Download or read book Are You Serious? written by AJ Freeman and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2022-02-04 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So let me start off by saying, if “life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you gonna get.” (From the movie “Forrest Gump”) Some of mine are melted, because my life has not turned out the way I thought or intended it to be. Life has different challenges and obstacles that change us. This book is about some of the highs and lows of my life. The title “Are you Serious” was chosen because I believe that we sometimes take life too seriously. We don’t laugh enough at ourselves because we are too busy laughing at others to take the attention off ourselves. As you read each chapter you will see that my life has not always been easy. I had to endure some things because it comes from within. The upbringing of my Grandparent’s faith helped to sustain me while the fantastic four saved my life. I look back at some of the things I did and I have to ask myself, “are you serious right now?”

Download or read book God, Are You Serious? written by Kay Jemison and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-12 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is not your average, or even ordinary, collection of stories. Most young adults dream of the day when they are freed from the nest to take on the world and finally be independent! But for Kay Jemison, did this come at too high a price? A rollercoaster ride is typical but Kay didn't bargain on a never ending coaster of lies, bank robbery, attempted murder, and abusive relationships! Often stopping to ask God why her deck of cards was always stacked against her, she found herself wavering on getting to know Him. But something wouldn't let her give up on God or life, despite each negative experience. Her ambition led her to an encounter with God, hoping to get answers to her unanswered questions. Kay discovered that out of an overdeveloped sense of personal obligation she often repeated mistakes that risked her life, despite the danger signs. Enemies were camouflaged as friends; friends lacked commitment and integrity. Characters grew increasingly bizarre. God chose Kay, having His hand on her life, long before she even knew He existed. This story's heart is about perseverance and ambition for one's destiny while developing a relationship with God.

Book Synopsis Hell: Are You Serious? by : K.J. Parker
Download or read book Hell: Are You Serious? written by K.J. Parker and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-01-28 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in age when the fear of hell no longer holds sway in society and even in the church the subject is so rarely mooted it seems almost taboo. The reason for that, it is argued, is fundamentally the consequence of evolution becoming the accepted explanation for the origin of our existence: by undermining the biblical explanation for Creation it has undermined the whole of the biblical witness. By arguing that evolution is demonstrably false and, to the contrary, drawing on science that presents compelling evidence that the natural world has a Creator, Hell: Are You Serious? argues that we therefore live in perilous times: since we have good reason to believe that the Bible is true and in particular that the teaching of Jesus is true, especially as it is borne out in the lives and experience of those who put their trust in Him, we have to conclude that His warning of an eternal and final punishment for the unrighteous is a very real danger. Hell: Are You Serious? reaffirms the terrifying message of Jesus about hell and who goes there. Asking readers to be honest with themselves about what it is they believe and why they believe it, it makes an earnest appeal for them to consider the warnings of Christ afresh and believe.
Book Synopsis Humor, Seriously by : Jennifer Aaker
Download or read book Humor, Seriously written by Jennifer Aaker and published by Crown Currency. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WALL STREET JOURNAL, LOS ANGELES TIMES, AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER • Anyone—even you!—can learn how to harness the power of humor in business (and life), based on the popular class at Stanford’s Graduate School of Business. Don’t miss the authors’ TED Talk, “Why great leaders take humor seriously,” online now. “The ultimate guide to using the magical power of funny as a tool for leadership and a force for good.”—Daniel H. Pink, #1 New York Times bestselling author of When and Drive We are living through a period of unprecedented uncertainty and upheaval in both our personal and professional lives. So it should come as a surprise to exactly no one that trust, human connection, and mental well-being are all on the decline. This may seem like no laughing matter. Yet, the research shows that humor and laughter are among the most valuable tools we have at our disposal for strengthening bonds and relationships, diffusing stress and tension, boosting resilience, and performing when the stakes are high. That’s why Jennifer Aaker and Naomi Bagdonas teach the popular course Humor: Serious Business at the Stanford Graduate School of Business, where they help some of the world’s most hard-driving, blazer-wearing business minds infuse more humor and levity into their work and lives. In Humor, Seriously, they draw on findings by behavioral scientists, world-class comedians, and inspiring business leaders to reveal how humor works and—more important—how you can use more of it, better. Aaker and Bagdonas unpack the theory and application of humor: what makes something funny, how to mine your life for material, and simple ways to identify and leverage your unique humor style. They show how to use humor to rebuild vital connections; appear more confident, competent, and authentic at work; and foster cultures where levity and creativity can thrive. President Dwight David Eisenhower once said, “A sense of humor is part of the art of leadership, of getting along with people, of getting things done.” If Dwight David Eisenhower, the second least naturally funny president (after Franklin Pierce), thought humor was necessary to win wars, build highways, and warn against the military-industrial complex, then you might consider learning it too.
Book Synopsis You Cannot Be Serious by : John McEnroe
Download or read book You Cannot Be Serious written by John McEnroe and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2002-06-10 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A no-holds-barred, intimate memoir by John McEnroe—the bad boy of professional tennis. John McEnroe stunned the tennis elite when he came out of nowhere to make the Wimbledon semifinals at the age of eighteen—and just a few years later, he was ranked number one in the world. You Cannot Be Serious is McEnroe at his most personal, an intimate examination of Johnny Mac, the kid from Queens, and his “wild ride” through the world of professional tennis at a boom time when players were treated like rock stars. In this “bracing serve-and-volley autobiography” (The Boston Globe) he candidly explores the roots of his famous on-court explosions; his ambivalence toward the sport that made him famous; his adventures (and misadventures) on the road; his views of colleagues from Connors to Borg to Lendl; his opinions of contemporary tennis; his marriages to actress Tatum O'Neal and pop star Patty Smyth; and his roles as husband, father, senior tour player, and often-controversial commentator.
Download or read book You Can't Be Serious written by Kal Penn and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-08-09 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Kal Penn's unlikely career arc has taken him from nerdy American kid from an immigrant family in the New York suburb of Montclair, New Jersey, to world-famous actor, to White House staffer under President Obama, and back to actor again. Now, in You Can't Be Serious, he reflects on the most ridiculous, offensive, and rewarding moments that have stood out during his journey. With intelligence, humor, and charm on every page, Penn explores what it means to be the embodiment of the American Dream, as the child of immigrant parents who came to this country with very little, and who never expected to see their son get his big break by sliding off an oiled-up naked woman in a raunchy Ryan Reynolds movie. He also pulls back the curtain on racism in Hollywood and the constant reminders that he would never fit in. And of course, he reveals how, after twenty-five years fighting for success in Hollywood, he made the terrifying but rewarding decision to walk away from it all for a career in politics. Above all, You Can't Be Serious shows that everyone can have more than one life story. Penn bravely demonstrates by example that no matter who you are and where you come from, you have many more choices than those presented to you. It's a story about struggle, triumph, and learning how to keep your head up. And okay, yes, it's also about whether Kal really smoked weed in the White House with the former First Lady--because let's be honest, that's what you really want to know"--

Download or read book Serious Eater written by Ed Levine and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2019-06-11 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A hilarious and moving story of unconventional entrepreneurialism, passion, and guts." --Danny Meyer, CEO of Union Square Hospitality Group; Founder of Shake Shack; Author of Setting the Table Original recipes by J. Kenji López-Alt of The Food Lab and Stella Parks of BraveTart James Beard Award-winning founder of Serious Eats Ed Levine finally tells the mouthwatering and heartstopping story of building--and almost losing--one of the most acclaimed and beloved food sites in the world. In 2005, Ed Levine was a freelance food writer with an unlikely dream: to control his own fate and create a different kind of food publication. He wanted to unearth the world's best bagels, the best burgers, the best hot dogs--the best of everything edible. To build something for people like him who took everything edible seriously, from the tasting menu at Per Se and omakase feasts at Nobu down to mass-market candy, fast food burgers, and instant ramen. Against all sane advice, he created a blog for $100 and called it...Serious Eats. The site quickly became a home for obsessives who didn't take themselves too seriously. Intrepid staffers feasted on every dumpling in Chinatown and sampled every item on In-N-Out's secret menu. Talented recipe developers like The Food Lab's J. Kenji López-Alt and Stella Parks, aka BraveTart, attracted cult followings. Even as Serious Eats became better-known--even beloved and respected--every day felt like it could be its last. Ed secured handshake deals from investors and would-be acquirers over lunch only to have them renege after dessert. He put his marriage, career, and relationships with friends and family at risk through his stubborn refusal to let his dream die. He prayed that the ride would never end. But if it did, that he would make it out alive. This is the moving story of making a glorious, weird, and wonderful dream come true. It's the story of one food obsessive who followed a passion to terrifying, thrilling, and mouthwatering places--and all the serious eats along the way. Praise for Serious Eater "Read[s] more like a carefully crafted novel than a real person's life." --from the foreword by J. Kenji López-Alt "Wild, wacky, and entertaining...The book makes you hungry for Ed to succeed...and for lunch." --Christina Tosi, founder of Milk Bar "Serious Eater is seriously good!...you'll be so glad [Ed] invited you to a seat at his table." --Ree Drummond, author of The Pioneer Woman Cooks "After decades of spreading the good food gospel we get a glimpse of the missionary behind the mission." --Dan Barber, chef, Blue Hill and Blue Hill at Stone Barns

Book excerpt: “An atmospheric, multilayered, sex-positive romance.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) After an awkward first encounter, Birdie and Daniel are forced to work together in a Seattle hotel where a famous author leads a mysterious and secluded life in this romantic contemporary novel from the author of Alex, Approximately. Mystery-book aficionado Birdie Lindberg has an overactive imagination. Raised in isolation and homeschooled by strict grandparents, she’s cultivated a whimsical fantasy life in which she plays the heroic detective and every stranger is a suspect. But her solitary world expands when she takes a job the summer before college, working the graveyard shift at a historic Seattle hotel. In her new job, Birdie hopes to blossom from introverted dreamer to brave pioneer, and gregarious Daniel Aoki volunteers to be her guide. The hotel’s charismatic young van driver shares the same nocturnal shift and patronizes the waterfront Moonlight Diner where Birdie waits for the early morning ferry after work. Daniel also shares her appetite for intrigue, and he’s stumbled upon a real-life mystery: a famous reclusive writer—never before seen in public—might be secretly meeting someone at the hotel. To uncover the writer’s puzzling identity, Birdie must come out of her shell…discovering that the most confounding mystery of all may be her growing feelings for the elusive riddle that is Daniel.
