Book Description
Fulfilment is not in the other. It's not even in the self. Fulfilment is, in fact, a battlefield. Inside the War Room takes a closer look at this battlefield and the various battles we face with others, and within ourselves. Fighting these battles every day is challenging, but once conquered, we can manage our emotions and behaviours, learn to live and love freely and find inner peace. Inside the War Room reflects on how to close the gap between where our impact level is today and where we want to take it. It helps each of us in understanding what motivates and drives us, how to harness the power of the resourcefulness that's within us and help us to implement a greater vision for our ambitions. By learning how to fight the day-to-day battles of the interpersonal, we can come to be happier, more successful and more fulfilled. We can learn who we are, what we need, and what we can give. At once a memoir, a meditation and a treatise, Inside the War Room is a collection of reflections on interpersonal effectiveness that aims to enable the cultivation of a mentality around self-awareness, a sense of agency, self-motivation and social awareness.

Book Description
As I watched the darkness descend, the distinction between sky and land disappeared. The murky gray color covered the landscape as if a blanket were smothering my existence. It suddenly grew very cold, and although seemingly impossible, I felt more alone than my life ever allowed before. The darkness entered the room, and the depths of my emptiness felt its presence. It brought me back, back so far that I curled up in a corner much like the position I occupied in my mothers womb so many years ago. While familiar questions raced through my frustrated mind that night, I again realized my quest for an answer may never be over. I prayed over and over for God to take me quietly, without pain. I have suffered enough. My prayers went unanswered again. With the beginning of each day, we ask the same questions. We pray for answers; we beg to be shown the way to a better life. Alone and broken each night, we ask, we pray for a way outa way to stop the cycle of destruction, loneliness, and shame. Thousands of times I have repeated this conduct, but for so long now, my futile struggle moves me further away from that which I strongly crave to obtain. Each day, my conductalthough aware of it being ill-advisedbrings me to a dark and pathetic place. I cannot escape myself. I cannot forgive myself. Hopeless, hollow, and beat-up, I surrender once again in defeat. And so the cycle continues. My story is not unknown to mankind. It has repeated itself time and time again. So many have experienced it, and although much of it is now understood, it is often still unforgivable upon self-reflection. Only the alcoholic or addict has the ability, due to experience, to completely engage the true depth of its destruction and resulting emptiness although all in its path suffer relentlessly and often without recourse. This book documents, to the best of my ability, my road to addiction, destruction, and recovery.

Book Description
This book is collection of language from the perspective of an African American female. As a child she did not know she was poor until she took an economics class in college. Regardless of age most readers especially African Americans will marvel at how the words printed on the pages will move you to tears, spontaneous laughter, surprise and sweet memories of a life captured from individuals ranging in age from 14 to 97. Artie, named after an Uncle (a rich family tradition of naming children prior to their birth) continues to work and teach in the field of Human Resources with a mission to remain a life-long learner, coach, consultant and mentor. She lives in the Chicagoland area with her soul mate of 34 years (and blissfully counting) who thoroughly enjoys spending time with her adult children and ten grandchildren. People often dont realize that everyday lingo is a part of something greater. Artie Murray
