Paperback. Zustand: Good. Know who you are and be it. This is the central message of Bob Perkins' innovative concepts that will help you set a vision for your life by identifying and developing what he calls your Core Motivator. Are you driven by a need to belong to a team? A desire for relationships? A quest for perfection? An eagerness to care for or to serve others? A talent for creating? A passion for giving? These are the Core Motivators that drive each of us-and the Keys to setting a vision for your life. This book isn't about your talents or gifts, or what you've learned over the course of your life; it is about who you are deep inside. Setting a vision for your life begins when you gain a clear picture of yourself as a one-of-a-kind individual. To do that, you must answer the question: what is your Core Motivator? The principles outlined in this book resonate with people of all ages. It is for all of us because we are all created in the image of God, and we are meant to live life to the fullest. Without a vision for our lives, we either live someone else's vision or we wander aimlessly-and the only thing worse than following someone else's vision for your life is to wander aimlessly This book is also for those who think that life has nearly passed them by-who think it's too late to find significance in life and be energized by the work they do. It is for all of us-created in the image of God and meant to live life to the fullest. Using examples from the lives of those he has helped, Bob Perkins assists you in identifying the unique person God made you to be.

These concepts will set you on the path to a full life based on your Core Motivator-the person you truly are. By building a vision for your life, you will celebrate your uniqueness with the totality of your life.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Did you ever stop to think that the person who just walked by was someone you were supposed to meet? In this fast-paced world, we sometimes miss opportunities to become inspired by complete strangers, or even someone close to us. For years, Melissa Missy Hopely struggled with this idea because, although family and teammates always surrounded her, she felt completely alone in her battle with depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and bullying. Missy was diagnosed with OCD and depression as a teenager. Although she excelled as an athlete in sports like soccer and softball, Missy had a difficult time with normal social interactions and relationships. She struggled with a sometimes-crippling anxiety that made her stand out in a negative way to her peers, causing them to bully her at school. Persevering through years of hiding her true self, enduring her parents' difficult and painful divorce, and being abandoned by friends who couldn't cope with her differences, Missy started listening to others' stories. All of the people she had met throughout her lifetime. What she found out astonished her: Everyone has a story. Everyone feels insignificant at times. Everyone has challenges. Everyone will experience both bad and good. Everything we experience and go through is a part of us, but it doesn't have to define us. And, most important: Others have been where you are; you are not alone. This book tells not only Missy's story, but also the inspirational stories of courage and perseverance of people Missy has met in real life. People like Carolyn, a high school student diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor. Kimberly, a mom whose daughter's suicide made national television headlines. Lafayette, who has been HIV positive since birth. Jordan, who suffers from depression and bi-polar disorder and tried to take his own life by jumping out a ninth-story window. Ryan, a semi-professional boxer and college student who doesn't let his amputation slow him down. P-Track, who doesn't let his Asperger syndrome keep him from dancing. And, so many others. Missy's positive, encouraging message shines through these stories: If we take a second, we as individuals have the great power of uniting and working together to change other people's lives and our world for the better.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. When six-year-old Eric Allen vanishes into thin air one rainy morning after his dad drops him off at school, Detective Dave Munoz and FBI agent Craig Walker are called in to solve the case. But how can they even know where to begin without a single witness or a shred of evidence? As they increasingly become convinced that the bright, handsome youngster has been kidnapped, the two lawmen also come to realize that it's not only Eric's life that hangs in the balance, but also that of the boy's distraught father. Jonathan Allen is still grieving the mysterious death of his wife a few months earlier; now, the disappearance of his son threatens to destroy what's left of his world. Munoz and Walker grimly and painstakingly piece together a complex puzzle as their investigation draws them into a tangled web of dark secrets and sinister activity that seems to stretch from some of New England's seamiest neighborhoods to some of its most posh addresses. As the days pass, the likelihood of finding Eric alive rapidly diminishes. And it seems that the individuals who might have helpful information about the child's disappearance, keep turning up dead. Can the two lawmen crack the case before it's too late? Can they find where little Eric Allen has been hidden? Hidden takes readers on a tour through New England's roads-less-traveled, including its red-light districts, quiet suburban neighborhoods, and even its hallowed halls of justice. Along the way, it pauses periodically to pull back the picture-postcard facades to reveal startling secrets behind closed doors in the lives of seemingly ordinary citizens.…
