How many men can one woman fend off? As many as Vicki can handle in book two of the Bartender Babe Chronicles. Bring it on, boys.

Think Before You Think is about why you do what you do. It is about: • why you are happy in one moment, miserable the next and elated in another • why the rich get richer, sick get sicker and lucky get luckier. It is about: • understanding how you live in an artificially created reality • how to exit the matrix, your mind creates by thoughts and emotions • how to find clarity, confidence, and connection in your life and business. Think Before You Think explains why: • it’s not WHAT you do • it’s not HOW you do It’s all about how you THINK and FEEL. ‘It’s not the things in your life, it’s your thinking behind the things that shapes your destiny.’ – Harish Gulati

Think Before You Speak; Or, The Three Wishes is a children's tale by Catherine Ann Turner Dorset. Dorset was a British writer of rhymes for children. Excerpt: "Now, by the honour of a Spright Who in good actions takes delight, By Mab, the sovereign of fays, Who sports beneath the moon's pale rays, I grant to you and your good dame The first Three Wishes that you name! Think what will best your state amend, And claim it from your grateful friend! 17Together you had best advise, And as you are humane, be wise! For should you foolishly decide, By your own choice you must abide; Nor further does my power extend, Howe'er dispos'd to be your friend."

Americans have a gift for coining proverbs. "A picture is worth a thousand words" was not, as you might imagine, the product of ancient Chinese wisdom -- it was actually minted by advertising executive Fred Barnard in a 1921 advertisement for Printer's Ink magazine. After all, Americans are first and foremost a practical people and proverbs can be loosely defined as pithy statements that are generally accepted as true and useful. The next logical step would be to gather all of this wisdom together for a truly American celebration of shrewd advice.A Dictionary of American Proverbs is the first major collection of proverbs in the English language based on oral sources rather than written ones. Listed alphabetically according to their most significant key word, it features over 15,000 entries including uniquely American proverbs that have never before been recorded, as well as thousands of traditional proverbs that have found their way into American speech from classical, biblical, British, continental European, and American literature. Based on the fieldwork conducted over thirty years by the American Dialect Society, this volume is complete with historical references to the earliest written sources, and supplies variants and recorded geographical distribution after each proverb.Many surprised await the reader in this vast treasure trove of wit and wisdom. Collected here are nuggets of popular wisdom on all aspects of American life: weather, agriculture, travel, money, business, food, neighbors, friends, manners, government, politics, law, health, education, religion, music, song, and dance. And, to further enhance browsing pleasure, the editors have provided a detailed guide to the use of the work. While it's true that many of our best known proverbs have been supplied by the ever-present "Anonymous," many more can be attributed to some very famous Americans, like Ernest Hemingway, Abraham Lincoln, Benjamin Franklin, Mark Twain, J. Pierpont Morgan, Thomas Alva Edison, Abigail Adams, and Ralph Waldo Emerson, to name but a few offered in this fascinating collection.Who wouldn't want to know the origin of "the opera ain't over till the fat lady sings?" This uniquely American proverb and many more are gathered together in A Dictionary of American Proverbs. A great resource for students and scholars of literature, psychology, folklore, linguistics, anthropology, and cultural history, this endlessly intriguing volume is also a delightful companion for anyone with an interest in American culture.

Words carry enormous power, the power to heal or to wound, to encourage or to dishearten, to speak truth or to deceive, to praise or to criticize. They can be the key to our success or the reason for our downfall. So, how do we harness that power? How do we learn to use our words to their greatest potential? Robert Morris shows you how God can bless your life through the words you speak.

Ms. Snowden introduces the THiNK Test to Tyaja’s class. Mrs. Snowden tells the kids that T = True, H = Helpful, N = Necessary, and K = Kind. If what you’re about to say isn’t any of these things, she tells them, you shouldn’t say it. Later that day, when Tyaja is about to criticize her friend Dhavi’s new haircut, she is stopped by four little elves sporting the letters T, H, N, and K, who reinforce Ms. Snowden’s lesson and remind Tyaja how friends should treat friends. Tyaja learns that she is the “I” in THiNK!
