Book Description
Based on a Navy SEAL's inspiring graduation speech, this #1 New York Times bestseller of powerful life lessons "should be read by every leader in America" (Wall Street Journal). If you want to change the world, start off by making your bed. On May 17, 2014, Admiral William H. McRaven addressed the graduating class of the University of Texas at Austin on their Commencement day. Taking inspiration from the university's slogan, "What starts here changes the world," he shared the ten principles he learned during Navy Seal training that helped him overcome challenges not only in his training and long Naval career, but also throughout his life; and he explained how anyone can use these basic lessons to change themselves-and the world-for the better. Admiral McRaven's original speech went viral with over 10 million views. Building on the core tenets laid out in his speech, McRaven now recounts tales from his own life and from those of people he encountered during his military service who dealt with hardship and made tough decisions with determination, compassion, honor, and courage. Told with great humility and optimism, this timeless book provides simple wisdom, practical advice, and words of encouragement that will inspire readers to achieve more, even in life's darkest moments. "Powerful." --USA Today "Full of captivating personal anecdotes from inside the national security vault." --Washington Post "Superb, smart, and succinct." --Forbes

Book Description
"Are you ready to Man Up? According to national statistics, over fifty percent of you working men are unhappy in your jobs. In Star Man, author Gary Combs asks: Is it your work that really bothers you? Or, could you be wrestling with a mixed sense of purpose or conflicting priorities that keep boiling inside? If you are among the men who tend to barricade themselves in their man-caves, turning inward and seeking their own solutions, then what is really holding you back? Star Man tackles these questions head-on from a uniquely male perspective. Tracing five major areas of a man's daily life - love relationships, family focus, work life, community involvement, and health issues - Combs develops a balanced approach to ensuring that all five areas are given their rightful place. In each aspect, he moves you quickly to a self-assessment of your everyday questions: 1. My days are so full of "busyness" Who has time to think anymore? 2. I keep saying, "Someday I'll _____." Will that day ever come? 3. How can I make sure it does? Filling each area of daily concern with personal anecdotes and humorous man-talk, often poking fun at the way men speak (and the way women hear), Star Man concludes with the thought provoking point that every man is looking for some greater meaning. With conviction, Combs suggests that God is acting at the center of all that a man does, whether or not he realizes it. Star man concludes with the encouraging reminder and personal witness that every man is sustained by God's strength and His grace. It is in recognizing His divine influence and following His will that you find the answers you seek." "Star Man can help any man-especially those in their thirties, forties, and fifties-take the steps necessary to regain balance. Don't hesitate-let Gary's messages help you forge your path to a more balanced life today!" -Floyd Gilbert President, National PresbyterianMen(PCUSA) "Star Man will hit home for lots of men, especially those who feel uncertain about their priorities and need to get centered again!" -Don Douglas, Vice President of Church Growth, International Cooperating Ministries

Book Description
I would like this book to inspire many single individuals. Living a single lifestyle calls for temperance and patience however it comes with discipline. I experience it and have a testimony that I'm willing to share. I had to realize, I am God’s creation, a special Ruby who should be valued to the up most respect and care. With everything I had to overcome with God’s help and by trusting God. I made it through and on to the next level. I realize that true love does exist no matter how you might doubt it because of past experiences. Hold on to Hope and remind yourself “God is Love.” Always remember you are No One’s Second Best. You belong to God and He gives good gifts. Have patience and never give up on you.
