Stuck In A Rut? - Rise and Shine!

Have you spent too long hiding your light under a bushel? Don't you think its time that you let the world see just how brightly you can shine? One of the worst crimes known to humanity is oppression. When people are oppressed, it is almost the same as slavery. They have their spirit broken like a wild mustang that was once free to roam wherever it pleased, and is now confined to a tiny little coral and is subjected to saddles and spurs on a daily basis. To keep someone oppressed is a definite violation of their human rights. However there is a crime that is even more sinister than the oppression of the masses, it is the oppression of yourself. Feeling stuck in a rut is a self inflicted mental prison. If you are stuck in a rut, it is down to you and you alone to get yourself unstuck. It is time to stop holding your greatness hostage and to let the light that resides within you shine through like a beacon guiding ships safely through the stormy sea of life. Make a decision to "rise and shine." Rise up from the self imposed rut that you have been in for far too long and shine your inner strength and confidence for all the world to see. Life boils down to a matter of choices. The right choices will enable you to live a life that most people will only ever dream about and will think is far beyond their grasp. The wrong choices will keep you feeling fearful instead of fearless, they will keep your greatness held hostage and they will keep you firmly stuck in your rut. You can either be reactive to life or proactive to life. You can either wait till life decides what it will give you, or you can decide what you want from life and take action to get it. I make no apologies for making it sound so simple, that is because it is simple, it is not easy but it is simple. It is time for you to rise above the mediocrity of merely existing and to start truly living the life that you know you deserve and have always wanted. The time for talking was yesterday, the time for action is today. Break free from the self imposed prison of your mind and take action today to rise above your previous position and shine like a beacon of hope so that everyone can see the personal power that resided deep within you.

Napoleon on Project Management - Why do I include this in a list of books aimed at female entrepreneurs? Well...in the expectation that there are as many female history buffs as male ones, and in the belief that anyone interested in history will find this book fascinating, while those interested in project management will learn a thing or two. I think this was the first "gimmick" book - an author using a historical figure (usually a male, military figure, it must be admitted) to talk about modern day business management. I refuse to read any of the kind that advocates - even obliquely - the techniques of the Sopranos or the Mossad - but these military ones are pretty fun. Anyway: Only in the understanding of history, Napoleon might say, do we gain an understanding of strategy in the present. In the same spirit, Napoleon on Project Management offers the recipe for successfully managing your commitments using the strategies, tactics and priorities that propelled Napoleon himself to victory. [The book doesn't gloss over how Napolean eventually fell in defeat, of course, and there's lessons to be learned there as well. TOC Foreword by Douglas James Allan (Napoleanic Society of America) 1.
