Do you ride the escalator or do you take the stairs? No matter how you define success, it always requires one thing: self-discipline. But as popular speaker and strategist Rory Vaden explains, we live in an "escalator world", one that's filled with shortcuts, quick fixes, and distractions that make it all too easy to slide into procrastination, compromise, and mediocrity. What seems like an easier path is really much harder in the end - and, most important, it won't take you where you want to go.

Overwhelmed. Do you wake up in the morning already feeling behind? Does the pressure of keeping it all together make you feel anxious and irritable? Tanya Dalton, CEO and productivity expert, offers you a liberating shift in perspective: Feeling overwhelmed isn't the result of having too much to do - it's from not knowing where to start. Doing less might seem counterintuitive, but doing less is more productive, because you’re concentrating on the work you actually want to be doing.

By recognizing the lies and replacing them with truth, you'll be able to silence the voice inside that whispers you're just not good enough, accept God's grace and move past failures that have defined and confined you.

In this optimistic, solution-packed book, KJ asks: How can we change our family life so that it is full of the joy we'd always hoped for? Drawing from the latest research and interviews with families, KJ discovers that it's possible to do more by doing less, and make our family life a refuge and pleasure, rather than another stress point in a hectic day.

In a world where women can unfriend each other with the swipe of a finger, how do we find friendships that we can trust to last? Maybe by first becoming those kinds of lasting friends ourselves. As the community manager at the website incourage.me since 2010, Lisa-Jo Baker has had the chance to engage hundreds of conversations with women about friendship. She's learned that no one can make us quite as unsure about ourselves as another woman. And nothing can wound as deeply as unkind words from a friend.

Forgiveness is an action not a feeling wow!!
For all women in all areas of life but especially the Mama who is at home with littles and not sure of the plan of God on your life, wow this SO blessed me. I felt like her book and words were exactly what I needed to hear during this season of my life right NOW. Thank you for writing unapologetically from your heart and sharing pieces of your life with me, it means so much. Your testimonies of God's goodness and what He has done thus far has encouraged me greatly, and seriously, not exaggerating, I feel like even listening to the first few chapters stuff broke off of me and I was able to breakthrough in areas, I don't need words or to know the why, I could feel life came through your words, the Spirit moved as He wished and worked in my heart, and I was blessed. If you are reading this, trust me, you need to purchase this NOW. Amen.
