by John C. Maxwell

Book -- Are some people born to achieve anything they want while others struggle? What is the real reason for their success? John C. 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. Bestselling author John C. Maxwell says that if you are like him, you feared it, misunderstood it, and ran away from it. However, he has learned to make failure his friend, and he can teach you to do the same. Maxwell takes a closer look at failure and reveals that the secret of moving beyond failure is to use it as a lesson and a stepping-stone.In Failing Forward, Maxwell will show you: the key main reasons people fail, how to master fear instead of being mastered by it, and positive benefits can accompany negative experiences. Filled with action suggestions and real-life stores, Failing Forward is a strategic guide that will help you move beyond mistakes to fulfill your potential and achieve success. Discover how to confidently look the prospect of failure in the eye and move forward anyway. 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.


Financial Peace Revisited: New Chapters on Marriage, Singles, Kids and Families

by Dave Ramsey

Item Number: 1135

Book -- Dave Ramsey knows what it's like to have it all. By age twenty-six, he had established a four-million-dollar real estate portfolio, only to lose it by age thirty. He has since rebuilt his financial life and, through his workshops and his New York Times business bestsellers Financial Peace and More than Enough, he has helped hundreds of thousands of people to understand the forces behind their financial distress and how to set things right-financially, emotionally, and spiritually. In this new edition of Financial Peace, Ramsey has updated his tactics and philosophy to show even more readers: how to get out of debt and stay out, the KISS rule of investing--"Keep It Simple, Stupid", how to use the principle of contentment to guide financial decision making, and how the flow of money can revolutionize relationships. With practical and easy to follow methods and personal anecdotes, Financial Peace is the road map to personal control, financial security, a new, vital family dynamic, and lifetime peace.
