Make Something Good Today
Author: Erin Napier
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1501189123
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
From Ben and Erin Napier, the stars of the hit HGTV show Home Town, comes Make Something Good Today, a memoir that tells us all to seek out the good in life, celebrate the beauty of family and friends, and prosper within our communities because everything we need in life to be happy, is within our grasp. Long before their hugely popular TV show, an expanding family, or demolition day on their dream home, Erin began keeping a daily online journal to help her stay focused on the positive and count her blessings in life. She never expected that her depictions of small-town life in the tiny swath of Mississippi where she Ben call home would catch the eye of a television producer and set them off on the journey of a lifetime. Make Something Good Today offers a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the struggles and triumphs of a couple that America has come to know and love for their easy humor, adoring relationship, and ability to utterly transform a place into something beautiful and personal. This is the poignant story of how Erin and Ben took a small, tight-knit town into their own hands (literally) and used ingenuity, community, and authenticity to rebuild a once-thriving American Main Street. And how, by combining Ben’s carpentry skills with Erin’s design eye, Home Town is making it clear to us all that small-town living can feel as big as you make it. Complete with family photographs, Erin’s hand-painted sketches, and never-before-heard personal stories, this inspirational memoir reminds us all not to give up hope that great love stories are possible, big things can bloom in small towns, and there is always magic in the ordinary if you know where to look for it.

It Is What You Make of It
Author: Justin McRoberts
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 0785239812
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
Dare to move beyond “it is what it is” thinking and become an agent of love and redemption in your household, neighborhood, and workplace. “It is what it is”—a common phrase you hear and maybe even say yourself. But the truth is that there is not one square inch in the whole domain of our human existence that simply is what it is. Justin McRoberts invites you to embrace a new mindset: it is what you make of it. With warmth, wisdom, and humor, McRoberts shares key moments from his twenty-plus years as an artist, church planter, pastor, singer-songwriter, author, neighbor, and father, passing on lessons and practices learned about making something good from what we’ve been given rather than simply accepting things as they are. Thought-provoking but actionable, It Is What You Make of It declares that love doesn’t just win, mercy doesn’t just triumph, and light doesn’t just cast out shadow. Rather, such renewal requires the work of human hands and hearts committed to a vision of a world made right (or at least a little better). When we partner with God in these endeavors, we love the world well and honor the Creator in whose image we are made. We will not be remembered for who our parents were or where we were born or what our socioeconomic circumstances were. We won’t be remembered for our natural talents and strengths or the opportunities we were given or the challenges we faced. In the end, each of us will be remembered for what we made with what we were given.

Feel Something, Make Something
Author: Caitlin Metz
Publisher: Clarkson Potter
ISBN: 0593234952
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 161
Book Description
An intimate, quietly revolutionary guide to using art to process, understand, and collaborate with your feelings, from the co-author of My Body, My Home. Understanding our emotions is a lifelong process. Many of us were taught to avoid, suppress, or run away from intense feelings like grief, anger, and sadness. What if, instead of hiding from your emotions, you collaborated with them? Feel Something, Make Something is a guide to experimental, creative self-expression and reflection. Caitlin Metz believes that making art—whether it’s a detailed scribble on a crumpled receipt or a 100-day series of photos—gives your feelings a physical form and provides space to observe them from a distance. To help kickstart your creative process, Metz offers tutorials on zine-making (complete with a pull-out DIY zine to keep in your wallet), drawing, bodymapping, mindmapping, self-portraiture, and writing personal manifestos. This act of creation can be a form of release, documentation, ritual, conversation, or disruption. You may choose to sustain your feeling, to channel it into your work, or to shift it completely. To feel something and make something is both an invitation to take a breath and an opportunity to shift your perspective. Feel Something, Make Something is not about making perfectly polished works of art. The outcome of your art-making is arbitrary. The process is the work.

How to Make Something From Nothing

Publisher: Troubador Publishing Ltd
ISBN: 183628716X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 247
Book Description
It’s midwinter in 1968. As an eleven-year-old child, chopping wood in the back yard of his parents’ council house, John Moon made a decision which impacted his world forever: he was not going to live his life this way. In this delightful book, John tells his story, from the high-speed thrills of motor sport to the gradual building of his property portfolio. With candour, humour and sometimes brutal honesty, he shares the successes, the hard times and the out-and-out disasters. There was no rich relative waiting in the wings to bail him out, no influential contact offering him a lucrative career straight out of school, no university education. John started with nothing and went on to place himself within the top 1% of the UK’s wealthiest households. And the golden nuggets of advice throughout his book will show you how similar success could be yours. Life’s ultimate dilemma: will you live for the moment or plan for tomorrow? Whatever you choose, How To Make Something From Nothing – the story of an ordinary man who has lived an extraordinary life – is guaranteed to inform and entertain you.
