100 Percent Mortality: 15 Stories of Excuses, Mistakes, and Misunderstandings in Estate Planning by Debra Koven

100 Percent Mortality: 15 Stories of Excuses, Mistakes, and Misunderstandings in Estate Planning by Debra Koven

Estate planning is more important than you realize… and these 15 stories will inspire you to take action now!
One day, you’re going to die.

How did that statement make you feel? Were you tempted to stop reading and hide from the idea for another day?

Most of us do. We live in a world where we shy away from death – a fundamental concept of life that affects us all.

Yet that very thing prevents us from taking the actions that will allow our legacies to live on and make sure our loved ones are taken care of no matter what happens.

That’s why you started reading this, and it’s why you’re still here reading, despite how uncomfortable that sentence might have made you feel.

Think about this: If you’re not willing to think about the inevitability of death, how will you have control of what happens to your remains? How will you know that your children are looked after or that your assets go to the people you care about?

The trick is not to push the idea of death out of your mind, but instead to prepare for it – so you can keep living life to the fullest, with complete peace of mind that everything will work out as you wish when you finally reach the end.

The trick is estate planning.

It might sound like an administrative headache, but it’s really no more complicated than a set of clear instructions dictating who your assets will go to and when.

It shows your loved ones that you care about them enough to sort everything out to protect them, and it ensures that when you eventually pass and they’re already facing deep sadness and grief, they won’t find themselves in court trying to figure out exactly what it was you wanted.

The Divorce Upside: Finding You After Losing Him by Kristy Bailey

The Divorce Upside: Finding You After Losing Him by Kristy Bailey

Shift your mindset and start seeing divorce as a gift of self-discovery—even if right now, it feels like your world has been turned upside-down.

There is a reason why traditional stress scales class divorce as one of the biggest challenges human beings can face.

When divorce happens, everything you took as a given—that your kids would live in your home all the time, that you would have a lifetime companion “in sickness and in health,” your financial security—are all called into question.

What’s more, one of the pillars of your identity is being a spouse and parent, and when divorce happens, it can seem like you have no idea which direction to take.

It is so easy to judge yourself as a “failure” when in fact, half of all first marriages end up in divorce, and second and third marriages end at a far higher rate.

Know that the “happy ever after” doesn’t have to involve a prince.

Your story starts within you and you are its protagonist.

Divorce gives you the chance to discover that you—and only you—are responsible for your happiness.

You choose how to interpret life and present yourself to others, and you decide the things you give value to.

You can choose to see villains and victims in your narrative, or be grateful for what you have (and what you had) and decide to build a beautiful, complete, and dynamic life.

Consider this book as a guide, shared by someone who has been through the same rollercoaster of emotions you are going through. It contains vital life lessons and a recipe to stop seeing your divorce as a “failure” and start seeing it as one of the greatest opportunities for growth you will ever receive.

The Lawyer Without A Suit: Make More Money, Have More Freedom, and Never Set Foot in a Courtroom Again by Will Worsham

The Lawyer Without A Suit: Make More Money, Have More Freedom, and Never Set Foot in a Courtroom Again by Will Worsham

Lawyer life didn’t turn out to be as profitable and exciting as you dreamed… But you have the power to change that!
Whatever your professional training and experience, there’s a fairly good chance that you’ve never benefited from the wisdom of a high-tech hillbilly lawyer…

But that’s about to change – and here’s why it should:

Law is stressful. The courtroom is stressful. But law is also exciting… and legal expertise is in demand.

There’s a way for you to grow your own law firm and strip off your tie, ready to show up to work comfortable, confident, and completely in charge.

How many long Friday afternoons have you spent in a courtroom, knowing full well what the outcome is going to be, but feeling powerless to speed up proceedings or get a better result for your client?

That’s not why you joined this profession, and as long as it continues, you’re going to become increasingly more disillusioned and anxious to leave.

And this is where the hillbilly spirit comes in. Forget what you’ve heard about hillbillies, and focus on two key things: freedom and entrepreneurial spirit.

These are the energies you want to channel to turn your law firm into a huge success and get back your love of the law.

Will Worsham is the guide you need to get you there, and through his personal journey and expert advice, you’ll find everything you need to kickstart an incredible future… The future you envisioned for yourself when you first signed up for your law degree.

Single: Not Incomplete: Finding fulfillment in a season the world tells you to rush through

About Single: Not Incomplete: Finding fulfillment in a season the world tells you to rush through:

Girl, I get it.

You read the title and grimaced at another book on positivity during your singleness. In a world that worships romantic relationships, it’s easy to feel like you’re less because you don’t have one. For most of my life, I went from relationship to relationship believing this. Insert some plot twists, a season of singleness that lasted longer than anticipated, and I realized that maybe romantic relationships aren’t the ultimate worth definer. Perhaps our worth isn’t found in a love we feel the need to earn, but a Heavenly love that has always pursued us first.

So, what’s different about this book? This author’s season of singleness never changed in the course of its writing. If you’re anything like me, you’d rather throw up than read a relationship book written in hindsight by someone from the comfort of their blissful marriage. While those messages have their place, the people I found the most comfort in during my singleness were also experiencing it. My prayer is that this book can be that friend for you. All of these devotionals are written to the discouragement I experienced in this chapter, coupled with the Scripture-led realizations I eventually came to.

I believe there is purpose behind oursingle season, and it’s possible to find fulfillment in this time while being hopeful it will end one day. So, to the girl trying to rush through this chapter of her life, remember there is treasure here. May we fix our eyes on the One who will help us find it together.

Take the first step towards a more fulfilling and purposeful season of singleness. Purchase this book now and embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery and spiritual growth

Mindset First: Break Free from the Weight of Results, Play with Confidence, and Perform When It Matters Most by Dr. Cassidy Preston

Mindset First: Break Free from the Weight of Results, Play with Confidence, and Perform When It Matters Most by Dr. Cassidy Preston

Tired of all the fluffy and cookie-cutter mental game advice? Keep reading to learn a reliable and repeatable way to win the mental game…

The pursuit of excellence is a double edged sword that leaves many hockey players or any high-performer worrying about mistakes, overthinking, and lacking confidence.

Fluffy and cookie-cutter advice like “be positive,” “don’t worry about it,” and “just be confident” only makes things worse. These might be the mental states you are trying to achieve, but they are not the ‘how to’.

Instead, you need to train your mind like the best athletes in the world. They use practical concepts and personalized strategies to optimize their mindset and perform when it matters most.

In this concise and practical book, Dr. Cassidy Preston pulls back the curtain on how he coaches professional athletes and high-performers in all areas of life to challenge the status quo and think differently about success and failure.
