The Warrior Within Me
Author: Issa E. Nesheiwat
Publisher: Palmetto Publishing
ISBN: 1649904681
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
The Warrior Within Me, The Real Secret, is based on a true story and testimony of rescued faith and trusting in God during the terrifying and uncertain times in Nesheiwat's life. By building endurance and resisting temptation through a series of trials, Nesheiwat was able to unlock "The Secret" by decoding biblical principles and through revelation. Unlike any other self-help book that leaves you with scattered pieces to the puzzle and misleading truths, Nesheiwat reveals the reality of the facts, The Real Secret. The Warrior Within Me, is a reflection of the biblical verse "He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world." 1 John 4:4. Atheists come to be by searching and not finding, or by not knowing. Agnostics feel that something higher than them may exist, but are left unsure as to what that higher power may be or if it exists. Finally, some Theists believe they have unlocked the secret of life. Nesheiwat will reveal The Real Secret. The common denominator of all human beings from the beginning of time, is the raging storm within their souls. This battle within one's self can be fought and won by applying The Real Secret. This book was written, after a quest for God began, and the answers came through that terrifying and uncertain seven-year period endured by Nesheiwat. Readers will understand how trust engages faith, the truth about fear, how frequency levels affect your life, and the importance of knowing biblical truth.

What if you could change your life--without changing your life? Gretchen had a good marriage, two healthy daughters, and work she loved--but one day, stuck on a city bus, she realized that time was flashing by, and she wasn’t thinking enough about the things that really mattered. “I should have a happiness project,” she decided. She spent the next year test-driving the wisdom of the ages, current scientific studies, and lessons from popular culture about how to be happier. Each month, she pursued a different set of resolutions: go to sleep earlier, quit nagging, forget about results, or take time to be silly. Bit by bit, she began to appreciate and amplify the happiness that already existed in her life. Written with humour and insight, Gretchen’s story will inspire you to start your own happiness project. Now in a beautiful, expanded edition, Gretchen offers a wealth of new material including happiness paradoxes and practical tips on many daily matters: being a more light-hearted parent, sticking to a fitness routine, getting your sweetheart to do chores without nagging, coping when you forget someone’s name and more.

Book Description
An eleven-year-old boy on a quest to impress his suddenly cute, longtime friend accidentally manifests a tiny internet guru into existence in this hilarious MAX novel! All class clown Farley Andrew Turner (yes, that spells FAT) wanted the summer before seventh grade was to give his image a little boost…and maybe, just maybe, impress his oldest pal, whom he has a secret crush on. But when Farley accidentally manifests a tiny internet guru into existence (think genie, but far more annoying and without any ability whatsoever to grant wishes), his entire plan goes sideways. Now, in order to rid himself of the four-inch tall pest spouting ridiculous self-help advice and doing yoga on his mouse pad, Farley must complete all “Seven Steps to a Whole New You!”—no matter how embarrassing they may be. Which is how Farley finds himself outfitted in too-small spandex and suffering through daily jogs with his super-athletic dad, attempting to read War and Peace, and agreeing to play toy guitar in his best friend Burt’s newly formed off-pitch boy band. Unfortunately, it only goes downhill from there… But hey, no one ever claimed the path to enlightenment would be easy, did they?

The Trade Me Project
Author: Demi Skipper
Publisher: Penguin

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 267
Book Description
Can you turn a bobby pin into a house? This is the question Demi Skipper set out to answer in May 2020, when she posted an ordinary bobby pin to trade on Facebook Marketplace. She had two rules: no trading with anyone she knew, and no spending her own money on trades. Twenty months and 28 trades later, she completed the final trade and took possession of a house. How did she do it? It wasn’t luck. Hard work, ingenuity, and a talent for negotiation were essential to executing the series of trades that led from the bobby pin to the house. Along the way she sent more than 300,000 messages, enlisted the help of strangers to drive vehicles across the country, and went deep into the world of “sneakerheads” in pursuit of the perfect trade, all while documenting her progress and amassing an audience of millions on TikTok. From the crushing disappointments to the surprising successes, Demi shares the behind-the-scenes stories of her first successful trading project and the life lessons she’s applying as she starts the process again. It’s an engrossing story for anyone who wonders, How did she do that? Could I do it too?

The Big Thing
Author: Phyllis Korkki
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 0062384325
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 180
Book Description
A New York Times business journalist explains why it’s important for people to pursue big creative projects, and identifies both the obstacles and the productive habits that emerge on the path to completion—including her own experience writing this book. Whether it’s the Great American Novel or a groundbreaking new app, many people want to create a Big Thing, but finding the motivation to get started, let alone complete the work, can be daunting. In The Big Thing, New York Times business writer and editor Phyllis Korkki combines real-life stories, science, and insights from her own experience to illuminate the factors that drive people to complete big creative projects—and the obstacles that threaten to derail success. In the course of creating her own Big Thing—this book—Korkki explores the individual and collaborative projects of others: from memoirs, art installations, and musical works to theater productions, small businesses, and charities. She identifies the main aspects of a Big Thing, including meaningful goals, focus and effort, the difficulties posed by the demands of everyday life, and the high risk of failure and disappointment. Korkki also breaks down components of the creative process and the characteristics that define it, and offers her thoughts on avoiding procrastination, staying motivated, scheduling a routine, and overcoming self-doubt and the restrictions of a day job. Filled with inspiring stories, practical advice, and a refreshing dose of honesty, The Big Thing doesn’t minimize the negative side of such pursuits—including the fact that big projects are hard to complete and raise difficult questions about one’s self-worth. Inspiring, wise, humorous, and good-natured, The Big Thing is a meditation on the importance of self-expression and purpose.
