Have you wandered from the life you want to live? Chrystal Evans Hurst shares raw and vulnerable stories from her own life to let you know how you too can find your way back after a few missteps. Over 100,000 copies sold! What happens when a woman looks at herself in the mirror, lingering just a little longer than usual and realizes that she no longer recognizes the person staring back at her? What does she do when she sees that, somehow, her life has drifted away from all her original hopes, dreams, or plans? Speaker, blogger, and writer Chrystal Evans Hurst wrote this book because she was that woman. One day she realized that she had somehow wandered from the life she was meant to live. Chrystal since discovered that this moment of awareness happens to lots of women at different seasons of their lives. Poor decisions, a lack of intentionality or planning, or a long-term denial of deep hopes and dreams can leave a woman, old or young, reeling from the realization that she is lost, disappointed, or simply numb. And she just needs encouragement. This woman simply needs someone to hold her hand, cheer her on, and believe with her that she is still capable of being the person she intended to be. Chrystal uses her poignant story of an early and unexpected pregnancy, as well as other raw and vulnerable moments in her life, to let readers know she understands what it's like to try and find your way after some missteps or decisions you didn't plan on. In She's Still There Chrystal emphasizes the importance of the personal process and the beauty of authentically sharing your journey one girlfriend to another. It’s a book of "me toos," reminders of the hoped for, and challenges for the path ahead--to find direction, purpose, and true satisfaction. Also available: She's Still There DVD series and study guide.

You don't have to betray yourself or your values to close stellar sales. This book introduces a simple formula for a personalized approach to building connections through alignment and problem-solving. So many salespeople believe that they have to push themselves out of their comfort zones and compromise their values to sell products. But, as Stacey Hall shows, the comfort zone can actually be a power zone that leads to sales, satisfaction, and success. Selling from Your Comfort Zone shifts away from pushy and spammy sales tactics and instead shows how you can bring meaning to your role as a salesperson. Hall teaches how to remain in alignment with your calling, with yourself, with what you are selling, with your prospects, and with what you are saying to your prospects. By being aligned with your core values and personality traits, you will have more confidence, energy, and courage to achieve your goals, which greatly increases the chances of success. Studies reveal that while men generally rely on improving and driving outcomes to close sales, women tend to emphasize building connections, shaping solutions, and collaborating. Hall's Alignment Marketing formula combines both skillsets in an easy-to-follow process for gently expanding your comfort zone to the edge of its safe boundaries. By adopting this approach, you can stay flexible and resilient in the face of problems and objections that all salespeople encounter along the way.

Changing Your Paradigm and Shifting your Mindset in 21 Days By Joel L. Joseph, MPA Most textbooks of this nature go through the theory and inundate the reader with historical perspectives and unrelated information to fill up space. I have learned that KISS (Keep it Simple Sweetie) is something that works better when trying to reach a larger group of people. The Follow-up: 21 Days of Accountability power packs knowledge, practice and application in a manner that is palatable and inspiring to the intended audience. Overview Being that this is my 3rd Book (1st: The Sweat off My Back; 2nd: Journey 2 Greatness), I wanted to do something different. I wanted to create a book that addressed the gaps that many of us have and that is with commitment and follow-through. I myself have had to gain an accountability partner or partners that were on the same path with me trying to attain similar goals to keep me on track. This book’s caveat (statement of disclaimer) is that I do NOT try and present a perfect solution. There are no perfect solutions because we are not perfect people. In fact no book can guarantee your success without YOU putting the work or effort in to produce the results that you desire. Many experts and top consultants can agree that there are no shortcuts to success. In fact, the journey to the place in which the person inside of you becomes the very best version of you, experts say that it takes 21 days to change a behavior or form a new habit. I encourage you to take that as a challenge to look at the next 21 days and thereafter as a time to put in the arduous work that it takes to change your lifestyle. As a producer of change you must know that the process of change takes accountability and the ability to measure your progress. This is how you will adjust, stabilize or reduce those things that are necessary to promote the BEST results. At the end of this book I suggest that you look deeply at what you have accomplished and judge it heavily, don’t be easy on yourself. Don’t let yourself off the hook, take the tough approach to be honest about the change that you need to make and simply do it! Journaling is an important part of any process. So purchase a journal (or the detailed journal for this book, which is available at www.jljoseph.com ) and reflect as much as possible of the journey. Enjoy the results, reflect on the ups and down and celebrate often.
