Rising Above The Noise

Pages : 74
Book Description
Adjust your crown and rise above the noise of life. In a world filled with distractions and chaos, it is crucial that you maintain your stand and remain levelheaded. Just like a crown sits gracefully on your head, it symbolizes your inner strength, resilience, and God’s calling; we were created with a purpose, we are called to be limitless, the only limitation is created by you. In the middle of the noise and chaos, it is easy to lose sight of your true worth and potential. The noise can be overwhelming, drowning out your own voice and causing you to doubt yourself. But remember, you are the ruler of your own destiny, and it is within your power to rise above it all. That power was given to you by God! Adjusting your crown signifies a conscious decision to take control of your life. It is a reminder to hold your head high and embrace the Queen or King that you truly are. It is not about arrogance or superiority, but rather an acknowledgment of your self-worth and the importance of self-care; being confident. As you adjust your crown, you let go of the negativity and doubts that may have held you back, placing your trust in God. You release the opinions and judgments of others, understanding that their noise does not define you. Instead, you focus on your own journey, your own dreams, aspirations, and the Godly purpose given to you before birth.

Option B
Author: Sheryl Sandberg
Publisher: Knopf
ISBN: 1524732699
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • From authors of Lean In and Originals: a powerful, inspiring, and practical book about building resilience and moving forward after life’s inevitable setbacks After the sudden death of her husband, Sheryl Sandberg felt certain that she and her children would never feel pure joy again. “I was in ‘the void,’” she writes, “a vast emptiness that fills your heart and lungs and restricts your ability to think or even breathe.” Her friend Adam Grant, a psychologist at Wharton, told her there are concrete steps people can take to recover and rebound from life-shattering experiences. We are not born with a fixed amount of resilience. It is a muscle that everyone can build. Option B combines Sheryl’s personal insights with Adam’s eye-opening research on finding strength in the face of adversity. Beginning with the gut-wrenching moment when she finds her husband, Dave Goldberg, collapsed on a gym floor, Sheryl opens up her heart—and her journal—to describe the acute grief and isolation she felt in the wake of his death. But Option B goes beyond Sheryl’s loss to explore how a broad range of people have overcome hardships including illness, job loss, sexual assault, natural disasters, and the violence of war. Their stories reveal the capacity of the human spirit to persevere . . . and to rediscover joy. Resilience comes from deep within us and from support outside us. Even after the most devastating events, it is possible to grow by finding deeper meaning and gaining greater appreciation in our lives. Option B illuminates how to help others in crisis, develop compassion for ourselves, raise strong children, and create resilient families, communities, and workplaces. Many of these lessons can be applied to everyday struggles, allowing us to brave whatever lies ahead. Two weeks after losing her husband, Sheryl was preparing for a father-child activity. “I want Dave,” she cried. Her friend replied, “Option A is not available,” and then promised to help her make the most of Option B. We all live some form of Option B. This book will help us all make the most of it.
