Is Your Life Working? Most of us are trying to put together the jigsaw puzzle we call life without a very important piece. Over time this becomes incredibly frustrating.

From there, with his classic style of practical wisdom, he teaches us how to remedy this problem. When our bodies are hungry, our stomachs growl. When our souls are hungry, we become irritable, restless, confused, overwhelmed, exhausted, anxious, discontent, and tend to focus on the things that matter least and neglect the things that matter most.

I Heard God Laughing
Author: Hafiz
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 9780143037811
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 116
Book Description
From bestselling poet Daniel Ladinsky, a rich collection that brings the great Sufi poet Hafiz to Western readers To Persians, the poems of Hafiz are not “classical literature” from a remote past but cherished wisdom from a dear and intimate friend that continues to be quoted in daily life. With uncanny insight, Hafiz captures the many forms and stages of love. His poetry outlines the stages of the mystic's “path of love”—a journey in which love dissolves personal boundaries and limitations to join larger processes of growth and transformation. With this stunning collection, Ladinsky has succeeded brilliantly in capturing the essence of one of Islam’s greatest poetic and spiritual voices. “If you haven’t yet had the delight of dining with Daniel Ladinsky’s sweet, playful renderings of the musings of the great saints, I Heard God Laughing is a perfect appetizer. . . . This newly released edition of his first playful foray into Hafiz’s divinely inspired poetry is essential reading. . . . Ladinsky is a master who will be remembered for finally bringing Hafiz alive in the West.” —Alexandra Marks, The Christian Science Monitor

Book Description
Come, brother golfers. Let Phairway Phil lead you out of the Dark Ages of golf instruction—with its archaic advice and ambiguous language—and into the Bright Age. This guru of the game offers an alternative, enlightening approach that will simplify and clarify the process. “Swing,” the centerpiece of Dark Age instruction, “is an Evil word,” Phairway Phil preaches. “It must be banished from your mind and mouth forever more. It is the root cause of our misconception.” Instead, he is the first to introduce the concept of Coil/Strike. “All living things COIL and STRIKE,” he declares. “It is the basic movement of all life and the basic movement for all golf strokes.” Through step-by-step instruction and unique images—as well as LMAO stories to keep you smilin’ and energized—Phairway Phil describes the Coil/Strike approach in detail. All strokes are addressed, including chipping and putting. Simplify your game and pare down your handicap with this exciting, revolutionary approach. Let the fun begin! COIL/STRIKE has arrived as golf’s first creative nonfiction instruction book. Author Phairway Phil unites fiction with nonfiction in an original exploration of the genre—a groundbreaking introduction from Gatekeeper Press. Learning swing mechanics can make golfers loopy. But a coil strikes. At last, a brand-new concept to help millions of frustrated golfers. It’s a step-by-step method with merriment. COIL/STRIKE is meant for everyone who can meet the book’s easy Reader Qualification Requirements. Join the COIL/STRIKE revolution! READER QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS: This Golf Manifesto should only be read by right-handed, males who are 33 to 75 years old. NOT A BEGINNER. Read at least one instruction book or taken more than three lessons. You’re frustrated, bewildered, or resigned by failing to improve. If you can’t meet all the qualifications, please stop! I’m sorry, I don’t want you to waste your time and presumably your money. For now, I can’t say with confidence that reading Coil/Strike can help you─just qualified readers. THANKS FOR UNDERSTANDING.
