In August, 2017, the death knell sounded for yet another troubled American manufacturer: Appleton Coated, a historic paper mill in the Wisconsin village of Combined Locks. The mill and its parts were sold to a receiver who planned to sell them for scrap, eliminating hundreds of jobs and devastating a community. But then the unlikely happened. Dedicated union workers teamed with a lone local official to leverage an obscure legal strategy proposed by a community-minded attorney to stop the sell-off, enable a profitable new business plan, and save a cherished way of life. Now that local official tells the story behind this remarkable turnaround. As county executive of Outagamie County, Thomas Nelson is a progressive Democrat fighting for workers' rights in one of the Republican-leaning areas that have made his home state a battleground in national politics. One Day Stronger is an inspiring saga of how people power can triumph even in the face of indifference and outright hostility from powerful political forces. As the Appleton Coated mill and its workers struggled, Governor Scott Walker and his allies in the state legislature focused instead on channeling billions in state funds to Foxconn, a Taiwanese electronics firm offering job promises that would soon prove hollow. It took a groundswell of community anger-along with creative legal and political maneuvering by the United Steelworkers union and their local supporters-to force the receiver who'd taken control of the mill to change course, reviving its business prospects rather than shutting it down forever.Today the mill in Combined Locks is going strong again. But similar companies continue to face threats like the one that almost destroyed the mill. Author Nelson explains the crucial role that labor unions have traditionally played in making prosperity widely available to American families-and how they can do the same in the future through partnerships with forward-looking businesspeople and political leaders committed to economic justice.In a world where corporate greed and financial engineering have crushed the dreams of countless Americans, One Day Stronger offers a road map for fighting back-and winning.

The New York Times bestselling memoir of the 27-year-old Boston Marathon bombing survivor and the basis of the major motion picture starring Jake Gyllenhaal. When Jeff Bauman woke up on Tuesday, April 16th, 2013 in the Boston Medical Center, groggy from a series of lifesaving surgeries and missing his legs, the first thing he did was try to speak. When he realized he couldn't, he asked for a pad and paper and wrote down seven words: "Saw the guy. Looked right at me," setting off one of the biggest manhunts in the country's history. Just thirty hours before, Jeff had been at the finish line of the 2013 Boston Marathon cheering on his girlfriend, Erin, when the first bomb went off at his feet. As he was rushed to the hospital, he realized he was severely injured and that he might die, but he didn't know that a photograph of him in a wheelchair was circulating throughout the world, making him the human face of the Boston Marathon bombing victims, or that what he'd seen would give the Boston police their most important breakthrough. In Stronger, Jeff describes the chaos and terror of the bombing itself and the ongoing FBI investigation in which he was a key witness. He takes us inside his grueling rehabilitation, and discusses his attempt to reconcile the world's admiration with his own guilt and frustration. . Brave, compassionate, and emotionally compelling, Jeff Bauman's story is not just his, but ours as well.

"I never lose. Either I win or a I learn"- Nelson Mandela. I live by this quote. I strive to start my day strong and end my day stronger. I wrote this book to help others do just that. How we start our day greatly impacts how it goes. There are prompts at the start of each day to help set yourself up for success. Every item included is supported by decades of scientific research. Success comes from completing just ONE priority action-item each day. That equals 365 successes a year! This priority item is our daily compass and directs our choices through the day. A daily quote is included for inspiration and encouragement. The Feedback section reminds you that what matters is measured. How you score yourself from day-to-day is just information. If you are happy with your scores, celebrate it. If you don't like your answers, you are now empowered to change it tomorrow. To develop a growth and learning mindset, reflect at the end of the day. Learn from the good and the bad. Then, when you know better, do better.
