Book Description
We are now are own elders, as we must forget about your own personal platitudes whereas sometimes some lights that shines twice as bright, burns half as long, as sometimes we all tend to shine ever so brightly. For one moment, have you ever possibly & conceivably considered your way of thinking about the world is totally wrong. The main problem we all are facing is that so much research is based upon biases & personal opinions, and not pure research. This writer submits that a person or persons can never clam be a true intellectual unless they void themselves of personal perfidiousness & only concentrate on the true facts or fruits of pure research. For what is intellect without deductive & constructive reasoning, & not from personal prospectives, but from the collective facts as presented. For example; when I open a door & describe whats on the other side may be much different than another, When in fact, whats on the other side of the door, is whats on the other side of the door. The truth is, what ever is on the other side of that door, Is just that, does that make sense? When you assume, To a degree and for a moment, you always convey & show your ignorance in anything that you care to assume for a fraction of a second. As some relative assumptions may seem more creditable in the areas of intellect & reasoning, others are blind arrogance & opportunism coupled with the instincts to naturally & progressively inquire.

ISBN: 1101524383
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
The New York Times bestseller that gives readers a paradigm-shattering new way to think about motivation from the author of When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing Most people believe that the best way to motivate is with rewards like money—the carrot-and-stick approach. That's a mistake, says Daniel H. Pink (author of To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth About Motivating Others). In this provocative and persuasive new book, he asserts that the secret to high performance and satisfaction-at work, at school, and at home—is the deeply human need to direct our own lives, to learn and create new things, and to do better by ourselves and our world. Drawing on four decades of scientific research on human motivation, Pink exposes the mismatch between what science knows and what business does—and how that affects every aspect of life. He examines the three elements of true motivation—autonomy, mastery, and purpose-and offers smart and surprising techniques for putting these into action in a unique book that will change how we think and transform how we live.

The Undertaker's Wife
Author: Dee Oliver
Publisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 0310340861
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 155
Book Description
On Dee Branch’s first date with Johnnie Oliver, a fourth-generation funeral director, she knew she was in for a unique relationship when he had to leave “for just a minute”—and he came back to the car with a corpse. Over twenty years later, Dee was still in love with her charming southern gentleman when he passed away suddenly in 2007. Determined to carry on Johnnie’s work, Dee earned her mortuary science degree, only to find herself no longer needed in the family business. So Dee crossed the racial divide in the most segregated industry in America and joined the staff of an African-American funeral home as a single white woman. In The Undertaker’s Wife, Oliver draws from her wealth of experience to provide candid and often hysterically funny advice on dying well and surviving the loss of those who have gone before. Her insights on the common ground of grief, survival, and the ever-present faithfulness of God (to all of us, regardless of our race, religious upbringing, or socio-economic background) will help readers prepare for one of life’s only certainties—and do it with wisdom, grace, and a healthy dose of joy.
