A blueprint for success
Prior to this book, I enjoyed reading inspirational books such as Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich" and "Ask and it is Given". Law of attraction as stated in those books made sense, but they were missing the actual blueprint or a method of putting life into action. SuperSelf, by Charles Givens, is the book that fills this gap. Also, his ideas are supportive of "LOA" and I can see why he ...

She is given shelter in the small bathroom of a minister (who is of the tribe that is trying to kill her) along with several other women for several months.

Excellent resource!
This was the first book I bought upon arriving in LA to chase the dream, and I am very thankful for the wealth of information included in this Hollywood "bible"! As a matter of fact, I wish I'd read it way before I got here, as I would've been much better prepared for the business that is this show business. I highly recommend it to anyone who's ever dreamt of making it in Hollywood, especially ...

One of the best business books I've read
I was not expecting it this book to be so full of great information, and it far exceeded my expectations. Not because I didn't think it would be good, but because there was so much valuable information in the book. Information I have never seen before anywhere else, and of particular importance were all the different metrics that Ryan recommends that you need to track in your business. It's ...

Wonderful daily devotional
After listening to my Pilates instructor ending the classes with one of the daily devotionals each time, I couldn't help but get my own copy. I read it each morning. I get varying amounts personally from the book each day. Some days, the reading hits me and seems like it was written for me, reminds me to do something, keeps my mind open, etc. Although not every day applies specifically to me, I ...

Loving Life is a Verb
I bought "Life is a Verb: 37 Days to Wake Up, Be Mindful, and Live Intentionally" about three days in to 2010. I (like many) stumbled in to the new year still overwhelmed by the last. It took me a few days to realize- something has to shift. Who doesn't look for positive books or movies, or skim the self help aisle at Barnes and Noble when grasping for something, anything to help them shift ...

enjoyable, heartwarming, universal, read a story every night
I found this unique book of coincidences to be remarkable. While the authors relate it to Jewish principles, giving a moral or rule at the end of each 'episode,' their statements are applicable to those of all faiths. There were short, short stories, short stories and those a few pages long. But all showed the positive human spirit that exists in everyone of us if we give ourselves a chance and ...
