From the beginning of the book I learned that it is very important to live the golden rule of wealth. The golden rule is to invest at least ten percent of your income for long-term growth. If you follow this rule it will make you a very wealthy person. During the middle of the book I found the scenario with Roy and Brain really interesting. They are brothers and they decided to buy a house together and fix it up and rent it out, they made it seem really simple to make an investment, split up the work, and find someone to lease from them. They stared feeling really comfortable about their finances. Towards the end of the book I found the part about retirement was very interesting, I even had my mom read…

The point of the story was to show that many people do not know how to change the patterns of their lives despite the big dreams they have. There is no guideline to life coaching. Not every life coach does the same thing. While some people send clients an information sheet other coaches may send a client their resume. Many coaches tend to use more formal assessment tools (Collins, 2009, p.133). Part four of the book looks at the vision of a life coach. Without vision many things would not be what they are today. Gary Collins uses the circus to motivate the reader to have a vision and use that vision to be a more effective coach and leader (Collins, 2009, p. 170). One of the things that the author notes later in the book is using leadership and vision to help move a client forward. It is important to help the client not only set a goal but overcome any obstacles that may get in their way to help them reach their goals. Finding the vision may be challenging and demanding but it is important. A vision has to specific and focuses to the client’s life (Collins, 2009, p. 173). As the book continues the writer discusses some action steps that a life coach can take as well as the many obstacles that may occur during the coaching process as well. The main action step for a coach to develop a strategy and help client set goals (Collins, 2009, p. 206). Life coaching also has…
The fear of losing everything Craig Nasvik worked for, was the hardest part of his college experience. “It was the feeling of not being in charge,” Craig says, recalling back to his sophomore year when he blew out his right knee. The factor that led him to believe he could never play football again, and miss some of the most important years of his life. Craig attended the University of Minnesota Duluth on a full ride athletic scholarship. He was recruited out of the state of Wisconsin, where he was born and raised. It was the neighborhood that he grew up in, that gave him the competitive nature. Craig described his friends to the movie ‘Sandlot’. They were always outside, picking teams and playing different games.…
In the beginning of the play Romeo appears to be somewhat pretentious. He speaks dramatically of his "love" for Rosaline which, in fact, is probably not love at all. He speaks in rhyming couplets which makes his words sound insincere and rehearsed. He over dramatises the situation while talking to Benvolio (his cousin) which suggests that he is seeking sympathy or attention - such actions make him seem immature in comparison to the rational thinking characters in the play such as Paris.…

Life of Pi shows that we are entering a virtual age as Pi, a selfish murderer, is portrayed as a hero throughout the movie. In the beginning of the movie, Pi is portrayed as a smart, virtuous man – there is an emphasis on his strong faith in God, his love for his family and his knowledge of animals. However, later in the movie, Pi brutally murders a hyena after his family’s ship sank and manipulates the tiger that he was left with to do whatever he pleases. Although Pi faced anxiety because he was alone on a lifeboat with a tiger and with despair from thinking that he would die, these circumstances are not to blame for Pi’s awful behavior. Pi has the freedom to make his own decisions and is able to express his emotions in whichever way he wants, making him fully responsible for the course of his actions. Once Pi is rescued, the whole world starts to see him as a hero for his survival, however they do not process all of his wrongdoings. To make matters worse, the journalists that Pi spoke with after he was rescued do not even use the first story that he shares with them – the one involving human beings – because they claimed it was too gruesome, bringing Pi to replace human beings with animals in his second story. This also represents a virtual age because it sends the idea that wrongful actions are okay when they are presented using animals rather than human beings – truly showing the selfishness and carelessness of society. In conclusion, Pi’s inhumane actions are not acknowledged by the public, and furthermore Pi is being rewarded for his wrongdoings.…
After returning home from the mission field and going on staff at a Church, it wasn’t long before I found myself being used by God to counsel people. There was a lot of fear involved in the counseling, not from those who were being counseled, but from me, because I never had any formal training. Different life situations have caused me to receive counseling, but that was the extent of my counseling experience. After seeing God use me, an unqualified servant help marriages be restored, I felt the call to return to school to obtain a formal education in Pastoral Counseling. I will share how it all came about, what I have learned and what I expect the Lord to do through this formal training from taking PACO 500 Introduction to Pastoral Counseling.…
