Failing Forward : Turning Mistakes Into Stepping Stones For Success
$19.99Are some people born to achieve anything they want while others struggle? Call them lucky, blessed, or possessors of the Midas touch. What is the real reason for their success? Is it family background, wealth, greater opportunities, high morals, an easy childhood?
John Maxwell has the answer—the difference between average people and achieving people is their perception of and response to failure.Most people are never prepared to deal with failure. Maxwell says that if you are like him, coming out of school, you feared it, misunderstood it, and ran away from it. But Maxwell learned to make failure his friend, and he can teach you to do the same.
“I want to help you learn how to confidently look the prospect of failure in the eye and move forward anyway,” says Maxwell. “Because in life, the question is not if you will have problems, but how you are going to deal with them. Stop failing backward and start failing forward!”

Balancing Work And Life
$13.99Life is more like a marathon than a sprint. Here’s how to stay well conditioned.
Bill Butterworth will make you laugh-and learn while you’re doing it! In the opening chapter of this powerful little book, Bill shares with you how, while running his rotund body in a nightmarish 440-yard dash, he learned a great lesson:
Life is much more like a marathon than a sprint.The attitudes and actions that result in steady success over the long haul are what make for long-term satisfaction and achievement. To experience this for yourself, you need to understand how to deal with life’s inevitable challenges:
*The “Hazies”-losing sight of long-term goals
*The “Lazies”-lacking the self-discipline to bring life back into focus
*The “Crazies”-allowing life to run out of controlEach of these can be conquered by three “clarifying triangles:” setting clear priorities, learning the discipline of endurance, and reaching the finish line through skillful pacing. It all adds up to a succinct and inspiring guide to balancing excellence at work with fulfillment in all of life.

Como Ganarse A La Gente – (Spanish)
$17.99Descripcion (Description): Las relaciones son el epicentro de todas las experiencias positivas en los seres humanos. Desde el momento en que nacemos, las relaciones nos marcan, en nuestras familias, en el campo de juegos, en la escuela y en nuestros trabajos. Maxwell, un comunicador maestro y experto en estudio relacional, hace que el aprendizaje sobre las relaciones sea algo accesible para todos. Los lideres mas sofisticados y los vendedores podran asirse de habilidades que los haran progresar y los novatos en relaciones aprenderan tecnicas que los transformaran en unos verdaderos dinamos de sus relaciones.
Relationships are at the heart of every positive human experience. From the moment of birth, relationships mark us – in our families, on the playground, at school, and in the workplace.
Maxwell, a master communicator and relational expert, makes learning about relationships accessible to everyone. The most sophisticated leaders and salespeople will pick up on skills that will make them even better. And relational novices will learn skills that can transform them into relational dynamos.
Maxwell’s secret is the people principles he teaches. Relationships work and build on five levels: Readiness, Connection, Trust, Investment, and Reward. On each level are principles that will change the way you view interpersonal relationships. Some are intuitive, such as the Mirror Principle: The first person we must examine is ourselves. Others may go against your instincts, such as the Confrontation Principle: Caring for people should precede confronting people. All of them are 100 percent practical!
Maxwell delves into issues that confront us in the workplace, at home, in church, at school – in short, anyplace you find people. And he reveals not only the benefits of developing healthy relationships, but how to actually do it. Working with others is the key to success in every area of life. As Maxwell says, “If you can win with people, you can win!”

Corporate America : Refreshing The Christian Business Man
$16.86I am hoping that this book will help encourage those of us who are especially involved in corporate America. I will be the first one to tell you that this book isn’t a really deep one, but it’s a nice easy read. I have found that it is very easy to get caught up in the busyness of life, in the politics of corporate America, so that we lose our focus on Christ. Hopefully by digging into the Word of God we will be encouraged and will change our lives, especially to be an example while we are at work. Once again, this is a simple reminder and refresher, so we can focus more of our energies on actually doing God’s will, not just reading about what we are supposed to be doing. Let’s remember that Christ makes us who we are, not our jobs and busy schedules.

What does it mean to teach English in the name of Christ? With thousands of Christians teaching English as a second or foreign language in hundreds of locations around the world, this has become as urgent question.Some Christian English teachers may consider their teaching simply as a means of service (combined with a bit of adventure). Others may see it only as a mean of getting a visa into a closed country for purposes of evangelism. Don Snow’s well-thought out details of how to bear witness, engage in ministry, serve the poor, contribute to peace, and build bridges of understanding between churches clearly show the special role in Christian missions that Christian English teachers have.

About The AuthorAdditional Info
With Who Moved My Cheese? Dr. Spencer Johnson realizes the need for finding the language and tools to deal with change–an issue that makes all of us nervous and uncomfortable.
Most people are fearful of change because they don’t believe they have any control over how or when it happens to them. Since change happens either to the individual or by the individual, Spencer Johnson shows us that what matters most is the attitude we have about change.When the Y2K panic gripped the corporate realm before the new millenium, most work environments finally recognized the urgent need to get their computers and other business systems up to speed and able to deal with unprecedented change. And businesses realized that this was not enough: they needed to help people get ready, too.
Spencer Johnson has created his new book to do just that. The coauthor of the multimillion bestseller The One Minute Manager has written a deceptively simple story with a dramatically important message that can radically alter the way we cope with change. Who Moved My Cheese? allows for common themes to become topics for discussion and individual interpretation.
Who Moved My Cheese? takes the fear and anxiety out of managing the future and shows people a simple way to successfully deal with the changing times, providing them with a method for moving ahead with their work and lives safely and effectively.

Also A Mother
$24.99As the twentieth century closes, the cry for equality between the sexes is provoking unprecedented conflicts between women and men in the workplace and in the family. Women of all colors and classes continue to carry out an enormous amount of indispenable, unrenumerated caring labor, which at once undergirds and is peripheral to human life, as men have defined it and therefore without value. Also a Mother protests this defined it, and therefore without value. Also a Mother protests this definition of work and value, and claims that beneath the everyday scuffles over gender roles and child care lies an essential religious crisis of work and love. Drawing on her situation as seminary professor and mother of three sons, Bonnie J. Miller-McLemore argues that Christian ideals of mother self-sacrifice and fatherly hard work, as they have been interpreted by church tradition and promoted in society at large, not only fail the lives of many people today, but misrepresent both the intent of God’s creation and the promise of the gospel message itself. She asks: How might theological doctrines of love, self sacrifice, creation, procreation, vocation, and community better respond to women and men who want to work in fulfilling ways and to love in intimate relationships, including those that involve raising children?
