The Principle Centered Life by Wil Watson Pdf

Footsteps in the Rearview is an anthology filled with the typical manifestations of life's issues centered around love and hate, seeking what you are fleeing, supplication to those who would deny, acceptance instead of rejection. These creations are given life and magnified through the lenses of classism, racism, and placism. Footsteps is the non-linear documentation of a brotha's examination of his past by reviewing the writings of his past as he sought to maintain his identity. African-Americans of all ages, any station and both genders will see themselves in two or more of (simply)G's writings. Honest to a fault, problems inescapable to many Blacks are explored in a language fluent in sincere anger and fluid in its exploration for universal truths along life's emotion continuum.

Principle-Centered Leadership by Stephen R. Covey Pdf

An inspirational and practical guide to leadership from the New York Times–bestselling author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. Covey, named one of Time magazine’s 25 Most Influential Americans, is a renowned authority on leadership, whose insightful advice has helped millions. In his follow-up to The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, he poses these fundamental questions: How do we as individuals and organizations survive and thrive amid tremendous change? Why are efforts to improve falling so short in real results? How do we unleash the creativity, talent, and energy within ourselves and others? Is it realistic to believe that balance among personal and professional life is possible? The key to dealing with the challenges that we face is to identify a principle-centered core within ourselves and our institutions. In Principle-Centered Leadership, Covey outlines a long-term, inside-out approach to developing people and organizations. Offering insights and guidelines on how to apply these principles both at work and at home, Covey posits that these steps will lead not only to an increase in productivity and quality of work, but also to a new appreciation of personal and professional relationships as we strive to enjoy a more balanced, rewarding, and ultimately more effective life. “There seems to be no limit to the number of writers offering answers to the great perplexities of life. Covey, however, is the North Star in this field . . . without hesitation, strongly recommended.” —Library Journal

The Principle Centered Life by Wil Watson Pdf

The book presents thirteen paradoxical and thought-provoking principles that generate positive living. The following topics are discussed in an interesting manner, including real-life illustrations, humor, and insightful quotations: Living, Coping, Achieving, Overcoming Failure, Giving, Investing, Serving, Praying, Forgiving, Loving, Aging, Believing, and Worshipping. The fundamental thesis of the book is that we are not equipped for successful living unless we have some inner core principles to give us guidance. That's the symbolism of the compass on the cover. Just as an actual compass gives us reliable guidance in finding our way through an unfamiliar wilderness, sound principles guide us through the maze of choices we make on life's challenging journey. While the book is written especially for Christian readers, the principles are valid for everyone. The author writes from an evangelical Christian perspective, but the book is not sectarian. The sound Scriptural foundation presented resonates with readers of various religious persuasion. The thirteen chapter format is designed to make it appealing for small groups. At the end of each chapter, seven discussion questions are given to give guidance in applying the principle.

Principle-Centered Parenting by Phyllis Williams Pdf

Principle-Centered Parenting is not about controlling, manipulating or changing children's external behavior. It is about starting healthy spiritually based thinking that changes behavior from the inside out. Focusing on controlling or changing external behaviors is like trying to change a picture projected on a screen without changing the film in the camera. As children learn to love good, their behavior reflects their thinking and bad behavior dissolves like darkness when we turn on a light. We cannot teach a drowning person how to swim. Similarly, we cannot teach healthy behavior to an out of control child. It is necessary to stop destructive or harmful behavior with temporary measures, but long-term learning takes time, repetition, creative insight and willingness to listen to our inner spiritual parenting guide. Teaching behavior principles is similar to teaching math or reading. It takes loving patience and faith in a child's ability to learn. When children understand correct principles, their mistakes disappear. Parables like the Wheat and Tares explain the spiritual law of growth and development. The scriptures contain powerful stories that make spiritual laws practical and effective in parenting and daily family life. Principle-Centered Parenting is a guide for parents to tap into their own and their children's infinite spiritual resources.

Primary Greatness by Stephen R. Covey Pdf

From Stephen R. Covey—the late, legendary author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People—a set of principles for achieving a happy and fulfilling life of primary greatness. Many of us are hurting. We have chronic problems, dissatisfactions, and disappointments. Although we generally make it through the day, a lot of us feel overwhelmed by burdens we carry. We try to “lift the load of life” each day and sometimes it’s just too much. The idea of living a “great life” seems a distant dream. Stephen R. Covey believed there were only two ways to experience life: primary greatness or secondary greatness. Through his books and speaking, he taught that the intrinsic rewards of primary greatness—integrity, responsibility, and contribution—far outweighed the extrinsic rewards of secondary greatness—money, popularity, and the self-absorbed, pleasure-ridden life that some people consider “success.” In this posthumous work, Covey lays out clearly the 12 levers of success that will lead to a life of primary greatness: Integrity, Contribution, Priority, Sacrifice, Service, Responsibility, Loyalty, Reciprocity, Diversity, Learning, Teaching, and Renewal. For the first time, Covey defines each of these 12 qualities and how they can be leveraged and enacted in your daily life to lead you to success and happiness. Featuring his trademarked wisdom that is beloved and has inspired countless readers and leaders, Primary Greatness once again delivers classic Covey advice in a concise and reader-friendly way.

The 8th Habit by Stephen R. Covey Pdf

In the 7 Habits series, international bestselling author Stephen R. Covey showed us how to become as effective as it is possible to be. In his long-awaited new book, THE 8th HABIT, he opens up an entirely new dimension of human potential, and shows us how to achieve greatness in any position and any venue. All of us, Covey says, have within us the means for greatness. To tap into it is a matter of finding the right balance of four human attributes: talent, need, conscience and passion. At the nexus of these four attributes is what Covey calls voice - the unique, personal significance we each possess. Covey exhorts us all to move beyond effectiveness into the realm of greatness - and he shows us how to do so, by engaging our strengths and locating our powerful, individual voices. Why do we need this new habit? Because we have entered a new era in human history. The world is a profoundly different place than when THE 7 HABITS OF HIGHLY EFFECTIVE PEOPLE was originally published in 1989. The challenges and complexity we face today are of a different order of magnitude. We enjoy far greater autonomy in all areas of our lives, and along with this freedom comes the expectation that we will manage ourselves, instead of being managed by others. At the same time, we struggle to feel engaged, fulfilled and passionate. Tapping into the higher reaches of human genius and motivation to find our voice requires a new mindset, a new skill-set, a new tool-set - in short, a whole new habit.
