Beyond Want

If you aren’t where you want to be in life, it may have something to do with you. What you want, think, how you spend your time, and how you feel are all influenced by external variables that can invade your inner world. When this happens, the results often lead to disaster. But by rethinking currently held beliefs and deciding what is truly important, you can work toward your best life. Now is the time to literally retrain your subconscious mind. In this book, the author explores how to prioritize your time and make positive decisions each moment of every day. Learn how to: • see all the options available to you on a daily basis; • ask yourself new, better, and empowering questions; • redefine, reshape, and reimagine your life; and • map out the steps you must take to achieve your goals. Hale also examines how prayer and affirmation is a conduit between humanity and the source of creation and how action steps are like stepping stones leading us to where we want to go. Look at life with a fresh perspective and start living your best life now—without anything extra—with the lessons in Beyond Want.

Polly Young-Eisendrath´s Women and Desire: Beyond Wanting to Be Wanted was first published by Harmony Books in 1999. Since then, it has become a classic read for those readers– to use a cinematographic expression – who want to use analytical psychology to shed light on what women want. This book, when first published, was described (and still is) as “provocative and vital.” More than 20 years after its publication, this book still shows effectively “how to break out of this double bind so that” women “can encounter the challenges of choice and responsibility for our own desires.” The author “wisely uses mythological and personal stories to help us take control of our sexual, relational, material, and spiritual lives.” Therefore, “If you feel confused, resentful, or trapped in a life that does not seem to be fully yours, then you can find a clear path to your true self, once and for all, with the help of Women and Desire.” This book is the second of the series titled Jungianeum: Re-Covered Classics in Analytical Psychology curated by Stefano Carpani.

This book was inspired by conversations and questions I've had with students all over Australia. Conversations about all kinds of subjects in a variety of different contexts. Conversations with students just like you.Each one of these conversations reflects a moment of choice in the life of a student-a decision that student had to make at one time or another.You see, life is full of moments. Every day is full of moments.Some we expect, and some we don't.Some that generate joy, celebration and satisfaction, and some that reflect pain, confusion and grief.The fact is, moments matter. And how we respond and navigate our way through those moments is important because it influences what happens next.As you continue to grow up, there will be moments that are inescapable. My hope is that this book will give you the practical tools to know what to do when these moments arrive.

"An inspiring tribute to female friendship and female courage!"--Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of The Alice Network and The Huntress. Three women are brought together in an enthralling story of friendship, heartbreak, and resilience. Set at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, this is an amazing debut novel. Duty. Honor. Country. That’s West Point’s motto, and every cadet who passes through its stone gates vows to live it. But on the eve of 9/11, as Dani, Hannah and Avery face four grueling years ahead, they realize they’ll only survive if they do it together. Everyone knows Dani is going places. With athletic talent and a brilliant mind, she navigates West Point’s predominantly male environment with wit and confidence, breaking stereotypes and embracing new friends. Hannah’s grandfather, a legendary Army general, offers a stark warning about the dangers that lie ahead, but she moves forward anyway, letting faith guide her path. When she meets her soul mate at West Point, the future looks perfect, just as planned. Wild child Avery moves fast and doesn’t mind breaking a few rules (and hearts) along the way. But she can’t outpace her self-doubt, and the harder she tries, the further it leads her down a treacherous path. The world—of business, of love, and of war—awaits Dani, Hannah, and Avery beyond the gates of West Point. These three women know that what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. But soon, that adage no longer rings true—for their future, or their friendship. As they’re pulled in different directions, will their hard-forged bond prevail or shatter? Beyond the Point is a heartfelt look at how our closest friends can become our fiercest battle buddies. After all, the greatest battles we fight rarely require a uniform.

How to Move Beyond Where You Are to Where You Want to Be is an inspirational book on how to transition our thought process. Every action begins with a thought. If we desire to change our behaviors and receive better results, we have to change our thoughts. Romans 12:2 states, "And be not conformed to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God." In this book, there are simple steps in transforming the thought process from negative to positive from lack to abundance and from despair to hope. It empowers the reader to live his/her best days by bringing every thought captive to the promises of God.

Happiness is often easy to depict in books but is often the hardest for anyone to feel in reality. This is because life is nothing like a story, but that doesn't mean that happiness is unachievable. The feeling of happiness varies among people and there are many different reasons as to why one would be happy. In the end, it's how long that happiness is able to last that matters the most. Of course you would want your happiness to last for as long as you live, but the fact that you want to read this book means that you probably don't know what happiness is or how to obtain it. The truth is that happiness is not as difficult to achieve as you think it would be and this book would explain why.
