Dyslexia: I Live with It
Author: Randymary de Rosier
Publisher: Balboa Press
ISBN: 1982205881
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 91
Book Description
It is really strange to live with the unknown and still know that there is something not right with you. I knew that I was intelligent and came from two families that had no slouches in the brain areas of life. I have strong genes from many generations of doctors, lawyers, inventors, teachers, plumbers, writers, farmers, adventurers, and women who were strong great leaders, and I wondered why I was not living up to the genes that must also be flowing through my veins. It always felt like my life was one step forward and two steps back. I do all right in the arts, but you cannot make it in this life without math and reading. I rarely got a grade higher than an S for satisfactory or a C+. Even with a higher education and the level of a senior administrator before quitting the business world, the feeling that I should be doing better never left my mind and ego until the day many years later that I learned the answer.

Your Life's Puzzle

ISBN:
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 154
Book Description
There are so many people who are suffering in silence. When they're in public, they put on a face as though everything is well. When they are long, they slip back into depression. We need to learn to get along, stop judging, and learn to love one another. That begins with the person you see in the mirror. The most powerful thing in the world is the human mind. People should take the words can't and impossible out of their vocabulary. If those two words are in your vocabulary, you will have a defeated mindset and you will fail before you get started. If you have faith, belief. Come up with a plan and take action. Anything is possible. The power is in belief. If you have the will, anything is possible. The purpose of the material in this book is to give the gift of hope. I want to inspire you people and lift them up. There are some people who are stressed out and depressed and have fallen into a dark place because of things they have experienced in life. Some of them have given up and stopped looking for a way out. If you are in a dark place in life, darkness cannot drive out darkness. It takes light to drive out darkness. We are bombarded with negativity from news and social media all day long. The materials in this book are meant to be a ray of light to drive out the darkness. The short stories in this book are about real people who've made mistakes. You can't make all your mistakes, but you can learn from someone else. Another purpose of this book is to encourage people to use their inner pain and hurt as fuel to push themselves toward their dreams. If you're not happy where you are in life, it's up to you to change it. You have to take responsibility for your life. No one is going to do it for you. No one is going to care for you more than you care for yourself. Here is a list of some of the topics that will be discussed in this book: learning disabilities, depression, loneliness, suicide, intuition, solitude, self-love, self-hate, self-worth, self-esteem, stress, and much more.
