Bøger af Adair F White-Johnson

This book was written because for many years Dr. White-johnson has been constantly asked "how do you do it all?" "How do you manage your life so it flows so easily?" At first, she was a little taken aback by these questions because she didn't think that her life was easy and it never had been easy. She knew what she had gone through to become the woman that she is but she also knew that folks were only looking at the finished product and really didn't know the story behind the actual process. They were unaware of her personal values and beliefs, the heartache and the sacrifices she endured and they didn't know about the abundance of blessings that she had received. Dr. White-johnson believed that she lived her life like many others but after receiving so many inquiries about how she managed her life she began to think that perhaps there was more to her story than she realized. She looked at it as just her unique approach to my life...Happiness is her ultimate goal so she crafted a system that works for her. She is dedicated to everything that she does and she commits only to excellence... She takes her mistakes as lessons learned and only "stumbles softly" from them. She works hard to "go hard" and this is what this book is all about. This book provides a glimpse into her world...the things that she does daily that keep her on the right side of life. Is she perfect? Hell no! But is she a fighter? Hell yes! With every inhaled breath that she breathes and to the core of her soul she fights for her sanity, blessings and existence every day. These are the skills that have worked for her over the years and she strongly believes that if you give life the best that these can work for you too! In this book Dr. White-johnson shares her personal struggles for significance illustrated with stories of her own life experience about how she has needed to "Go Hard and Stumble Softly" in her quest for success. She focuses on creating action plans, "popcorn responses" and self-analysis as she teaches readers that "Going Hard" is not just doing things, because it is a mindset. It is about believing that you can "be hard" despite life's circumstances, socioeconomic status, race, class and perhaps even gender. And when life is rough and you stumble, you do it softly and you get right back up again. It's all about mind over matter, as much as you mind is as much as it matters and if you don't mind, then it shouldn't matter... The book is divided into unique parts: G: Getting over yourself O: Overcoming your odds H: Hesitancy, Heart, Honesty, Hustling and a healthy balance A: Anger and Artillery R: Remembrance, Resilience, Restoration, Renewal and Righteousness D: Dreams, Depth and Destiny It also includes discussions about Raising Children Hard, Stuff You Need to Go Hard, "Mama Musts" and Twelve Teasers to Go Hard. Dr. White-johnson's positive perspective of life is consistent throughout the chapters and the book serves as an inspirational and motivational guide for anyone searching for positive change in their lives.

Much of what I have written in this book is grounded in my own growth, healing process and quest to become a more effective and successful leader in my personal and my professionl lives. My thoughts and my words are delivered from the crevices of my soul, birthed from the core of my existence, developed by my belief in the power of prayer and emerged from the strength of believing in who I am and what I do. The inspirational quotes in this book are designed to empower you to think about your life differently and to help you make choices that will lead you towards emotional prosperity because you deserve to be happy. Remember, "although you may not be where you want to be, you don't have to be where you used to be either."

Sometimes life is just rough and no one understands. No one "get it" and we feel alone. We know we should know more and do more but we're not sure where to begin. We want to make changes in our lives but we need help and we feel like there is nowhere to turn for that help. Life as a teenager can be quite confusing and overwhelming but it can also be uplifting and empowering. Dr. Adair shares her ideas about how to help you move towards positive changes in your life. She shares significant moments in her life when she had to make difficult decisions, shift directions and create actions plans that taught her how to be successful. Yes, life is not always what we want it to be and sometimes we feel as though we have hit "rock bottom" but this book shares exactly what you need to "Get Over It!" so you can get through it and keep it moving...Just what you need to do as a teenager!

Sometimes life just doesn't work the way you want it to...no matter how hard you try. Sometimes love doesn't work the way you want it to...no matter how much you give. Sometimes relationships just don't work out the way you wanted them to...no matter how much time and energy you invested in them. And then you think that you don't have the strength to deal with it all. So now what do you do? The words in this book are designed to motivate and inspire you to "Get Over It in 30 days!" through faith, hope, encouragement, positivity, strength and action. "Get Over It!" means just to let things go that do not serve a positive purpose in your life. It means that you should do everything from the core of your existence... not holding back and sucking in the final morsel of air to exhale confidently. You learn from your mistakes and use those mistakes as starting points towards change. Never embracing failure but knowing when to accept defeat. Understanding what makes you weaker but focusing on what makes you stronger. It means that you love hard, play hard, work hard, Mommy hard, Daddy hard, wife hard, husband hard, sister hard, brother hard and friend hard! You never skimp on challenges because you have invested your total self. This is the only way you can get over and get through things to keep it moving...the only way that you can bounce back after hitting rock bottom. This coupled with the strength and the faith that comes from your belief and commitment to a higher power can only empower you. I want to show you how you can still BELIEVE even when you feel as though you have hit rock bottom...You can still BELIEVE when you think that you are all alone. You can still BELIEVE when you question the steps God has ordered for you, and you can still BELIEVE when you start to wonder if God ordered any steps for you in the first place. I leaned on the triplet shields of grace, faith and mercy to give me the strength to believe that my life could only get better and that the path to greatness for me would be clearer. Much of what I have written in these messages are grounded in my own growth and healing process. It comes from deep places of pain and heartache and the crevices of my soul. But you know what? It's a year later and I am still standing, I am still smiling and I am okay. I am walking, living, proof of the power of prayer and the strength of believing in who I am and what I do.The inspirational messages in this book are designed to empower you to make choices that will lead you towards emotional prosperity because you deserve to be happy. The B.E.L.I.E.V.E. system teaches you how to begin to Get Over It and steps to incorporate into your daily life. And although you may not be "fixed" in 30 days after reading this book, you will be able to think about your life in a different way. The primary intent of this book is to provide a daily message that will inspire and empower your thought process and begin to change your behavior patterns. Remember, "although you may not be where you want to be, you don't have to be where you used to be either." Your actions make a difference and that is the focus of this book...to activate your actions to move you towards positive change.
