Victoria is adjusting to life as the mother of twin eight-month-old girls when she receives the news no one wants to hear: she has breast cancer. Suddenly, the new mom and amateur mountain bike racer is confronted with a tidal wave of information and raw emotion. Still reeling from the diagnosis, she is expected to make life-changing decisions about surgery and chemotherapy-all while attempting to process her fear, anxiety, and confusion. But Victoria chooses to battle breast cancer with the same intensity she approaches any of life's speed bumps. Tenacity, humor, a willingness to consider options that aren't doctor recommended, and a strong and committed support group help her hit this largest of speed bumps at full speed. Living Life Loudly chronicles Victoria's fifteen-month fight to ensure her daughters would have a mother to raise them. But it's more than a memoir. Within these pages is a strategy for overcoming life's challenges by jumping boldly into action while injecting joy into all aspects of your life. We are all going to run into our own life-changing speed bumps at least once. Why not be prepared?

Every evening, he rescues books from the jaws of his hydraulic press, carries them home, and fills his house with them.

"We live in a world where many live by the “what have you done for me lately?” philosophy. Love, care, and concern is based on what a person has done for them, who that person is, or for what they can get out of a situation. We are self-centered in our love as a society. Against this kind of love comes unconditional love. It is the kind of love that expresses itself to everyone, no matter who they are, no matter what they have done, and expects nothing in return. When Jesus Christ walked the earth as the God/man this was the kind of love he exhibited to others. His death on the cross is God’s ultimate expression of unconditional love. As we live Christian lives, the call is upon us to practice unconditional love just as God does. This generation desperately needs to experience genuine, unselfish, Godly love. In UNCONDITIONAL, the author chronicles his journey seeking to practice unconditional love, sometimes successfully, sometimes struggling. May his journey inspire the reader to be God’s example of His unconditional love.

To be wise, one must spend time with the wise. And how does one become wise? One way is by learning from all the foolish things one has done in the past. Success in life is not a seamless highway; that road has bumps. To become an authority on this, Peter G. James Sinclair has led a life that has been a series of stops, starts, fast bursts, long hauls, desert treks, jungle manoeuvres, and a whole lot more. And yet even when a brick wall has stood between him and success, he has learnt to stand back, size up the opposition and simply shout, There must be another way through. And do you know what? There always is. If We Screw Each Other, Were All Screwed: A Book on Getting Earthly Wisdom is the result of a life lived in the real world dealing with real people. Within its pages, more than five decades of tried and tested wisdom has been compacted into short, concise and easily digestible phrases that have been designed for immediate application to your life. Some would call them quotes. Peter calls them liquid gold. In order to reach success in life and have successful relationships in this world, one must acquire and administer earthly wisdom.

A New York Times bestseller! In this motivational handbook—both a business how-to and self-help guide—the New York Times bestselling author of Dot Complicated takes on the fallacy of the "well-balanced" life, arguing that the key to success is learning to be well-lopsided. Work. Sleep. Fitness. Family. Friends. Pick Three. In an increasingly demanding world, we’ve been told that we can do everything—maintain friendships, devote ourselves to work, spend time with family, stay fit, and get enough sleep. We just need to learn to balance it all. Randi Zuckerberg doesn’t believe in being well-balanced. We can’t do it all every day, she contends, and trying to do so only leaves us frustrated and feeling inadequate. But we can succeed if we Pick Three. Randi first introduced the concept of Pick Three in a tweet—"The Entrepreneur’s Dilemma"—that went viral. Now, in this book, she expands on her philosophy and inspires others to follow her lead. From entrepreneurs to professionals, busy parents to students, Randi can help everyone learn to reject the unrealistic burden of balance and enjoy success in their own lives—by picking the most important areas to focus on in any given day. This practical handbook includes stories from Randi’s career learning that there’s no such thing as a perfect balance—as well as insights and examples from other professionals at the top of the biggest businesses in Silicon Valley, new moms searching for permission to focus on family, and recent graduates convinced they should have it all under control, including Arianna Huffington, Reshma Saujani, Laurie Hernandez, and Brad Takei. We can’t have it all every day, and that’s okay, Randi reminds us. Pick Three is her much-needed guide to learning to embrace the well-lopsided life.
