Flip your life : how to find opportunity in distress-in real estate, business, and life / by El Moussa, Tarek,1981-author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Tarek El Moussa is everywhere, with 1.3M engaged social media followers and stars on HGTV's hit show Flipping 101 w/ Tarek El Moussa as well as the new HGTV docu-series The Flipping El Moussas, where he combines his passions for real estate and family in every project. With over a decade of experience, flipping close to 1,000 properties, selling over 1,000 houses, owning multiple apartment buildings and self-storage facilities, El Moussa is a successful entrepreneur, real estate expert and investor. He has a personal rental portfolio of over 200 properties, a wholesale real estate company, a fix and flip real estate company called Tarek Buys Houses, a private equity investment firm called TEM Capital, a production company called Homemade Productions, a real estate education company called Homeschooled by Tarek, and a solar company called Solar Vision. It will surprise Tarek's fans to learn that it wasn't an easy road to the top. After seeing a promising baseball career end before it even began with a devastating shoulder injury, a young and aimless Tarek had no clue what he wanted to do with his life. So, he drank. Finally, one night, Tarek decided not to drink, and instead stepped outside to look at the night sky for the first time since he could remember. That was when he decided his life needed to change-a lot. And fast. In Flip Your Life, Tarek uses his story-that of a lost young man trying to find his way in the world-to take us through the steps of how we can achieve our own goals. Whether in real estate or life, Tarek reveals his proven four-step process: Evaluate Emulate Renovate Duplicate In chapters such as "Enlist Your Crew" and "Renovate Relentlessly," Tarek walks us through how to identify our goals, find the people to help us accomplish them, and then make those first steps with confidence. Along the way, he immerses us in personal and intimate moments that reveal the man behind the beloved HGTV persona, and sheds light for the first time on pivotal moments in his life. From the very early days of his real estate career, including tremendous financial highs followed by devastating lows, filming Flip or Flop with his ex-wife Christina, to his earth-shattering bouts with thyroid and testicular cancer, a crippling back injury, his subsequent addiction to steroids, and his long and hard-earned path to recovery. A natural coach and teacher, Tarek offers us a candid look behind the camera, making Flip Your Life a practical, easy-to-use guide to help readers everywhere learn how to turn their lives from desultory, unhappy "flops" into focused, meaningful, hugely fulfilling success stories"--

The bachelor : a novel / by Palmer, Andrew,1981 August 4-author.;
"Reeling from a breakup with his almost-fiancee, the narrator of Andrew Palmer's first novel returns to his hometown in Iowa to house-sit for a family friend. There, a chance flick of the TV remote and a correspondence with an old grad school classmate plunge him into unlikely twin obsessions: the reality TV show The Bachelor and the Pulitzer Prize-winning poet John Berryman. As his heart begins to mend, his fixation with each deepens and calcifies, and somewhere along the way, art and "reality" become harder and harder to distinguish from life. Love interests accumulate and then fall away: an old girlfriend calls and he answers; he meets a young woman at the dry cleaner. Soon he finds himself corresponding intimately, regularly with other suitors (as Berryman did in his lifetime), participating in a group outing (as The Bachelor does each season), and trying to puzzle through the strange turn his life seems to have taken"--

Forever Terry : a legacy in letters / by Fox, Darrell,1963-compiler.;
"Terry Fox defined perseverance and hope for a generation of Canadians. Forever Terry reflects what Terry's legacy means to us now, and in the future. 2020 marks the 40th anniversary of the Marathon of Hope. Celebrities (both from Canada and beyond) regularly ask the Terry Fox Foundation what they can do to support Terry's cause and legacy. The answer: write a short piece telling readers what Terry Fox means to them. A memory. A moment of inspiration. A glimpse of hope to a patient. A jolt of strength. Or even a moment of sympathy. Forever Terry is a collection of 40 personal letters from 40 prominent celebrities displaying what Terry Fox means to them, and gives voice to an icon whose example spoke much louder than his words. The list of contributors includes Bobby Orr, Margaret Atwood, Catriona Le May Doan, Gordon Lightfoot, Douglas Coupland, and many more.".
