DO! the pursuit of xceptional execution
Kevin Kelly does an excellent job of examining a number of successful startups in various industries and highlighting how their exceptional execution made them successful. He admonishes readers that entrepreneurs don’t need to have a completely new business plan to be successful, but if they can execute even a common idea in an uncommon way, they can find success.
If you truly want to Think Big; Do will do it for you! Success will no longer be the exclusive domain of visionaries, entrepreneurs with fully loaded business plans and well financed startups. It can be anyone’s game –including yours. The huge barrier to entry is xceptional execution and Do highlights the DNA and strategies behind some of the brightest startups on the planet. In his engaging and energetic style and with extraordinary content, Kevin Kelly has become the voice of execution.
Jason Jennings, NY Times Bestselling Author of, It’s Not The Big That Eat The Small-It’s The Fast That Eat The Slow and The Reinventors
“In this remarkable book, Kevin Kelly skillfully proves it’s not the brilliant idea, but instead, the shining ability to execute simple plans that belies the greatest business success stories of our time. Read this book if you want to Do the great thing, and not just dream about it.”
Tim Sanders, author of NYT Best Seller Love is the Killer App and former Chief Solutions Officer at Yahoo!
“What got me was Kevin’s confession to having been an ‘idea killer’. He was a guy who looked for the reasons why…Not! His conversion to a DO’er is an inspiring journey through multiple examples of business successes achieved by others in a wide variety of fields worldwide. It’s not a book about him, it’s about them and how you can do what they did. Read this book to strengthen your belief in your ideas and in yourself.”

Habit stacking works because you eliminate the stress of trying to change too many things at once. Your goal is to simply focus on a single routine that only takes about 15 to 30 minutes to complete. Within this routine is a series of actions (or small changes). All you have to do is to create a checklist and follow it every single day. That’s the essence of habit stacking.

Trust me – I’ve been there and it’s not fun. In the months after I started my first business I didn’t know any better. My business was making me ill, but I was too wrapped up in what I was doing to spot the signs let alone to do anything about it. That is until the day I found myself on a London tube train begging a stranger to call me an ambulance and thinking I was going to die. That was my wake-up call. Luckily I got a second chance.
That day I realised that life is short and precious and I made a decision that if I pulled through I was going to do things differently. I decided to restructure my business efforts so that I could live life to the full.
What I decided to create for myself was:
A business that I could be proud of
The financial freedom to live the life of my dreams
The time freedom to do the things I love and to be with the people who matter most to me
And now I want to help you do the same.
After all, deciding to start your own business is something you do because you have a vision of a better life for you and your family. It’s your chance to take control and live life on your terms.

In short, a business that allows you to work less and earn more.
Starting Your Virtual Business:
Never Work Again shows you how you can easily start your own no-money down virtual business – a business that will make you money online and allow you to quickly achieve financial freedom and time freedom.
All you need to do is choose from a number of simple blueprints and follow the one that’s right for you
You will learn how to create positive habits that will free up your time and allow your business to grow more quickly than you ever thought possible
You will be able to work from home or work virtually from anywhere on the planet – what’s your favourite city or beach?!
And you will learn how to automate and outsource your business, leveraging other people’s time for your own benefit so that you can start living the life you really want
But more than this, Never Work Again explores what it means to live a truly happy and fulfilled life – to really live the life of your dreams. It encourages you to examine your own motivations and desires in order to determine your true purpose and path in life – so you can discover what freedom really means for you.
Remember, your time is precious – in fact, it’s the most precious resource that you have. Don’t waste another second of it doing things that you don’t absolutely love. Learn how to start creating the life of your dreams today.

The book came in a timely manner and was in good condition. The book itself was a great book, very inspirational.
Love Is a Verb takes his teaching to the next level.

Little Black Sambo: A Children’s Picture Book and Story (Illustrated) (Children’s Picture Books)
A true classic! The story is sweet and adventurous for children and is NOT racially biased!! I remember the story from my childhood and was pleased to be able to share it with my grandchildren.
Little Black Sambo was written by Helen Bannerman, a Scottish lady living in India during the 1890’s for her two daughters during a train trip across India. The story is set in India and tells of the experiences of a little Indian boy who goes for a walk in the jungle. He ends up giving away his clothing to hungry tigers who wanted to eat him. The story has a unique ending that children love and it has to do Sambo getting his clothes back and then eating pancakes, but I won’t spoil the ending by revealing exactly what happens.
There are many parents and grandparents who will remember Sambo and his triumph over adversity from their childhood and who want to share it with a new generation and this digital ebook makes sharing very easy. It’s very legible on Kindle for iPhone/iPad/Android/Blackberry or Kindle for PC or other devices where you can view it in color. (Standard Kindle is currently black and white only)
Be aware that the story has attracted a fair bit of controversy over the years from people who feel it contains racist overtones. To children it is just a fairy tale and it is only when they are taught to discriminate by adults that they perceive things differently. Children do not have a natural color prejudice and delight in this lovely little tale – a tale that even a child can recognize as fiction.

Raspberries and Vinegar (A Farm Fresh Romance)
Until I read this book, I’d never heard of “farmlit,” and didn’t know what to expect. Romantic, fun, with refreshing values, and small town atmosphere, readers will enjoy this romp on the farm!
Josephine Shaw: complex, yet singleminded. A tiny woman with big ideas and, some would say, a mouth to match. But what does she really know about sustainable living as it relates to the real world? After all, she and her two friends are new to farming.
Zachary Nemesek is back only until his dad recovers enough to work his own land again. When Zach discovers three helpless females have taken up residence at the old farm next door, he expects trouble. But a mouse invasion proves Jo has everything under control. Is there anything she can’t handle? And surely there’s something sweet beneath all that tart.
Raspberries and Vinegar is the first novel in the Farm Fresh Romance series which sees three young women purchase an old farm in northern Idaho together with the purpose of growing their own food and proving to those around them that they can make a difference. It is a story of living sustainably on the land and focusing on real, local food from a Christian point-of-view. It doesn’t pad the issues nor preach about them, but allows the characters the freedom to grapple with environmentalism as believers.
A contemporary Christian romance novel, Raspberries and Vinegar crosses genres into farm lit. Readers consistently comment on the uniqueness and creativity of the blend. It’s an Amazon bestseller in Christian women’s fiction.
“Valerie Comer’s voice has definitely been missing in the Christian fiction market.”
*~* EXCERPT *~*
Jo straightened her back, pasted on a smile, and consulted her clipboard. Ellie, at the desk, had informed her the resident of Room 224 lived in the present, at least some days. She tapped the door lightly and nudged it open. “Hello, Mrs. Humbert?”
An old woman, white hair floating around her face like a halo, sat in her wheelchair by a small table. A man swiveled at the intrusion from his seat facing the window.
Jo caught her breath. Zach?
“Please come in, my dear.” The old lady peered at her through rheumy eyes. “Do I know you?”
Jo closed the space. She could block Zach from her thoughts. This was her job. She took the soft white hand in hers. “I’m Josephine Shaw, the facility’s new nutritionist, and I’m here to talk to you about food.”
Zach chuckled. “Be careful, Grandma. She’ll toss your stash of candies in the garbage.”
Thanks a lot, buster. Jo shot a glare at Zach. Just her luck he felt the need to interfere on his grandmother’s behalf.
Jo turned her back on him and tried for a light tone. “Unless you have any fair-trade organic dark chocolate in there. That stuff is hard for me to resist.”
Mrs. Humbert’s poufy hair shimmered as she shook her head. “Now that’s something I don’t have, but John can pick some up for us if you like.” She patted Jo’s hand. “Then I can bribe you to be nice to me.”
John? Jo shot a questioning look at Zach, but he just lifted a shoulder and shook his head. She squeezed the old lady’s hand. “I don’t need bribing.” Not with anyone who needed help, and the fact that this was Zach’s grandmother clinched the deal. “It’s my job to make sure you’re getting the best possible nutrition, though, so let’s keep those empty calorie snacks at a minimum, shall we?”
Zach laughed.
If it hadn’t been directed at her, Jo might have enjoyed the deep, full sound. But no. It was at her expense. She gritted her teeth and swiveled to face him. “May I ask what’s so funny?”
He waved a hand. “Really, does it matter? Why make big changes? Let these folks enjoy the remainder of their days and eat what they like. It’s not like a diet change is going to make that much of a difference.”
She narrowed her eyes. “It’s my job. I’ve been hired to improve the menu.”
Zach leaned back in the chair and ran his gaze down and up her. Not, sadly, in a romantic way. More like an intimidation attempt.
