Download or read book When I Go written by Rainer Maria Rilke and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-08-29 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rilke's French poetry appears here for the first time in readable, musical versions. Largely unknown and rarely collected, these poems were written during the euphoria Rilke felt after having completed his greatest German works, the Duino Elegies and the Sonnets to Orpheus. At the same time, Rilke was growing increasingly ill with a rare, undiagnosed form of leukemia. He died just four short years into the production of these poems, and death appears in them as "a kindly, unfamiliar figure" to be faced with courage and surrender. Five series of poems are featured: Roses, Windows, Affectionate Tribute to France, Valaisian Quatrains, and Orchards.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “One of the best books I’ve read in ages! All the little things we women face on a day-to-day basis, the author describes in side-splitting detail. I couldn’t stop laughing!” Christy Phillippe ~ Dog Ear Publishing Editor Since when did ordering at Starbucks require an advanced educational degree? What are the proper rules for regifting these days, and how can I avoid regifting the candle my friend gave me last Christmas back to her? Why does Siri seem to have an attitude if I ask her the same question more than once? These are the musings of real-life, middle-aged-and-proud-of-it Madalyn Kinsey, who allows us to laugh along with her as she candidly reveals the weaknesses she has that we all know only too well. She belongs to a gym she’s never visited, and she shudders at the thought of running into friends at the grocery who’ll see the cookies, chips, and soda in her shopping cart. This candid and funny book is a breath of fresh air for women (and men) who want to enjoy the humor of a smart and bewildered woman as she not only examines her own foibles, but also the absurdities of the world around her. She may not have all the answers, but she makes examining the issues a whole lot of fun!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When do you know it’s time to go on a diet—when your bloomers become bikini or thongs? When they call out the winning lottery numbers, do you feel like they are announcing your measurements? Are you looking for the fountain of average size instead of the fountain of youth? When you turn the clock back in November, do you also turn the scale back a little? Women, do you consider putting on a sports bra an extreme sport? All these mean it’s time to go on a diet. While men cover this up by wearing wider ties and growing beards, a woman can only buy a larger size and cut out the tags and pray no one notices. Just remember, you’re not alone in this life-long battle, and I am here for moral support. Remember, “diet” also spells “edit,” not “punishment.” Most of all, remember you’re a beautiful person.

But Vashti can’t draw - she’s no artist. To prove her point, Vashti jabs at a blank sheet of paper to make an unremarkable and angry mark. "There!" she says. That one little dot marks the beginning of Vashti’s journey of surprise and self-discovery. That special moment is the core of Peter H. Reynolds’s delicate fable about the creative spirit in all of us.

In the end, a book full of darkness lands with a message of hope.”—The New York Times Book Review “This mystery will keep you guessing, and stay with you long after you finish. Dive in.”—Daily Skimm Anna Hart is a seasoned missing persons detective in San Francisco with far too much knowledge of the darkest side of human nature. When tragedy strikes her personal life, Anna, desperate and numb, flees to the Northern California village of Mendocino to grieve. She lived there as a child with her beloved foster parents, and now she believes it might be the only place left for her. Yet the day she arrives, she learns that a local teenage girl has gone missing. The crime feels frighteningly reminiscent of the most crucial time in Anna’s childhood, when the unsolved murder of a young girl touched Mendocino and changed the community forever. As past and present collide, Anna realizes that she has been led to this moment. The most difficult lessons of her life have given her insight into how victims come into contact with violent predators. As Anna becomes obsessed with saving the missing girl, she must accept that true courage means getting out of her own way and learning to let others in. Weaving together actual cases of missing persons, trauma theory, and a hint of the metaphysical, this propulsive and deeply affecting novel tells a story of fate, necessary redemption, and what it takes, when the worst happens, to reclaim our lives—and our faith in one another.

Download or read book The First 20 Hours written by Josh Kaufman and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-06-13 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forget the 10,000 hour rule— what if it’s possible to learn the basics of any new skill in 20 hours or less? Take a moment to consider how many things you want to learn to do. What’s on your list? What’s holding you back from getting started? Are you worried about the time and effort it takes to acquire new skills—time you don’t have and effort you can’t spare? Research suggests it takes 10,000 hours to develop a new skill. In this nonstop world when will you ever find that much time and energy? To make matters worse, the early hours of practicing something new are always the most frustrating. That’s why it’s difficult to learn how to speak a new language, play an instrument, hit a golf ball, or shoot great photos. It’s so much easier to watch TV or surf the web . . . In The First 20 Hours, Josh Kaufman offers a systematic approach to rapid skill acquisition— how to learn any new skill as quickly as possible. His method shows you how to deconstruct complex skills, maximize productive practice, and remove common learning barriers. By completing just 20 hours of focused, deliberate practice you’ll go from knowing absolutely nothing to performing noticeably well. Kaufman personally field-tested the methods in this book. You’ll have a front row seat as he develops a personal yoga practice, writes his own web-based computer programs, teaches himself to touch type on a nonstandard keyboard, explores the oldest and most complex board game in history, picks up the ukulele, and learns how to windsurf. Here are a few of the simple techniques he teaches: Define your target performance level: Figure out what your desired level of skill looks like, what you’re trying to achieve, and what you’ll be able to do when you’re done. The more specific, the better. Deconstruct the skill: Most of the things we think of as skills are actually bundles of smaller subskills. If you break down the subcomponents, it’s easier to figure out which ones are most important and practice those first. Eliminate barriers to practice: Removing common distractions and unnecessary effort makes it much easier to sit down and focus on deliberate practice. Create fast feedback loops: Getting accurate, real-time information about how well you’re performing during practice makes it much easier to improve. Whether you want to paint a portrait, launch a start-up, fly an airplane, or juggle flaming chainsaws, The First 20 Hours will help you pick up the basics of any skill in record time . . . and have more fun along the way.
