Publisher's Summary:

Mary Beth Sammons and Nina Lesowitz have received hundreds of thank you emails and letters from readers whose lives they have touched and helped - spiritual seekers, teachers, business people, cancer patients, parents, the newly bereaved, athletes, and many others. Building upon the foundational wisdom of the best-selling Living Life as a Thank You Nina Lesowitz and Mary Beth Sammons have developed a workbook filled with life-changing practices and encouraging advice to take listeners through a process of self-transformation and personal growth. The workbook-style format not only provides listeners with tried and true thank you techniques and practices, but also allows them to take part in creating their own.

The act and power of gratitude has a direct effect on our lives on a physical, spiritual, mental and emotional level. Studies have shown that living life with appreciation leads to a greater sense of well-being and happiness. The secret to a happy and fulfilled life may rely on focusing on all the good, rather than what is lacking or not going well at the moment. The Gratitude Power Workbook is a toolkit for this transformation.

Thank you Nina

Reading the workbook this morning boosted my gratitude practice.

I especially liked Nina's ideas about reframing negative statements into positive ones.

I also am grateful for Nina's inspiring videos.

After practicing unconditional gratitude for over 1 month I am happier--healthier--and

wealthier!! also physically stronger

Helps me to be a little happier each and every day. This workbook comes in a pretty little package but hasa BIG message about living a more grateful life and goes really deep in the questions, exercises and suggestions. It is one of the best gratitude books I have seen.

Try it and you'll be thankful..Truly.

Great Book!

The book has helped me to explore the ways gratitude works in my life. It has also provided a practical way to remember that the people and things in my life are not only enough but more than I could ever have hoped for.

Followup to another book I requested

This is a good followup to the book "Living My Life as a Thank You." I heard about the book on the radio and this is why I purchased it. I have not completed it but I believe it will live up to my expectations.

Title: Something to Live For: Finding Your Way in the Second Half of Life

Author: Richard J. Leider, David A. Shapiro

Narrator: Wes Bleed

Format: Unabridged

Length: 4 hrs and 46 mins

Language: English

Release date: 06-23-12

Publisher: Berrett-Koehler Publishers

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 6 votes

Genres: Self Development, Motivation & Inspiration

Publisher's Summary:

Drawing on ancient and contemporary wisdom, as well as modern research, Richard Leider and David Shapiro provide insightful ways of thinking and being that help us find meaning and purpose in the second half of life. This deeply reflective book uses a safari (referencing a trip the authors took to Africa in 2006) as a metaphor to show how the second half of life can be a journey of discovery.

In what may be their most personal book to date, Leider and Shapiro share dozens of moving stories, from both their own experiences and those of their safari companions, that offer sometimes surprising examples of lives well-lived, lives that exemplify the qualities of authenticity and wholeheartedness that they believe are essential to finding meaning and purpose in the second half of life.

There are many pathways to putting our whole selves into life, especially during the second half, and in Something to Live For, Leider and Shapiro explore many routes to vital aging.

allows good self assessment for 2nd and any stage(s) of life

...allows good self assessment for 2nd and any stage(s) of life; A serious review with focus on important questions and considerations

Inspiring Message

Good read and inspiring message. I recommend to anyone who is feeling stuck and needs a little jumpstart to regain an optimistic view of the future.

This was a disappointment that didn't live up to its promise

This was a disappointment that didn't live up to its promise. Compared to "Repacking your bags" the insight offered was little and repetitive....perhaps it will improve if I can be bothered to read it again.

Thought provoking

Very helpful and practical advice on how to live a productive and meaningful life in the second half. No cookie cutter answers, but lots of ideas and activities to help figure it out.

This is a great read if you're in search for meaning

Wow what a great read, I savored this book and would look forward to the next chapter each morning. If you're is search for meaning in the 2nd half of your life, this book is a must read.

Members Reviews:

TYPE 1 AND 2 ARE DIFFERENT

What disappointed you about Chicken Soup for the Soul Healthy Living Series: Diabetes?

For crying out loud, if you're going to write a book about diabetes, educate yourselves. Type 1 and 2 diabetes are caused by COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THINGS. Type 2 can often be reversed with diet/weight loss. Type 1 has NO cure, and has nothing to do with diet, activity level, or how much sugar you eat. It is when the body attacks the pancreas. The opening paragraph starts by praising the reader (me) for making diet and lifestyle changes to reverse my diabetes, as if it was my fault. I was severely underweight and had an amazing diet and was a runner when I was diagnosed with TYPE 1. Again, not caused by diet and exercise! This is a fluff piece about how you can reverse type 2, and nothing to support us type 1 diabetics, who are stuck with this disease for the rest of our lives.

What could the authors have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Educated themselves

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Unpleasant to listen to.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Disappointment.

Dramatically Raise Your Confidence And Self-Esteem Almost Instantly! It's Easy And Effortless When You Know How....

Here's just a sample of some of the titles of the tips from Instant Confidence: 92 Tips On How To Build Confidence To Develop Self Confidence And Self Esteem

About the Author: Back in December 2001, Gary Vurnum had to quit his successful banking career of 15 years for because of his seriously ill son. The trouble was - he didn't have any savings, couldn't work full-time, and didn't have any experience outside of the banking industry.

Gary decided that the Internet was the only way that he could earn a living. He began by sharing how he coped under very difficult circumstances, and, thanks to living off of his credit cards, managed to create his own motivational products and build a list of 20,000 subscribers to his ezine.

Over the last ten years, Gary Vurnum has become a recognized expert, not only on self-improvement, but also Internet marketing, and has spoken at many seminars including putting on many of his own. Gary is a published author of over 20 books of his own, and he now has his own publishing company - 23rd July - which has published books for a wide range of non-fiction authors. He doesn't have an office, any staff on the payroll, and doesn't ever have anything booked in his diary, and that's just the way Gary likes it!

Members Reviews:

Best Short Confidence Book I Know

Only thirty minutes long, this is an excellent short summation of different points about confidence. It's hard to imagine it could be done better, especially at this length. It may seem merely platitudinal to some, but not to me. I hope to see audio versions of Mr Vurnum's other books, too. I would snap them up. As a bonus, the narration is good, too. Kudos to Ken Maxon.

Summary

Very good fundamental list to build a positive mindset, now to start implementing them into my life...

It is the natural right of every human being to be happy--to escape all the miseries of life. Happiness is the normal condition, as natural as the landscapes and the seasons.

To attain perfect wisdom, to comprehend fully the purpose of life, to realize completely the relationship of human beings to each other, is to put an end to all suffering, to escape every ill and evil that afflicts us. Perfect wisdom is unshadowed joy.

Self-Development and the Way to Power

This is a very powerful book. It grabs your attention by the simple and straightforward way it lays out power-generating facts about how the individual can empower himself. It reminds you that you are powerful because power resides in you and he goes on to tell you the steps to take to take charge of the power in you. The book warns starkly that what you have and does not use you will lose, just as if you tied one of your hands and do not use it that hand will wither, or atrophy.

Similarly we can lose our self if we don't strengthen it with strong self belief, or if we allow others to smother our growth as seen in How to Discover Yourself 6 Examples.

What is very prophetic is the statement that we are evolving to the development of a sixth sense and the degree to which mind can control circumstances and dominate matter is far greater than is generally believed. If you want to strengthen self-confidence and to learn how to move from weakness to strength and to understand how to experience true happiness, study this b book.

Still a good read

This older book introduces some of the concepts of Theosophy that developed a following in the early 1900's. The primary concepts are very valuable to understand and use to become a productive and valuable member of society. The more mystical concepts of Theosophy can be troubling to encounter, but it is important to understand these concepts that remain present in our society. Regardless, the book is intended as a clear guide to those who wish to be more productive in life, especially in service to others and society.

Wonderful Book

Well Said. This book had been in my Kindle library for quite a while,but something suddenly made me read it and oh boy what a joy it's been. Very short read,concise and straight to the point. It has rekindled in me a newer desire to aspire more to develop my spiritual self. Exactly what I needed and I fully recommend it to any one seeking that push over the hurdle to spiritual mastery.

Quick and Great Read

The content of this book will mostly benefit the reader who is seeking to understand the nature of his spirit and how to use it to gain success. The last ten pages were the only content which was useful to me, since the others are all just opinion and personal beliefs about the author's spiritual laws.

A nice book, nothing that will blow your mind

This is a good book, and for free on the Kindle, you can't beat that. There isn't a lot of material that a student of self development hasn't heard before but there are some great tips hidden in the pages. The author uses the analogy of physical exercise and the importance of building your phyical muscles and mental muscles which I think is a great example. He asks you to really stretch the capacity of both.

Title: Poise: How to Attain It

Author: D Stark

Narrator: D Stark

Format: Unabridged

Length: 2 hrs and 57 mins

Language: English

Release date: 10-18-11

Publisher: M-Y Books Ltd

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes

Genres: Self Development, Motivation & Inspiration

Publisher's Summary:

All efforts directed toward the correcting of temperamental or mental blemishes or defects and nervous conditions are of benefit to humanity. In producing this book the author's purpose was to help mankind to overcome these weaknesses, which are a serious impediment to mental development, and hinder personal advancement and general progress. The aim of the publishers in issuing this translation is to put into the hands of those who wish to overcome their failings, become masters of themselves, and command the attention and respect of others, a work that has been thoroughly tested abroad and one that will be found of exceptional service in attaining the end in view--the securing of a perfect balance.

This book is written in two parts. The first points to the need of Poise in daily life, indicates the obstacles to be overcome, and discusses the effects of Poise on personal efficiency. The second instructs the reader how to secure that evenness of temperament which is the chief characteristic of Poise. It includes, in addition, a series of practical physical exercises to be used in acquiring Poise. If such a work as this is to do good, if the reader really wishes to benefit by the advice that it gives him, it must be read thoughtfully and diligently, not fitfully and forgetfully, and the reader most steadfastly keep before him the maxim of the author--Poise is a power derived from the Mastery of Self.

Resumen del editor:

The Machinery of the Mind - If you were going to put some life back into the society, if you were to put the society back together again so that it did have some wish to survive, if you were going to make life a little bit better, really all youd have to do would be to put Man a little more in control of his actions and reactions. -L. Ron Hubbard

Everyone performs certain routine tasks automatically. Driving a car would be awkward indeed if one had to think newly of every tiny procedure. But what happens when someone puts a whole field of thought and action on automatic? His education, for example? Or his work? Or even his entire life?

The answers are here and they open a completely new perspective on the mind. To the degree an individual has withdrawn from participation in an area of life, he substitutes an automatic mental mechanism for himself. Here, then, are these mental mechanisms and exactly how they undermine an individuals power of decision. Toward returning him that power, Ron details how they can be recognized in a persons thoughts, acts and conversation, and thus detected in both oneself and others. And that is a crucial ability. For just as a real machine can spring free of its operator and start running out of control, so can mental mechanisms. When that happensbeware! For, by controlling entire behavior patterns, the machines can actually deprive an individual of the ability to think and act for himself, without his even suspecting it.

Fortunately, there is a remedy and it lies in what Ron calls the very central pin of existence, which every living being possesses and no mental mechanism can withstand. Thus one can gain control of the machinery of the mind and, by so doing, actually take charge of ones own life.

Resumen del editor:

"Any work that I am doing or have done, and that you are doing, has a tremendously long and interesting background. You are delving with and working with the oldest civilized factors known to Man."

-L. Ron Hubbard

Since time immemorial, Man has sought to liberate the soul from the body and so achieve immortality. In this account of the religious heritage that stands behind Scientology, Ron recounts the extraordinary story of Mans epic quest for a way to attain that goal. Moreover, as the details unfold of the great philosophies' and religions' swift expansion across a then barbaric world - civilizing East and West alike - Ron isolates not only the very reason and substance of religious influence, but also the common purpose uniting all religious thinking.

Against the backdrop of this epic drama, Ron reveals how Scientology, drawing from and building upon the aspirations and achievements of 10,000 years of thinking men, represents an historic, long sought triumph for Man. For with its discoveries and technology comes the culmination of Mans oldest quest and the accomplishment, in the here and now, of his most enduring dreamthe freeing of the soul by wisdom.

Here, then, is how East and West, science and religion, have finally come together.
