Perfectly Yourself: 9 Lessons for Enduring Happiness

“People don’t fail because they want to fail,” Kelly explains. “People don’t go on a diet because they want to get fat. People don’t get married to get divorced. Whether we are dealing with health and wellness, relationships, finances, spirituality, or career, people want to advance. Personal development animates us, brings us to life. In many cases one diet is as good as the next. One financial plan is as good as another. People are smart enough to work out which are the best, but still so many fail. We have to ask ourselves: Why?

Lauren Graham Autobiography

John Irving’s A Prayer for Owen Meany is the inspiring modern classic that introduces two of the author’s most unforgettable characters, boys bonded forever in childhood: The stunned Owen Meady, whose life is touched by God, and the orphaned Johnny Wheelwright, whose life is touched by Owen. From the accident that links them to the mystery that follows them- and the martyrdom that parts them- the events of their lives from a tapestry of fate and faith in a novel that is Irving at his irresistible best.

Book A GOLFERS LIFE ARNOLD PLAMER WITH JAMES DODSON

Written by by Lawrence Goldstone

Birdmen sets the engrossing story of the Wrights' war with Curtiss against the thrilling backdrop of the early years of manned flight, and is rich with period detail and larger-than-life personalities: Thomas Scott Baldwin, or "Cap't Tom" as he styled himself, who invented the parachute and almost convinced the world that balloons were the future of aviation; John Moisant, the dapper daredevil who took to the skies after three failed attempts to overthrow the government of El Salvador, then quickly emerged as a celebrity flyer; and Harriet Quimby, the statuesque silent-film beauty who became the first woman to fly across the English Channel. And then there is Lincoln Beachey, perhaps the greatest aviator who ever lived, who dazzled crowds with an array of trademark twists and dives--and best embodied the romance with death that fueled so many of aviation's earliest heroes.

“Just be yourself!” People say it all the time, but how do we actually live it?

For more than a decade Matthew Kelly has been helping people discover the best version of themselves. Now, in Perfectly Yourself, he addresses the opportunities and obstacles that we encounter once we decide to ask life’s big questions: Who am I? What am I here for? Focusing on nine powerful and practical lessons, Kelly shows us how to find lasting happiness in a changing world.

We all have an insatiable need to grow and improve: Every year millions of us buy books and attend workshops in the hope that we will lose weight, improve our relationships, conquer debt, accomplish more in our careers, achieve financial independence, reach spiritual enlightenment, become better parents or lovers–the list goes on. We yearn for progress. And yet, many of us fail to achieve the transformations we desire.

The Invisible Wall: A Love Story That Broke Barriers Hardcover
by Harry Bernstein

This wonderfully charming memoir, written when the author was 93, vibrantly brings to life an all-but-forgotten time and place. It is a moving tale of working-class life, and of the boundaries that can be overcome by love.

“There are places that I have never forgotten. A little cobbled street in a smoky mill town in the North of England has haunted me for the greater part of my life. It was inevitable that I should write about it and the people who lived on both sides of its ‘Invisible Wall.’ ”

The narrow street where Harry Bernstein grew up, in a small English mill town, was seemingly unremarkable. It was identical to countless other streets in countless other working-class neighborhoods of the early 1900s, except for the “invisible wall” that ran down its center, dividing Jewish families on one side from Christian families on the other.

Live Learn Love Well: Lessons from a Life of Progress Not Perfection by Emma Lovewell 
Brand New
Paperback 
Genre: self help

Emma Lovewell is a star instructor at Peloton, a global fitness brand and media content company, but her journey to success began with a simple realization: Change is inevitable, but growth is optional. She chose to grow. In Live Learn Love Well, she shares the moments in her life that shaped her into the woman she is today―from growing up in a modest home amidst the affluence of Martha’s Vineyard, to struggling with her biracial identity and fitting in, both in the white community and the Asian American community, to health setbacks and relationship challenges, to moving to New York and striving for a career in dance and fitness.

Just as Lovewell is more than a fitness instructor, she’s learned that wellness is more than merely a physical condition. She shares the moments where mental fortitude shaped her outlook on the world and how the idea of “progress

From the Publisher:

Do you ever get the feeling that you are not enough? Not smart enough, not beautiful enough, not loved enough, not rich enough, not good enough... We all feel this from time to time, even the rich, the famous, the beautiful, the geniuses in this world.

God simply wants to help you become the person he created you to be¿perfectly yourself! You are enough. You have enough brains, talent, beauty, laughter, soul, ideas, and love to live the incredible life God created you to live. So what are you waiting for? Do something today that announces that a new phase has begun in your life. God and all the angels and saints in heaven are cheering for you.

Perfectly Yourself by Matthew Kelly

2 of the country's leading child psychologists, share what they have learned in more than 35years of combined experience working with boys & their families. They reveal a nation of boys who are hurting-sad, afraid, angry & silent. They set out to answer this basic, crucial question: What do boys need that they're not getting? They illuminate the forces that threaten our boys, teaching them to believe that cool equals macho strength & stoicism. Cutting through outdated theories of "mother blame, boy biology & testosterone," the authors shed light on the destructive emotional training our boys receive-the emotional miseducation of boys

Kindlon & Thompson make a compelling case that emotional literacy is the most valuable gift we can offer our sons, urging parents to recognize the price boys pay when we hold them to an impossible standard of manhood. They identify the social & emotional challenges that boys encounter in school & show how parents can help boys cultivate emotional awarenes

Carse is Emeritus Professor of History and Literature of Religion at New York University.  In this profound little gem of a book, he successfully conjures a new way of looking at reality that may change the way readers experience life.  Finite games are the familiar contests of everyday life, the games of business and politics, sex and war--games with winners & losers, a beginning and end.  Infinite Games are more mysterious and far more rewarding.  They are unscripted and unpredictable; they are the source of true freedom. Carse explores what these games mean, and what they can mean to you.  His chapters are filled with pearls of wisdom, and original insights into the nature of property and power, of culture and community, of sexuality and self-discovery.   
This copy is very good condition with tight binding and clean unmarked pages.  See photos carefully to judge condition.  Smoke free home.

Used Paperback Copy of The Autobiography of Malcolm X

ISBN: 978-0-345-37671-8

In the searing pages of this classic autobiography, originally published in 1964, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and anti-integrationist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Black Muslim movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American Dream, and the inherent racism in a society that denies its nonwhite citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time. The Autobiography of Malcolm X stands as the definitive statement of a movement and a man whose work was never completed but whose message is timeless. It is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand America.

The Autobiography of Malcolm X (As Told to Alex Haley)

by Belton Y. Cooper and Belton Cooper

Cooper saw more of the war than most junior officers, and he writes about it better than almost anyone. . . . His stories are vivid, enlightening, full of life--and of pain, sorrow, horror, and triumph."--Stephen E. Ambrose, from his Foreword
"In a down-to-earth style, Death Traps tells the compelling story of one man's assignment to the famous 3rd Armored Division that spearheaded the American advance from Normandy into Germany. Cooper served as an ordnance officer with the forward elements and was responsible for coordinating the recovery and repair of damaged American tanks. This was a dangerous job that often required him to travel alone through enemy territory, and the author recalls his service with pride, downplaying his role in the vast effort that kept the American forces well equipped and supplied. . . . Readers] will be left with an indelible impression of the importance of the support troops and how dependent combat forces were on them
