I'm Blind... What's Your Excuse? by Dr Ron Lester Pdf

In my senior year of high school, my plan for the future was to be a chicken farmer in Arizona. Little did I know that God had a very different plan for my life. Over time, I have come to believe that God orders our steps, through tragedy and triumph, to serve Him as he sees fit." Life can throw many unexpected curve balls our way which affect our outlook on our ability to serve God. God doesn't want us to just survive our personal tragedies, He wants us to thrive under His personal care and direction. Ron Lester had the odds stacked against him. From a very young age he found himself working to help his family survive some very lean times. Because of dyslexia, he had a difficult time learning in school. Later, he found out the reason some things were so difficult for him was that he was gradually going blind. Despite all the obstacles in the way, Ron was able to surrender to God's plans for his life. He went from a farm boy who could barely read to a full-time pastor, eventually earning his doctorate. This is the story of how God directed Ron's steps through many difficult circumstances, showing that the impossible is possible with God's provision and power in our lives. Dr. Lester is a true inspiration to anyone that feel they cannot do what God has called them to do just because they have some kind of disability. God will make a way, as long as they are willing. Dr. Lester is an Associate Pastor in Tucson, AZ. He and his wife, Betty, have 2 boys and 8 grandchildren. Dr. Ron Lester has worn many hats throughout his lifetime as a minister and educator in Oklahoma, California, Arizona, and outside the United States. His life story is a labor of love by which he hopes to encourage readers to fulfill their purposes, no matter the obstacles they face.

I've Got Cancer, What's Your Excuse? by Anne Gildea Pdf

"Call it a mid-life crisis, but you reach a point where nothing makes sense anymore. Not the goals you set yourself, the years focussed on trying to achieve them, what was let go, what was gained along the way. You look back and think, Is that it? Then you get sick. And everything changes." This startlingly honest and often hilarious memoir from one of Ireland's best-loved comedians is told through the lens of cancer treatment and its aftermath. From the moment when she heard but didn't necessarily absorb the shocking diagnosis, through the months that followed, Gildea describes the mixed emotion of the journey, at once swept along on its tide and struggling to grapple with its effects. Through depression, comedy, Catholicism, chemotherapy, the bog, emigration, sex, mastectomy, fear, and love, I've Got Cancer, What's Your Excuse? takes a refreshingly irreverent look at life, the stuff it throws at you, and what you do with it, as it ultimately asks: "Did cancer save me?"

Sh*t Sandwich by Steve Stauning Pdf

No one succeeds without sacrifice... can we all agree on that? The problem is that most every book on the subject of success misses the big picture by ignoring all the little pictures. Think about it; while there have been plenty of books that claim to help anyone achieve the near impossible - like wealth beyond their wildest dreams - the fact is that most everyone on the planet has their sights set on something a little more realistic (and way more rewarding). That is, their goal is simply to live a great life. Living a great life is the epitome of success... can we all agree on that? Great! Based on the two axioms we've all agreed on: Living a great life is what we all want, and living a great life takes sacrifice. The interesting thing about sacrifice is that it's not the huge, bold, public sacrifices one makes in life that drive the most success; but rather the small, seemingly insignificant sacrifices we make (or avoid) every single day that have the greatest positive (or negative) impact on our life and the lives of those around us. I call these shit sandwiches. All successful people ate shit sandwiches to get where they are today. In fact, the more successful they are the more shit sandwiches they ate. The funny thing about shit sandwiches, however, is that the more successful you become, the more shit sandwiches you have to eat to stay there. Shit sandwiches are those little sacrifices, hardships, or unpleasantness we undertake every day to achieve some common or personal good; and everyone who wants to succeed eats them. As you'll read in this book, great employees eat a lot of shit sandwiches. Great leaders eat a lot of shit sandwiches. Great husbands, wives, brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, boyfriends and girlfriends all eat a lot of shit sandwiches. Successful people - in work or in play - all eat their share shit sandwiches. Are you ready to start eating your share?

Please Excuse My Daughter by Julie Klam Pdf

Look out for Julie's new book, The Almost Legendary Morris Sisters. From the author of Friendkeeping and Love at First Bark, one woman's hilarious, bittersweet account of growing up in a family of career-shunning, dependence-seeking women and her journey to a state of twenty-first-century self-reliance. Julie Klam was raised as the only daughter of a Jewish family in the exclusive WASP stronghold of Bedford, New York. Her mother was sharp, glamorous, and funny, but did not think that work was a woman's responsibility. Her father was fully supportive, not just of his wife's staying at home, but also of her extravagant lifestyle. Her mother's offbeat parenting style-taking Julie out of school to go to lunch at Bloomingdale's, for example-made her feel well-cared-for (and well-dressed) but left her unprepared for graduating and entering the real world. She had been brought up to look pretty and wait for a rich man to sweep her off her feet. But what happened if he never showed up? When Julie gets married to a hardworking but not wealthy man-one who expects her to be part of a modern couple and contribute financially to the marriage-she realizes how ambivalent and ill-equipped she is for life. Once she gives birth to a daughter, she knows she must grow up, get to work, and teach her child the self-reliance that she never learned. Delivered in an uproariously funny, sweet, self-effacing, and utterly memorable voice, Please Excuse My Daughter is a bighearted memoir from an irresistible new writer.
