The world has changed dramatically over the last century and, with that change, so has the treatment of women in society. Those changes have not been uniform across the world, but at least in Western society, a revolution has occurred that has enabled women to not only survive but also thrive in the workplace and at home.

This story carries you through the life of a young man who was born in the sunny, beautiful Caribbean and migrated to the US to find a better life. He found trials, challenges, love, fulfillment, joy, pain, family, and the determination to make this world a better place in the process. He found the need to simplify his life as he provided for his new family. Like you, this Adam had to come of age in order to find "his" story while he contributed to the lives of so many others, to help them develop their stories.

The gun debate is a polarizing one in the US, in which both sides have strong proponents arguing about the legitimacy and the benefits to society of their opinion. Each side can claim scientific research and studies to back their claims, and data is available to prove their arguments. Luckily, we live in a democratic country, and if the general population generally holds a majority opinion, this may eventually be reflected in our laws; but until the American population becomes less divided about the issue, it seems the stalemate for gun control laws will continue.

Women are more overwhelmed than ever. With expectations at home and at work mounting, with their own goals and desires in life, and with demands coming at them from every corner of the world, women are feeling the pressure to be more and do more than ever before. They are told that they can have it all, and many women are striving for just that. That's where this book comes in. It contains a great wealth of knowledge, practical tips, and self-care ideas for women who want to be more productive, get more done, and have everything they want.

We men often have a difficult time making commitments to those special women in our lives. There is some virtue that drew you to that special woman in your life, and if you continue to see that value in her, why not commit all that you are and all that you have to her? This book is my attempt to sound an alarm for my brothers to love these women or leave them alone.

Todays "free-market" philosophy of one dollar, one vote has all but eclipsed the traditional one person, one vote values of our grandparents' generation. Our democratic and humanitarian concepts of "all for one, one for all" and "we're all in this together" have all but vanished. It's not my intention to start a political discussion about the rights and wrongs of national or international fiscal policies. I do not wish to delve into the wheeler-dealing of money markets and the distribution of corporate wealth.

There are rarely ever brand-new ideas. Inventions are often old ideas recycled, enhanced, and marketed in a new method and format. This is all called freewheeling innovation, and this is how society (and technology) progresses. You cannot be afraid to take someone else's ideas, improve on them, and claim them as your own. This "thievery" is almost the lifeline of innovation.

From my experience, and looking from a more objective standpoint, writing is a business or career path just like any other. We all learn basic components of writing when we're in school - reading, grammar, spelling and so on.

Motivation is both simple and complex. The definition itself is simple - the internal process and external factors that drive us toward a given goal. The ideas behind and the nuances within motivation, however, are complicated. There are professors out there who have spent years, endless hours researching and documenting motivation, trying to figure out what exactly it is that drives the human mind forward.

The Bible is chock full of stories and object lessons that we can apply to our daily lives. And there are a great many incredible commentaries, storybooks, Bible study aids, and other resource material that help elucidate what has been written. However, there are few, if any, that give voice to the voiceless in these stories. For example, have you ever wondered how the story of Jesus' birth would have read if the manger where He was swaddled were given a voice with which to speak?

Fresh Perspectives: Bible Stories Voiced by the Voiceless, Volume 2, part of the Endless Book Series, takes on the perspective of the "ground beneath the feet of the adulterous woman" written of in John 8:1-11. The Lord has much to say to all in the story of an adulteress, and the ground can give us a fresh perspective.

In this book, we'll get to the root of the problem that causes the fear of public speaking, increase your positive thinking, give you exercises to fine tune your voice and presence, and much more! By the time you finish this audiobook, you'll feel more at ease and comfortable speaking in front of small and large groups alike.

Now with social media, brands can be personalized and interact with their audiences one on one. Arguably, social media gives a face to normally faceless companies. In return, fans might feel they have a better opportunity to influence the company and improve its future endeavors. There's a lot to be gained for businesspeople and entrepreneurs through social media marketing. In this book you'll learn how to harness the power of the personalized platform.

#Focus: Heaven's in Your View was created to help all of us fix our gaze away from our inabilities to perform or cope with our battles, and direct our attention to the all-Loving, all-powerful God, who is ready and willing to take on all our burdens and create us anew.

This is a collection of 21 passages directly from scripture on the subject of prayer, with short and simple thoughts at the end of each. After reading each passage we should be able to answer the following questions as we meditate on that which the Lord has so graciously revealed: What watchword would you assign for the day's focus? What principle is embodied in each reading by which we should live? How does this all relate to our salvation?
