Book Description
The Things I Wish My Parents Taught Me is an inspiring book that teaches the reader how to create a life you love. Bruce Ellemo, a father of two and former three time All-Canadian soccer player, holds a degree in economics from the University of Victoria in British Columbia, Canada. As founder and President of his company, Assured Lease.com, Bruce has negotiated over $100,000,000 to date in lease finance transactions across Canada and the US. Through his study of many of our greatest modern life philosophers, Earl Nightingale, Jim Rohn, Dr. Wayne Dyer, Napoleon Hill, Steven Covey and Deepak Chopra, to name a few, and his business negotiations over the last 20 years, Bruce has developed a deepened ability to understand himself and the people with whom he does business. "Most of us understand the importance of ROI (return on investment) when it comes to finances and business, but what I admire about Bruce is how he has invested in himself (physically, emotionally and spiritually) to have a more fulfilling and happier life, for not only himself and his family but for all of us. A must read if you wish to maximize the return on your greatest asset, which is you!" -Allan Eng, President Your Franchise Expert "The Things I Wish My Parents Told Me" is an amazingly inspiring and insightful read for anyone who wants to live a richer and more fulfilling life.

As he inspires those around him, so will this page turner!" -David Nickel, Founder SNAP Financial Group In this book, you will learn: - How to create the life you want - instead of just surviving day to day - How to be inspired - How to be at peace in your mind - How to increase your health and fitness - How to be happy "You will be reminded of the tried and true principles of living a great life and discover how to leverage the resources you have, to do more with less.

Languages : en
Pages : 800
Book Description
We all know that life can be hard, and working in the garden and trying to grow a garden is hard work. In our lives, if we want to grow spiritually closer to God, it takes work and effort in each of our hearts. The truth that God gives us is from his Word. It is the seeds that we need to plant in our lives and be willing to accept. The seed has to have water so it can grow. We need the active working of God in our lives so the truth can come alive in our lives. As we grow, we need be close to Gods will in our lives, in the light of His will for our lives, so we can continue to grow for him. As God prepares us to do his work, we must be rooted in the foundational truths that God has for us in his Word. Like a garden, we have to be aware of the dangers that come in and can contaminate our effectiveness for God. All the steps that we need to take so that we might be fruitful for God, to have a final product that is worthy before God when one day we meet him. I hope that you will take the journey and see that you too can have a beautiful garden for God.
