Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Andrew Vachss, the master of hard-boiled fiction, returns with a deeply revealing new novel about an assassin whose love forced him to kill his own conscience. Esau Till’s race is almost run. After pleading guilty to a series of homicides, he sits on death row, awaiting lethal injection. And writing his life story. But his memoir is no case study in tragedy—it’s his one last chance to protect his brother, Tory, after he’s gone. And, as too many have learned, when it comes to protecting his baby brother, Esau Till is a man without boundaries. Esau’s father was a widely feared beast who, it was commonly believed, killed his wife and used his own daughter as a substitute. In Esau’s own words, when your sister is your mother, too, you know you’re not going to come out right. Not you, not your life, not nothing. When the genetic cards were dealt, Esau drew a genius IQ but a horribly crippled body. His brother Tory drew a “slow” mind but almost superhuman strength. Very early on, Esau learned that the only way to guarantee his baby brother’s safety was to make himself indispensable to certain people. A self-taught explosives expert, he became the top assassin for two rival local mobs. When a third mob attempted to recruit his brother, Esau took them all out, unaware that one of them was an under-cover FBI agent. Execution looms, but no prison can hold Esau’s mind. Or his love. As the State prepares to take his life, Esau plots going all-in on the last and most deadly hand he will ever play.

Download or read book This is How I Roll written by Jim Hardy and published by . This book was released on 2021-02 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The college years are the prime of most young people's lives. During this time, people experience new adventures, new friends, and a multitude of other exciting things. But what happens when tragedy strikes? For Jim Hardy, this was the case. One moment, Jim was living his life the way he wanted, and the next, he was navigating his way to a "new normal" by means of a wheelchair. In this autobiography, Hardy details the hardships he endured on his road to recovery. This is not a story about a tragic accident however. This Is How I Roll tells the story of how Jim used his accident to push himself even harder to become successful in life. Through the stories detailed in his book, the reader comes to realize that a wheelchair is just another part of life, and with determination, it does not have to hold anyone back. This book is meant to be read by all: every person trying to find hope in the midst of their own unique challenges, the parent terrified of what the future might hold for their child in a world that can be so cruel at times, and the kid wanting to understand just what life is like for his friend from school that rolls instead of walks. This is a story of success and triumph in the midst of challenges, and the reader looking for some form of inspiration should consider taking the time to read This Is How I Roll. It just might provide the spark needed in order for that someone to pursue their own dreams.

Download or read book Become an Idea Machine written by Claudia Azula Altucher and published by . This book was released on 2014-12-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HOW DO I TRANSFORM MY LIFE? The answer is simple: come up with ten ideas a day. It doesn't matter if they are good or bad the key is to exercise your 'idea muscle', to keep it toned, and in great shape. People say ideas are cheap and execution is everything but that is NOT true. Execution is a consequence, a subset of good, brilliant idea. And good ideas require daily work. Ideas may be easy if we are only coming up with one or two but if you open this book to any of the pages and try to produce more than three, you will feel a burn, scratch your head, and you will be sweating, and working hard. There is a turning point when you reach idea number 6 for the day, you still have four to go, and your mind muscle is getting a workout. By the time you list those last ideas to make it to ten you will see for yourself what "sweating the idea muscle" means. As you practice the daily idea generation you become an idea machine.When we become idea machines we are flooded with lots of bad ideas but also with some that are very good. This happens by the sheer force of the number, because we are coming up with 3,650 ideas per year (at ten a day). When you are inspired by an extraordinary idea, all of your thoughts break their chains, you go beyond limitations and your capacity to act expands in every direction. Forces and abilities you did not know you had come to the surface, and you realize you are capable of doing great things. As you practice with the suggested prompts in this book your ideas will get better, you will be a source of great insight for others, people will find you magnetic, and they will want to hang out with you because you have so much to offer. When you practice every day your life will transform, in no more than 180 days, because it has no other evolutionary choice. Life changes for the better when we become the source of positive, insightful, and helpful ideas. Don't believe a word I say. Instead, challenge yourself to try it for the 180 days and see your life transform, in magical ways, in front of your very eyes.

Download or read book This Is How I Roll written by Curtis Jordan and published by . This book was released on 2019-06-15 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THIS IS HOW I ROLL is a story about two characters named Big Baby and Cry Baby. They are infant brothers that are a metaphor for the two types of people that you will meet on the job, in school, and in life. This book will help you discover the type of person you are at the moment, and if that choice has paid dividends or run its course. One character is a metaphor for doing what is hard and necessary in order to be successful in life. He understands that waiting for success is not an option, because nothing comes easy unless you work hard for what you want. The other character is a metaphor for complaining (crying) when things don't go his way. He expects success to come by people doing things for him without learning how to do for himself. The characters are faced with the same choices we all face, but their actions are what separates them when it comes to success or failure. The crib metaphor is a direct correlation to the four walls of your job, in the classroom, or in your own mind. How you function within those walls will be key to your success or disappointment. The metaphor of the baby bottle is a subtle way that can steal valuable time that is hard to recover. If you are working at a job that you hate, school is difficult, and life is not going your way, maybe you should look at this from a different perspective. This Is How I Roll contains humor and real talk mixed into one book with a simple concept in mind. It's never too late to have the life you desire!
