The Demand Principle: Your Invisible Guide To Easily Manifest Anything
Author: Peggy Mccoll
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781989756331
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
DEMAND is such a misunderstood word. It is a request in which you ask for what you want, knowing the outcome you desire will happen without question or further discussion... As if it is already done. You can have, do, or be anything you want within the laws of nature. Hearing that may seem outrageous, but it's true. Many of the accomplished people in the world have applied what you are about to discover inside this book. They created extraordinary results and live completely fulfilling, abundant and rewarding lives. You can do it too! All you have to do is know what you want and, demand it in a certain way, and demand more of yourself. "Isn't it offensive, bold, or even rude, to demand something?" you may ask. Many people recoil at the very thought of demanding what they want out of life. Demand is not about fighting against the grain, nor is it about force. Force negates. Demand is about perfect, natural, even super- natural alignment with your desire, every moment of every day. "Riches, when they come in huge quantities, are never the result of HARD work! Riches come ... in response to definite demands, based upon the application of definite principles, and not by chance or luck." - Napoleon Hill, Think And Grow Rich ENDORSEMENTS: "DEMAND... absolutely! Demand the very best from yourself. Quit playing around with your potential, with your life. DEMAND the best life has to offer. I DO and I love my life. Get this book and eat every word." Bob Proctor, Best-Selling Author of "You Were Born Rich" -------- "Peggy is a thinker, a doer, and an action taker. Life rewards Peggy and it will you too if you follow The Demand Principle!" Robert Pascuzzi, Best-Selling Author and Prosperity Teacher -------- "What I love about this book is that by the end of it if you're not getting the message, clearly, you're missing out on something amazing. The message repeats from chapter to chapter, and at first you think 'OK, I think I got it' but you keep reading, and suddenly... a light bulb goes on in your head and that is when you begin to truly internalize it. Only then can you say, I've GOT THIS - I'm ready to do it! It cost nothing to do, and you have everything to gain. Try it!" L.L. Tremblay, Author of "Seven Roses" -------- "Peggy McColl has done it again, this time showing us how to manifest anything. Demand is the key and Peggy has managed to put it into words where anyone can understand, and more importantly, apply her lessons. Pick it up right now! "Phillip B. Goldfine, Film, Television & Broadway Producer -------- "I have known Peggy McColl for many years. This book is the epitome of who she is. Peggy has always demanded the best of herself, and those that she does business with. She has accomplished so much in her life because of her mindset. In this book she clearly shows you how to demand for more in your life and then how to follow through to achieve it. This is a must read." Brian Proctor, VP of Business Development, Proctor Gallagher Institute -------- "One of the key principles of success is that you look to people who have demonstrated by their results that they know what they are doing and then do EXACTLY what they tell you to do. Peggy McColl has demonstrated by her results that she is a master at manifesting, and in this book, she tells you EXACTLY what to do. The principles and she, as a person, changed my life. Allow her to change yours!" Anders Hansen, Illusionist, Keynote-Performer, Change-Maker

From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say.

[Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column. This book is even better. It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together

Flipped
Author: Wendelin Van Draanen
Publisher: Ember
ISBN: 0375825444
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
A classic he-said-she-said romantic comedy! This updated anniversary edition offers story-behind-the-story revelations from author Wendelin Van Draanen. The first time she saw him, she flipped. The first time he saw her, he ran. That was the second grade, but not much has changed by the seventh. Juli says: “My Bryce. Still walking around with my first kiss.” He says: “It’s been six years of strategic avoidance and social discomfort.” But in the eighth grade everything gets turned upside down: just as Bryce is thinking that there’s maybe more to Juli than meets the eye, she’s thinking that he’s not quite all he seemed. This is a classic romantic comedy of errors told in alternating chapters by two fresh, funny voices. The updated anniversary edition contains 32 pages of extra backmatter: essays from Wendelin Van Draanen on her sources of inspiration, on the making of the movie of Flipped, on why she’ll never write a sequel, and a selection of the amazing fan mail she’s received. Awards and accolades for Flipped: SLJ Top 100 Children’s Novels of all time IRA-CBC Children’s Choice IRA Teacher’s Choice Honor winner, Judy Lopez Memorial Award/WNBA Winner of the California Young Reader Medal “We flipped over this fantastic book, its gutsy girl Juli and its wise, wonderful ending.” — The Chicago Tribune “Van Draanen has another winner in this eighth-grade ‘he-said, she-said’ romance. A fast, funny, egg-cellent winner.” — SLJ, Starred review “With a charismatic leading lady kids will flip over, a compelling dynamic between the two narrators and a resonant ending, this novel is a great deal larger than the sum of its parts.” —Publishers Weekly, Starred review

A fast, funny, egg-cellent winner.” — SLJ, Starred review “With a charismatic leading lady kids will flip over, a compelling dynamic between the two narrators and a resonant ending, this novel is a great deal larger than the sum of its parts.” —Publishers Weekly, Starred review

Book Description
“The College Solution helps readers look beyond over-hyped admission rankings to discover schools that offer a quality education at affordable prices. Taking the guesswork out of saving and finding money for college, this is a practical and insightful must-have guide for every parent!” —Jaye J. Fenderson, Seventeen’s College Columnist and Author, Seventeen’s Guide to Getting into College “This book is a must read in an era of rising tuition and falling admission rates. O’Shaughnessy offers good advice with blessed clarity and brevity.” —Jay Mathews, Washington Post Education Writer and Columnist “I would recommend any parent of a college-bound student read The College Solution.” —Kal Chany, Author, The Princeton Review’s Paying for College Without Going Broke “The College Solution goes beyond other guidebooks in providing an abundance of information about how to afford college, in addition to how to approach the selection process by putting the student first.” —Martha “Marty” O’Connell, Executive Director, Colleges That Change Lives “Lynn O’Shaughnessy always focuses on what’s in the consumer’s best interest, telling families how to save money and avoid making costly mistakes.” —Mark Kantrowitz, Publisher, FinAid.org and Author, FastWeb College Gold “An antidote to the hype and hysteria about getting in and paying for college! O’Shaughnessy has produced an excellent overview that demystifies the college planning process for students and families.” —Barmak Nassirian, American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers For millions of families, the college planning experience has become extremely stressful. And, unless your child is an elite student in the academic top 1%, most books on the subject won’t help you. Now, however, there’s a college guide for everyone. In The College Solution, top personal finance journalist Lynn O’Shaughnessy presents an easy-to-use roadmap to finding the right college program (not just the most hyped) and dramatically reducing the cost of college, too. Forget the rankings! Discover what really matters: the quality and value of the programs your child wants and deserves. O’Shaughnessy uncovers “industry secrets” on how colleges actually parcel out financial aid—and how even “average” students can maximize their share. Learn how to send your kids to expensive private schools for virtually the cost of an in-state public college...and how promising students can pay significantly less than the “sticker price” even at the best state universities. No other book offers this much practical guidance on choosing a college...and no other book will save you as much money! • Secrets your school’s guidance counselor doesn’t know yet The surprising ways colleges have changed how they do business • Get every dime of financial aid that’s out there for you Be a “fly on the wall” inside the college financial aid office • U.S. News & World Report: clueless about your child Beyond one-size-fits-all rankings: finding the right program for your teenager • The best bargains in higher education Overlooked academic choices that just might be perfect for you
