria Oliver has a hard time remembering what normalcy is like. But she will do anything to ensure that her troubled son has some semblance of a childhood. She will love him no matter what. Nurture him. Keep him safe. Protect him. Even when the threat comes from within her own house. The lives of these three women unfold and connect in unexpected ways, as sins from the past emerge—and stunning secrets reveal just how tightly blood ties can bind. Sometimes the most devastating crimes are the ones closest to home.
