Book Description
For a shy guy, life is an awkward adventure. Everyday is filled with clumsy conversation, and solitude is a familiar friend. As a lifelong shy guy, Michael R. Ebert has been there. But he’s never shared his secrets. Until now. In “Diary Of A Shy Guy,” Ebert bares his soul in never-before-told short stories that take the reader inside a shy guy’s unique mind. Spanning adolescence to adulthood, the timid Long Islander brings his biggest embarrassments to life in suspenseful fashion. From class participation to approaching girls to public speaking, the cringing never stops. But read with compassion, because shy guys are everywhere. And like Ebert, they have their own skeletons. Their own horror stories. And their own diaries.

Diary of a Company Man
Author: James S. Kunen
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 0762776277
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 261
Book Description
The funny, insightful, and inspiring story of a 1960s campus radical turned corporate PR man who finds himself, along with his fellow baby boomers, in a place called “Too Young to Retire and Too Old to Hire” James S. Kunen—author of The Strawberry Statement, an account of the 1968 student uprising at Columbia University—chronicles his adventures on the road to finding meaning in work and life. He traces his evolution from a rebellious youth who sees working as a kind of death, to a laid-off corporate executive who experiences not working as a kind of death, to a reinvented and reinvigorated individual who discovers something important and meaningful to do. The experience of falling victim to America’s recession-ravaged economy (and the people who run it) leads him along a career path far different from anything he had planned. After years of making a living, Kunen finally learns how to make a life. Diary of a Company Man will be a revelation not only to baby boomers but to young people trying to figure out what to do with their lives.

Book Description
Steamy, Graphic, Honest And REAL! Want to become amazing with yourself, and the Ladies? Well this book can get you there, quickly, through the real life and incredibly detailed seduction reports. The following is an INCREDIBLY valuable, unorganised mind-dump of seduction stories, old diary posts and epiphanies from author, dating coach, acupuncturist and internal masculine development coach Chris Bale, of www.masculineintent.com Chris is one of the worlds top International dating, sex, lifestyle design coaches, and has been playing in the land of women for many years now. After suffering with crippling social anxiety(at his worst stage he couldn't even buy bread in a shop), Chris decided he had to change his life. He was living in a self created stress everyday, and at one point came close to ending it all. "I chose to make a decision. I chose to take my own life into my own hands, as nobody was going to grant me confidence or abundance in any aspect of my life, other than ME" Chris spent the next 8 years blowing his old reality completely out of the water. At times, it was almost too difficult, but he moved through, learning with every failure. 'I went from sleeping with just 1 girl to the age of 21, to sleeping with over 400 at 28 yrs of age.

My journey through seduction ended up being nothing to do with women, and everything to do with facing my own fears and growing in life. Women and sex will not fullfill you. I learned that the hard(but fun) way. Now my passion is helping men to reconnect to their core confidence and guiding purpose. Women just so happen to go weak at the knees for a man who knows himself and what he wants." The following stories stem from a direct manifestation of all the seductive qualities, which Chris teaches step by step in his book: The Gentleman's Guide To Effortless Seduction: http: //www.amazon.com/Seduction-Gentlemans-Effortless-Meditation-Attractive-ebook/dp/B01D3GGK7O You will learn and grow endlessly just by reading the individual journal entries, which have went on to help educate and inspire thousands of men who have been following Chris's message over the previous years.

Author: Michael R. Ebert
Publisher: Author House
ISBN: 1425973795
Category : Comics & Graphic Novels
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
Like people, even stick figures fall in love. Through a series of straight lines, artists make thin-limbed figures do anything from hold hands to swap wedding bands. And just as easily, they can face hopelessness and heartbreak. In "A Stick Figure's Tale of True Love (Emphasis on 'True')," Michael R. Ebert creates a world of primitively-illustrated eggheads on a common quest to find true love. Without words, they convey the thrill of finding a soul mate through giant smiles and starry eyes. Excitedly, they jump from relationship-to-relationship in traditional storyboard fashion. But just like in real life, the young lovers don't always find their happy endings. And as readers, we learn that even the simplicity of stick figures can have meaning.
