The Power of Purpose: Living Well by Doing Good

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Temes, Peter S., PUBLISHER: Three Rivers Press (CA), "The Power of Purpose" begins with a simple but remarkable statement: "The more you focus on helping others, the more you will succeed in reaching your own goals." Peter S. Temes builds on this fundamental insight to share a simple plan for living with the truest and most enduring kind of happiness. At the heart of "The Power of Purpose" are the "three levels of thinking." At the first level, we ask, Who am I? and What do I want? At the second level, we ask, Who do other people think I am? How do I look to them? But the real magic happens when we hit the third level, forgetting about ourselves and asking the questions that lend a powerful sense of purpose to our lives: How do others look to themselves? How can I help others become the people they want to be? To help us along the way, Temes, who teaches humanities at Columbia University, draws on the wisdom of great thinkers including Aristotle, Soren Kierkegaard, and Abraham Lincoln; the life lessons of great achievers ranging from Mother Teresa to Michael Jordan; and home truths he's gathered from his parents, his grandparents, and his three children. From all these sources and from his own life of great personal accomplishment, Temes identifies the essential knowledge that brings people happiness and success. He cites Aristotle's notion that happiness is not a psychological state but a moral one, resulting from doing good in the world. Temes also believes in the pivotal importance of trust and team-building in every area of life, from the family to the workplace to the street corner. "The Power of Purpose" is a map for finding the confidence and power, the opportunities and occasions, and--most important--the techniques and strategies for centering your relationships and work on helping others. It is a book with a point of view: the clearest path to your own success and happiness lies in helping others get to where they want to go. "From the Hardcover edition."

The Courage to Teach: Exploring the Inner Landscape of a

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Palmer, Parker J., PUBLISHER: Jossey-Bass, "This book is for teachers who have good days and bad -- and whose bad days bring the suffering that comes only from something one loves. It is for teachers who refuse to harden their hearts, because they love learners, learning, and the teaching life." -- Parker J. Palmer from the Introduction] For many years, Parker Palmer has worked on behalf of teachers and others who choose their vocations for reasons of the heart but may lose heart because of the troubled, sometimes toxic systems in which they work. Hundreds of thousands of readers have benefited from his approach in THE COURAGE TO TEACH, which takes teachers on an inner journey toward reconnecting with themselves, their students, their colleagues, and their vocations, and reclaiming their passion for one of the most challenging and important of human endeavors. This book builds on a simple premise: good teaching cannot be reduced to technique but is rooted in the identity and integrity of the teacher. Good teaching takes myriad forms but good teachers share one trait: they are authentically present in the classroom, in community with their students and their subject. They possess "a capacity for connectedness" and are able to weave a complex web of connections between themselves, their subjects, and their students, helping their students weave a world for themselves. The connections made by good teachers are held not in their methods but in their hearts -- the place where intellect, emotion, spirit, and will converge in the human self -- supported by the community that emerges among us when we choose to live authentic lives. BONUS: Includes an audio CD featuring a 45-minute conversation between Parker Palmer and his colleagues, Marcy Jackson and Estrus Tucker from the Center for Courage & Renewal. They reflect on what they have learned from working with thousands of teachers in their "Courage to Teach" program (www.CourageRenewal.org)and with others who yearn for greater integrity in their professional lives.

Coach Without a Whistle

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Deloriea, Wayne, PUBLISHER: Xulon Press, Let's begin by exposing some myths, lies and truths. As humans, we wear lots of hats. I have cowboy hats, baseball caps, fedoras and have even been seen in a do-rag. What I wear, if I wear a hat at all, depends upon how I feel in any given moment. Same for you? Perhaps you're not into hats. Perhaps you wear a particular sweatshirt, T-shirt or have several different pairs of shoes. Like band-aids, they cover sensitivities or hide scars. Psychologists refer to wearing masks, as it applies to covering parts of our personalities that we may not be comfortable with or that we may not feel comfortable with others seeing in us. Sometimes masks even blanket good traits that we fear might not be accepted by the particular group we associate with. What interesting creatures we are Christian Counselor, Author, Inventor, Entrepreneur, Master Fitness Instructor and Coach Coach DeLoriea is one of the more successful coaches in NASCAR.

Above All Things

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rideout, Tanis, PUBLISHER: McClelland & Stewart, Into Thin Air""meets The Paris Wife""in this captivating debut novel that weaves together the harrowing story of George Mallory's doomed attempt to be the first man to conquer Mt. Everest with that of his wife as she journeys through a single, quietly momentous day, awaiting his return. George Mallory was one of the last great heroic adventurers of the twentieth century, a man of uncommon athleticism and ambition. In Tanis Rideout's beautifully written and elegantly conceived novel, Mallory is revealed as never before in this fictional reimagining of his legendary final summit attempt. Through Mallory's perspective, and that of the newest member of the expedition, Sandy Irvine, we get a vivid picture of expedition life and the ever-present dangers they faced, from falls, avalanches, altitude sickness, and from their own human frailties as well. As we follow the men upwards, we also journey with them into their pasts. Alternating with the expedition's story is a day in the life of Mallory's wife, Ruth. While a war-scarred England waits for Mallory to reclaim some of the Empire's lost glory, Ruth begins to bristle at the burden of having to be the dutifully loyal wife to a national hero. It is through her eyes that we glimpse a different side of George, and what emerges is a portrait of complex marriage defined as much by absence as by great love. A heartbreaking story of obsession, sacrifice, and what we will do for love and honour, Above All Things introduces Tanis Rideout as a bold new literary talent.
