Rule your day : 6 keys to maximizing your success and accelerating your dreams / by Osteen, Joel,author.;
"Some people live in a constant state of worry, upset, and negativity because they let everything in. They listen to the news all day, go to lunch with judgmental people, or get cut off in traffic, leaving the rest of their day pretty sour. They're not ruling their day. No one can keep all bad things from happening, but you can stop them from getting down in your spirit. The less time you spend in bad situations or with small-minded people, the better off you're going to be. Don't sit inactive with people who don't believe in you, people who don't come into agreement with your dreams. You control what you allow into your day, your mind. God has given you the authority to rule over your attitude and your response. Let God control what you can't. If you'll do your part, then He will do His-making things happen that you couldn't even imagine. With Rule the Day, you'll be able to go out each day expecting the best, knowing everything may not be perfect. There may be delays, interruptions, difficult people, but you'll learn to not let these things ruin your day. Know that God is directing your steps and has given you the power to remain calm in times of adversity. Every day can be a good day, if you rule your atmosphere."--Provided by publisher.

My life, my love, my legacy / by King, Coretta Scott,1927-2006,author.; Reynolds, Barbara A.,author.;
"The life story of Coretta Scott King--wife of Martin Luther King Jr., founder of the King Center for Nonviolent Social Change, and singular twentieth-century American civil rights activist--as told fully for the first time, toward the end of her life, to one of her closest friends. Born in 1927 to daringly enterprising black parents in the Deep South, Coretta Scott had always felt called to a special purpose. One of the first black scholarship students recruited to Antioch College, a committed pacifist, and a civil rights activist, she was an avowed feminist--a graduate student determined to pursue her own career--when she met Martin Luther King Jr., a Baptist minister insistent that his wife stay home with the children. But in love and devoted to shared Christian beliefs and racial justice goals, she married King, and events promptly thrust her into a maelstrom of history throughout which she was a strategic partner, a standard bearer, a marcher, a negotiator, and a crucial fundraiser in support of world-changing achievements. As a widow and single mother of four, while butting heads with the all-male African American leadership of the times, she championed gay rights and AIDS awareness, founded the King Center for Nonviolent Social Change, lobbied for fifteen years to help pass a bill establishing the US national holiday in honor of her slain husband, and was a powerful international presence, serving as a UN ambassador and playing a key role in Nelson Mandela's election. Coretta's is a love story, a family saga, and the memoir of an independent-minded black woman in twentieth-century America, a brave leader who stood committed, proud, forgiving, nonviolent, and hopeful in the face of terrorism and violent hatred every single day of her life."--Provided by publisher.
