Lorraine is a quiet, meticulous thinker that has gone her whole life blaming her father for her childhood torment and her failed relationships. She has hid behind blame, regret and doubt, building walls around herself in order to remain invisible - in the hopes of alluding hurt and heartbreak again. Those same walls come crashing down as she finds herself facing a judge who sentences her to mandatory therapy. Lorraine's therapist helps her break through to the truth of her paralyzing fear, and forces her to stop pointing her fingers in blame, take responsibility for her a waiting destiny and step off the edge into life. Winston is a high level executive making big moves and seemingly has it all together. He, however, is convinced no one would ever understand the pain he has silently experienced and the tears he has cried for the love he lost. He is too ashamed to reach out for help and too afraid that everyone deserves forgiveness, but him. A chance encounter on an elevator ignites his heart. This leads him to an old friend that will help him see that forgiveness may be the very thing that will give Winston the second chance he has been praying for.Living in fear is a slow long drawn straight line to nothing. We struggle to set goals and to create a realistic dream; too afraid to live. We choose fantasies filled with knights in shining armor coming to rescue us from our sin and personal state of woe. We decide not to change on our own, knowing what's necessary to complete our purpose. When does it end? When do we stop living in fear of the unknown or fear of success or fear of inadequacy? When do we take the leap of faith, when do we take the opportunity to step off the edge?

James was only five years old and travelling home to Devon after holiday with his family in Scotland in 1986, when tragedy struck. The car was involved in a serious accident just outside Bristol, leaving him fighting for survival on life support. When he emerged from his coma, doctors discovered that he was seriously brain damaged, leaving the left side paralysed. Within the blink of an eye James had been transformed from a gregarious, fun-loving little boy into a rag doll. But with a lot of loving support, he began the long and difficult road to recovery. His attitude was inspirational, and for years he threw himself into rehabilitation. As James grew up he began to feel misunderstood and not able to reach the level of normality he so yearned for. He felt that there was no longer any point to his life. When James asked his doctor for help, the reality of his situation suddenly struck. Suicide would be the ultimate failure. This is the story of James' life and how he fought tooth and nail to stay alive. It is both his autobiography and a guide to personal development. Since making the conscious decision not to give up hope, James has gone on to travel the world and teach English abroad. James is open and honest about the things in which he has found great solace during his darkest hours, and he credits the teachings of Kabbalah, an increasingly popular form of Jewish mysticism, for helping him refocus his life. The singer Madonna, a long term exponent of the spiritual teaching, has been an inspirational figure for James. James is now a picture of good health; despite continued weakness in his left side and a limp, he walks confidently and with a purpose.

· “What place is this? Where am I now?” “This is what, in your world, you call Heaven, it is another Realm” The Voice is calm, loving, authoritative. · At age 26, the author, Jack Bybee, was completely unprepared for death - or rather - a transition to death consciousness. It had never occurred to him that at such an early age he might die. Having been raised in a Protestant Church, there was nothing that prepared the author for what he found in what is now termed in "death consciousness". · This text has been written over years with the aim of helping the Baby Boomer or the spirit which will soon transmute to the Other Side of Earth-plane consciousness. Though every life is different and every transition to the Other Side is probably different, the text highlights the issues that were encountered so unexpectedly on transition to death consciousness. · From the time that the author's body in the hospital ward is left behind and in spirit, he transitions through the hospital, eventually looking down on the City of Cape Town, nearby in the middle of what seemed like a beautiful night, came the transition through The Tunnel, a vortex of energy, to be met by loved ones on the Other Side. · The text highlights what Bybee regards as the most important questions any spirit will need to answer. These are detailed and expanded upon in Memories of Eternity. They are: “What have you done with the life just passed?” “Whom have you loved and been loved by?” “What have you learned?” The author is convinced that these Three Questions need to be understood and answered. They were posed to him as he transitioned through The Tunnel to the Other Side by the Voice of God. · The text details the confusion of being ‘dead’, but not being dead. “What have you done with the life just passed?” As Bybee expresses, he wasn't dead. How could that be? The life just passed? How could the life be passed? He could hear, feel, see, think, move. How could he be... dead? · All this will be explored and is revealed to help the spirit understand the transition from the Earth plane to the Other Side. · Then comes what some could call judgment. A judgment of the Self? In NDE research it is called the Life Review which is dealt with extensively in Memories of Eternity. Detailing how the life just passed is presented almost as a video scenario, and the video seems to pause where the spirit needs to learn lessons and to answer the question of “Was that a loving thing to do?” · While there are numerous other titles dealing with the near-death experience, this is one of few that is written primarily to help anyone understand what happens when the spirit transitions to the Other Side.

Listen to people in every field and you'll hear a call for more sophisticated leadership—for leaders who can solve more complex problems than the human race has ever faced. But these leaders won't simply come to the fore; we have to develop them, and we must cultivate them as quickly as is humanly possible. Changing on the Job is a means to this end. As opposed to showing readers how to play the role of a leader in a "paint by numbers" fashion, Changing on the Job builds on theories of adult growth and development to help readers become more thoughtful individuals, capable of leading in any scenario. Moving from the theoretical to the practical, and employing real-world examples, author Jennifer Garvey Berger offers a set of building blocks to help cultivate an agile workforce while improving performance. Coaches, HR professionals, thoughtful leaders, and anyone who wants to flourish on the job will find this book a vital resource for developing their own capacities and those of the talent that they support.
