Book Description
"Yes, MONEY. Just what is it? Why is it important? What should it mean to our children? What do we do with it? What should we not do with it?" This Book is a message we Parents want to give our children about dealing with Change (Part 1). Then (Part 2) we apply that lite lesson to how we want our very young children to think about Money. Parents don't talk about money to our children for two reasons: (1) we are terrified we are not good role models when it comes to money and; (2) we don't know a lot about money and therefore don't have the confidence we can teach our kids about it. This Book is the help needed to get the conversation started. I've been a debt-relief attorney since 1989. By the time clients come into my office, it is a hard climb to alter many of our bad money habits. It's a little late in the game. We should start much earlier - because if we don't, someone or something will do the teaching for us. Haven't we been bewildered by a young boy's response to money being a hand gesture while saying, "Make it Pain on that (you know)". Consider this - the problem might be we didn't introduce our ideas about money to our children early enough. A University of Cambridge Study* reveals that adult money habits are set by the age of seven. Seven Years Old! "Attorney Jones has represented more than 4000 individual clients in financial management cases over the years and is uniquely positioned to tell us, not Just theory but the reality of what needs to be impressed upon our children and our community." - Lysander Woods, Attorney, Atlanta, Georgia. "I agree with the message in this Book - economic freedom is the beginning of True Freedom" - Nathaniel Turner, Los Angeles, California "It is clear when you control change and your money, you control your destiny. The Joneses show how to teach that lesson to our children early" - E. Duane Jones, Attorney/Minister, Atlanta, Georgia

Pages : 158
Book Description
Adversity. A fancy word for "tough times." While it's true that we all face challenges and hardships during our lives, it seems that more and more of us are faced with them right now. And, we all know that we're most likely to feel what others around us are feeling. If those around us are feeling lost, hopeless, and pessimistic about the future, then guess what? We're going to feel that way too. It's the "herd mentality" come to haunt us, again. We don't like to think of ourselves as members of a herd, but let's face it; our society can be seen as one. "Herd mentality," of course, describes how people are influenced by their peers to adopt certain behaviors, follow trends in action or thought. Currently the trend is toward 'negative thinking, ' which can be contrasted to the optimistic trend of the 1950 post-war era in America, where prosperity-for-all was thought to be both possible and probable. It was Friedrich Nietzsche, the German philosopher, who coined the phrase. These human herds could be divided into two groups. One group assumes a religious point-of -view, and their beliefs dictate their actions. The other group is influenced by the media and their actions are based upon what others perceive as 'right.' Today, 'right' thinking includes the opinions of media pundits, stock market analysts, and others who claim that the American Dream is dead, or at least terminally-ill. And where there's one negative thinker, there can be a dozen who are influenced by them. While Nietzsche saw these examples of group thinking to be reflections of weakness in the human social spirit, he did create the concept of the "Superman," that person who overcomes the values of the herd. That's what you're going to re-create yourself into; that Superman or Superwoman who rejects the common thinking of others in their reality. Only by discarding that negative thinking can you truly wake up to the opportunities around you and take advantage of them."

Songprints
Author: Judith Vander
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
ISBN: 9780252065453
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
Songprints, the first book-length exploration of the musical lives of Native American women, describes a century of cultural change and constancy among the Shoshone of Wyoming's Wind River Reservation. Through her conversations with Emily, Angelina, Alberta, Helene, and Lenore, Judith Vander captures the distinct personalities of five generations of Shoshone women as they tell their thoughts, feelings, and attitudes toward their music. These women, who range in age from seventy to twenty, provide a unique historical perspective on many aspects of twentieth-century Wind River Shoshone life. In addition to documenting these oral histories, Vander transcribes and analyzes seventy-five songs that the women sing--a microcosm of Northern Plains Indian music. She shows how each woman possesses her own songprint--a song repertoire distinctive to her culture, age, and personality, as unique in its configuration as a fingerprint or footprint. Vander places the five song repertoires in the context of Shoshone social and religious ceremonies to offer insights into the rise of the Native American Church, the emergence and popularity of the contemporary powwow, and the changing, enlarging role of women. Songprints also offers important new material on Ghost Dance songs and performances. Because the Ghost Dance was abandoned by the Wind River Shoshones in the 1930s, only Emily and Angelina saw it performed. Vander engages the two women--now in their sixties and seventies--in a discussion of the function and meaning of the Ghost Dance among the Wind River Shoshones. Thirteen Shoshone Ghost Dance song transcriptions accompany their accounts of past performances. The distinctive voices of these five women will captivate those interested in music, women's studies, ethnohistory, and ethnography, as well as ethnomusicologists, Native American scholars, anthropologists, and historians.
