Quay Ball will show you how she did just that, including activation exercises for your own transformation.>YourBeautifulExchange.com.Editorial Review: Quay Ball's new book is a powerful look at how even the most horrific situations have lessons to teach us and can bring us closer to God. Quay's tremendous faith shows through on every page of this book, and after you read what she experienced, you will also feel hope that a better life is possible.Quay's story is one of two terrible tragedies, either of which could have made a person lose all hope. She and her husband were involved in doing God's work, providing various forms of ministry. Then she discovered that her husband was watching porn, frequenting strip clubs, and even hiring prostitutes, and running up their debt by doing so. Heartbroken, Quay immediately packed up her children and left. Not long after, she, her children, and grandfather were in a terrible car accident in which her two-year-old daughter was killed. Quay also sustained numerous injuries and had a long road to recovery-both physically and emotionally.Thankfully, Quay had a strong faith in God. In these pages, she shares her story of how God turned her tears into joy. She walks readers step by step through her process of anger, grief, pain, and ultimately, acceptance, forgiveness, and self-transformation.The book's title refers to how God exchanged her crumbled marriage and grief over her daughter's loss into an opportunity to help bring others into the loving arms of Jesus Christ. She shares how she came to understand God's love for her on an entirely new level, and she reveals what God wants for people in their relationships with Him and with one another.Despite all her pain, in the end, Quay found that God did have a marvelous plan for her. She was drawn to the biblical Book of Ruth, as well as other parts of the Bible so she could learn what a healthy relationship would look like according to God's plan. What happened next is marvelous beyond words. She prayed that God would send her a husband who wanted the same kind of relationship she did, and eventually, He did, even though he lived in another state. Quay shares all the details of their wonderful courtship and how they put God at the center of it.Like Quay, I encourage you to "Surrender your love life to God and let Him be your matchmaker." Reading Your Beautiful Exchange can be the first step in healing your brokenness and finding love like you've never known before.- Tyler R. Tichelaar, PhD and award-winning author of Narrow Lives and The Best Place

An eye-opening introduction to one of the most audacious special operations forces of World War Two, written by a man who led them into battle. An ideal book for people who enjoyed SAS: Rogue Heroes and Band of Brothers. In the aftermath of the disastrous Battle of France and evacuation from Dunkirk, Winston Churchill told his military chiefs of staff that "Enterprises must be prepared, with specially trained troops of the hunter class, who can develop a reign of terror down on these coasts, first of all on the 'butcher-and-bolt' policy... leaving a trail of German corpses behind them." By the end of the month the Commandos had been formed from volunteers and were already implementing their hit-and-run tactics that would make them famous. Only the best recruits were sent; they had to be young, absolutely fit, able to drive motor vehicles, and unable to be seasick. One of the conditions of service, clearly laid down, was that any many might voluntarily return to his unit after an operation. Few ever asked to do so. Peter Young, who volunteered shortly after returning from Dunkirk, rose to become commander of the 1st Commando Brigade by the end of the war. In Commando he charts the development of this unique fighting force from its emergence through the course of its major operations, including: Lofoten, Spitzbergen and Vaagso in Norway, the invasion of Italy, the St. Nazaire and Dieppe raids on the French coast, along with numerous other operations. 'it reads like an adventure story; for that is what the Commandos engaged in - a series of grim adventures from which a high number did not return. Their adventures not only raised the alarm along the occupied coast line - they raised the morale of the Allied sympathisers everywhere, progressively, as the scope and the range of their operations spread from Europe to the Mediterranean coastlines.' Brigadier Anthony Farrar-Hockley Peter Young's Commando should be essential reading for all looking to learn more about this intrepid Second World War fighting force.

Лідери бізнесу звикли до жорсткої конкуренції. Без боротьби за якість, за нижчу ціну, за найкращий функціонал стійкого прибуткового зростання не досягти. Як наслідок, бізнес перетворюється на нескінченний бій, нагаду- ючи сутичку голодних псів.Леонард Шерман аналізує підходи всесвітньо відомих класиків мене- джменту - Майкла Портера, Брюса Гендерсона, Клейтона Крістенсена - і доходить висновку, що описані раніше методи та інструменти управління, як правило, не допомагають компанії подолати кризу або утримувати лідерство. Адже конкуренти мають таку саму зброю в цій боротьбі. Автор пропонує вибрати іншу стратегію. Коли всі навколо гризуться, як пси, варто застосувати підхід котів і досягти свого іншим способом.Користуючись прикладами створення великих продуктів останніх років, Шерман вчить уникати підводного каміння прямої конкурентної боротьби - бути хитрішими та креативнішими, сторонитися собачої гризні і застосо- вувати котячу стратегію, порушуючи загальноприйняті правила класичного менеджменту.
The Manuscript is part two of the second coming, a follow-up from the 1st Chronicle, The Theatrical Melodia of my life. Initiated by my inner thoughts and my fighting spirit to cave in on a concept based on my own theories of how I perceive society. I have crossed many paths and skipped a few momentums, for I wanted to live to see another day I did not want to surrender by foul play or fall into a trap of procrastination. What a sense of relief, when I realized I was just passing through, creating a temperament, while restoring my energy. Terrorized by the past, tempted by the views of those who assume hitting me and running will solve their issues, continuing on their path soldiering on like I never existed. While I was learning a lesson and creating a piece, I was being inspired by the spirit to release peace. During that whole ordeal, I could sense foul play, with a touch of adolescence and as Ideocracies go, I ceased to wonder why I reacted the way I did. Obviously, it had to do with power and the way the corrupt play it, it had me questioning their method all the way. Leaving a poison in the atmosphere, where the world went into chaos and it handed me the energy to follow through and feed off the synergy. As I took that lie all with a stride, I counteracted with a few, and stirred the pot too, to get a reaction for inspiration. Because I needed to follow up on a dream lay the law, report those who were misleading me. No longer have the power to trap pretend or connect in the end just redeem another conviction. The assumption became an interuption handing them a foundation, to give them power to interpret and follow up on another destination. All I handed was a statement, a stream of events that messed up the concept but not my head. Because that method was a presentation to help me get ahead and harm those who were creating a war in my peace. Returning at a later date, releasing energy following up on another recipe, I had to remain consistent, a reminder that my fighting spirit was being tarnished. Where I refused to waste another day on a lost cause. For corrupt were caving in on the concept to get through, leaving me on the brink of having a nervous breakdown so they can achieve their goals. What a scheme I had to undo before it took over my destiny right through, I needed to reestablish my point of view, read between the lines, and work at it at my own pace. Lining the corrupt up for another feast one where they no longer have the power to the peak. Planting a seed, left them stagnant, all so, I can succeed in lining them up for another feed. Before I got caught up in another feast, I needed to return the favor, make sure there was no follow-up to that present day, that made my light darken and the corrupt shine all the way. I resented the fact I was pulled out of my comfort zone to save those who had no intention of giving me a chance of redemption. Allowing those who knew to govern my spirit, right through, was giving me half a chance to relive my destiny. The other half was handed to them periodically where my luck changed. I was ghosted and they were working in unison feeding me doubt. I fell into a trap, what was considered bad then now, will be a normal trait in the future! It makes you wonder what the new norm will be in years to come from now! Having said that a human mind is a powerful tool and if you know how to use it you can get more done in a minute you just need to feed your mind and body by keeping them active. My method was a gamble and I tested my patience and got a taste of venom, well played, by whoever wanted to challenge my spirit all the way. I Hope The Manuscript Chronicle 2, kindly serves you well, for it is my inspirational piece, a key to sacrificing those lost souls that are dead to me!

L 'ART ORATOIRE, PAR OU COMMENCER? est un tour d'horizon sur les principes de base de la prise de parole en public dans toute sa forme. A travers sept (7) modules, il retrace de façon simple, accessible et imagée des techniques et méthodes que le lecteur- apprenant désireux de développer ses capacités en communication orale et écrite peut exploiter.Le manuel comporte des tests-mémoires (Questions à choix uniques (QCU) et questions à choix multiples (QCM)) et des exercices pratiques destinés à mettre l'apprenant dans des situations pratiques d'apprentissage à la fin de chaque module abordé. Enfin, pour susciter, booster voire aiguiser son Leadership et sa boîte à outils, des pages dédiées relatant l'histoire biographique de personnalités inspirantes ainsi que des pages de citations portant sur diverses thématiques offrent à l'apprenti-Orateur une aubaine d'enrichissement de sa culture générale.Dans le premier module du livre, l'auteur s'est donné le soin qu'il faut pour connecter l'apprenant (le lecteur) à la prise de parole en public. Titré "Notre rapport à la parole", ce module brise la glace entre l'apprenant et la parole en aidant ce dernier à revisiter et à soigner sa relation avec elle. Il faut croire que tout débute par là .Les trois modules qui ont suivi (module 2, 3 et 4) traitent des fondamentaux de l'art oratoire. Allant des trois champs de l'art oratoire jusqu'à la charpente du discours en passant par le triangle de base, l'auteur s'est appesanti à dérouler le b-a-ba des procédés qui donnent un fondement solide et inébranlable à l'apprenant qui cherche à être un orateur fin et appliqué en toute occasion de communication.Dans un cinquième module, la place est faite à "l'univers des idées pertinentes". Qu'est ce qu'une idée pertinente? Comment trouver une idée pertinente? A quoi sert une idée pertinente ? Toutes ces questions ont trouvé une réponse académique et pratique dans ce module. Mieux, l'auteur a fait ressortir les types de raisonnements qu'il nous ait donnés de rencontrer dans la communication écrite ou orale.Les deux derniers modules, à savoir les modules six (6) et sept (7) ont porté respectivement sur le langage corporel et les modulations de la voix. Par langage corporel, il faut voir une étude approfondie de la gestuelle, de la posture, des expressions du visage et bien d'autres éléments que l'apprenant mérite de savoir pour allier son corps à la perspicacité de ses propos. Quant aux modulations de voix, l'auteur a mis l'accent sur le décryptage des types de voix, des tonalités de voix, du volume, du timbre, de l'articulation et du rythme. L'art oratoire est une partition de musique et l'orateur doit avoir une certaine dose de musicalité dans sa voix, a-t-on dit en substance sur ce point.Acquérir ce manuel, c'est s'ouvrir à une aventure personnelle d'apprentissage méticuleux du savoir et de la pratique de la parole qui impacte. Un parcours strict avec des objectifs clairement définis et des points de bilan qui aiguillonnent l'apprenant à chaque jalon de cet ouvrage afin de le mener à bon port.

A gripping chronicle of the monumental fight against the Japanese in Burma during World War Two. The ideal book for people enthralled by the works of James Holland, Anthony Beevor and Max Hastings. In mid-December 1941 the Japanese invaded Burma. Within just a few months British forces were driven from their defences and forced to retreat hundreds of miles to the Indian border. How did the Allies under the leadership of William Slim, Orde Wingate and Louis Mountbatten overcome one of the gravest defeats the British Army ever suffered and drive back the Japanese? Michael Hickey's meticulously researched and brilliantly written book charts the course of the Burma campaign, exploring how the British, Asian and African troops fighting under Slim were able to engage and resist the enemy onslaught while simultaneously keeping lines of communication open with China and divert attention from the American attacks in the Pacific. Despite the fact that it was often referred to as 'The Forgotten Army', because its operations were overlooked by the contemporary press and even subsequent historians, Michael Hickey demonstrates just how brilliant and extraordinary this united multi-racial British Fourteenth Army was with soldiers, sailors and airmen from Britain, India, Nepal, Africa, Burma, America, China and many other countries. 'Michael Hickey, a soldier and a historian in his own right, has been to war and knows what it means. With his sure touch he describes the essential overall picture, while at the same time he deftly targets the significant battles and incidents, bringing the reader close to events as they happened from day to day. His informative book is welcome for the way it highlights the feel and tensions of battle in jungle and scrub plain, together with the personalities of the people involved.' Field Marshal William Slim 'captivating tactical-level war stories - useful descriptions of the Japanese soldier and his army, a detailed account of "The 'Sacking' of Slim," and a wonderful "Postlude" describing the post-war fates of key campaign leaders. The Unforgettable Army belongs in the library of anyone interested in miliary leadership and World War II campaigns.' Col. William Mendel, U.S. Army, Military Review
