The speech is reprinted for the first time in book form in THIS IS WATER. How does one keep from going through their comfortable, prosperous adult life unconsciously' How do we get ourselves out of the foreground of our thoughts and achieve compassion' The speech captures Wallace's electric intellect as well as his grace in attention to others. After his death, it became a treasured piece of writing reprinted in The Wall Street Journal and the London Times, commented on endlessly in blogs, and emailed from friend to friend. Writing with his one-of-a-kind blend of causal humor, exacting intellect, and practical philosophy, David Foster Wallace probes the challenges of daily living and offers advice that renews us with every reading.

Download or read book Make Your Bed written by Admiral William H. McRaven and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on a Navy SEAL's inspiring graduation speech, this #1 New York Times bestseller of powerful life lessons "should be read by every leader in America" (Wall Street Journal). If you want to change the world, start off by making your bed. On May 17, 2014, Admiral William H. McRaven addressed the graduating class of the University of Texas at Austin on their Commencement day. Taking inspiration from the university's slogan, "What starts here changes the world," he shared the ten principles he learned during Navy Seal training that helped him overcome challenges not only in his training and long Naval career, but also throughout his life; and he explained how anyone can use these basic lessons to change themselves-and the world-for the better. Admiral McRaven's original speech went viral with over 10 million views. Building on the core tenets laid out in his speech, McRaven now recounts tales from his own life and from those of people he encountered during his military service who dealt with hardship and made tough decisions with determination, compassion, honor, and courage. Told with great humility and optimism, this timeless book provides simple wisdom, practical advice, and words of encouragement that will inspire readers to achieve more, even in life's darkest moments. "Powerful." --USA Today "Full of captivating personal anecdotes from inside the national security vault." --Washington Post "Superb, smart, and succinct." --Forbes

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one would have ever dreamed how by means of an innocent young man's discovery of his secret place at the tender age of twelve it could have affected Trophemus, his family, and his entire impregnable and sheltered country providentially for the rest of his two lives he would be forced to live. Trophemus was appraised by everyone in the entire nation of Tatonka to be a righteous, good, honest adolescent of the highest moral reputation. He was of unfailing morality but truly as tough as flint, a virtuous young man being of pristine character, well-respected, beyond repute, being required to live in an imperfect world! His father trained him from the beginning as a small boy to always listen to his God-given intuition within his heart for the good of all. Trophemus knew that his intuition would never tell him to do evil, and as long as he was directed to do good, he should listen. And listen he would! Trophemus did have much difficulty making sense of and discerning God's requirement to keep his secret place hidden from all. But time does have a way to envelop all our misunderstanding concerning God's direction in every decision we make. Mystery always surrounds us as we live a righteous, high-integrity human life. He knew well integrity is living the highest moral standard in our daily human life, whether anyone sees us or not, even when we are all alone. This kind of righteous daily living brings peace into one's heart. Peace has a source, and Trophemus was a man on earth full of peace and goodwill to all those in Tatonka who live righteous lives. But not all will live righteous lives as Trophemus gradually learns Schrum is a young man who personifies and emanates evil. Thus his two lives providentially whirl around this antagonistic creature on earth named Schrum. As the race begins in the first chapter by which a fourteen-year-old boy becomes a man, Trophemus has the highest expectations, and all is peaceful in the safe and secure country of Tatonka. Will this man-boy's becoming a man fulfill what destiny has been immaculately arranged upon him? Trophemus!

Book Synopsis Presidents and Political Thought by : David J. Siemers
Download or read book Presidents and Political Thought written by David J. Siemers and published by University of Missouri Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “What did the president know and when did he know it?” takes on a whole new meaning in Presidents and Political Thought. Though political philosophy is sometimes considered to be dry and abstract, many of our presidents have found usable ideas embedded within it. In this first comparative study of presidents and political theory, David Siemers examines how some of them have applied this specialized knowledge to their job. Presidents and Political Thought explores the connection between philosophy and practical politics through a study of six American chief executives: John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Woodrow Wilson, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Bill Clinton. Writing at the intersection of politics, history, and philosophy, Siemers combines his extensive understanding of political philosophy with careful research and analysis of individual presidents to produce provocative and astute judgments about how their understanding of political theory affected their performance. Each chapter examines a particular president’s attitude about political theory, the political theorists he read and admired, and the ways in which he applied theory in his activities as president. Viewing presidents through the lens of political theory enables Siemers to conclude that Madison and Adams have been significantly underrated. Wilson is thought to have abandoned his theoretical viewpoint as president, but actually, he just possessed an unorthodox interpretation of his favorite thinker, Edmund Burke. Often thought to be so pragmatic or opportunistic that they lacked any convictions, FDR and Clinton gained their orientations to politics from political theory. These and other insights suggest that we cannot understand these presidencies without being more aware of the ideas the presidents brought to the office. Siemers’s study takes on special relevance as the United States experiences regime change and a possible party realignment because, as he notes, Barack Obama has read and learned from political theory, too. Avoiding much of the jargon that often accompanies political theory, this book demonstrates the relevance of political theory in the real world, chronicling both the challenges and potentially rich payoffs when presidents conceive of politics not just as a way to reward friends and punish enemies, but as a means to realize principles.
