Book Description
Discover the tools of leadership to revolutionize your workplace. Tim Stevens traveled an alternative road—leaving high school and immediately joining a national non-profit organization. He rose quickly through the ranks of leadership, but nine years later left it all behind to help an upstart church get its footing. During the 20 years Stevens served as Executive Pastor at Granger Community Church near South Bend, Indiana, the ministry grew from a congregation of 300 to more than 5,000; from a staff of five to more than 130; with a preschool, restaurant, three campuses and more than 1,800 new churches planted in southern India. Leaders learn by leading. Stevens knows that creating a healthy and successful organization requires throwing out the conventional instruction manual and writing one that balances practical lessons, spiritual truths, and twenty-first century realities—exactly what you will find in Fairness Is Overrated. Stevens, now an executive with the Vanderbloemen Search Group, takes his lifetime of service and dispenses with conventional wisdom. Short, powerful chapters end with actionable discussion questions. Four pillars hold up every successful leader: Be a person of integrity. Identify the right people around you. Build a great culture. Lead through crisis. This is a manual of doing, not talking. No fluff, no stale inspirational platitudes. It’s time to move past planning and kick-start Monday into action.

Book Description
108 Days of Mindfulness Practice mindfulness and unleash your power to respond rather than react and to act intentionally rather than habitually. This book presents mindfulness teachings via short insights or meditations. All too often we “forget” to be present. We neglect being mindful when eating, listening, speaking, working, studying, seeing the sunrise and the sunset, being with friends or sipping a cup of tea. As a result, we fail to live our lives to the fullest potential and experience the joy of living. The Buddha, who was the planet’s most prominent practitioner of mindfulness, taught this technique to others. Think Like the Buddha offers reflections for 108 days of mindfulness. The stories and lessons are brought together to provide insight, information, instruction and inspiration for the reader to cultivate this practice daily. The book is very “user friendly”, immediately applicable regardless of any background in Buddhism, and is thus useful to complete beginners. The stories and teachings in this book cover a wide variety of specific topics—divorce, illness, losing a job, determining a course of action, etc. All these meditations are infused with the message of compassion that all today are hungering for. Victor M. Parachin, M. Div., is the director of the Tulsa Yoga Meditation Center and is a certified Ayurveda practitioner, wellness consultant, meditation teacher and yoga instructor. He is the author of a dozen books about both Eastern and Western spiritual practices. Parachin has maintained a personal meditation practice for nearly 30 years, long before meditation and mindfulness became part of the popular vocabulary.
