Image Control: Breaking a Faulty Eyesight
by Talaya JessieWhat do you do when wisdom is calling you by your name? What do you do when purpose is yearning to be fulfilled in your spirit? What do you do when your mind can no longer grasp the anonymity of your destiny? Image Control takes you on a journey of discovering your perception. It helps you realize the factors in shaping your identity. The generation I am apart of is filled with so many creatives, but it seems as if we are afraid to pull out our maximum potential by the roots. It is almost as if we are waiting for people to see our value and validate why and what we were put on this earth to do. In a world where who you are and what you do matters the most, it is so easy to get consumed with the opinions of others. What if life was not necessarily about the things you accomplish? What if it was about how you accomplished those things? Was it with integrity or did you have to sacrifice a piece of yourself to be accepted? When you push past the boundaries and extremities of understanding your perception, you will then realize what was blocking your true self. You will begin to understand the why behind your actions. You will begin to understand the why to specific things your heart may desire. We all have dreams, misfortunes and pain. But what if we took back our treasure from the hands of others and the pit of our shortcomings? Will there be a possibility to sharpen our God given tools and gain understanding toward the use of those tools? Who would we actually become in the process? Will we continue to walk in facades? What if everyone in the world did the work to look deep within their soul? Would there be substance or lack? What if we took the blinders off? Would we only see the things that hurt us in life or the entirety of every situation we have had to encounter? The process of breaking a faulty eyesight is no easy one, but it leads you to an atmosphere that can no longer be controlled outside of you. The definitive question is will you do the work and be okay with looking a little funny while doing it?

Imagine This: Creating the Work You Love
by Maxine Clair&“Inspiring, engrossing, and informative, this is a book for all people—whether or not they consider themselves artists.&” —Tayari Jones, New York Times bestselling author Maxine Clair, award-winning author of the critically acclaimed short story collection Rattlebone and the novel October Suite, has assembled a deeply inspirational yet practical book to help readers access their inner creativity. Imagine This is a beautifully written set of deeply personal stories from which Clair draws examples of how we can be aware of the now, keep ourselves motivated, and create work of which we are proud. Imagine This explains how some of us consciously choose the vehicle through which we express our magnificence—be it business, art, science, or other—while others of us have dutifully plied a trade in arenas that society has suggested are worthwhile, with self-expression only fixed on a hobby. Both, Clair maintains, can contribute to a good life. Occasionally, however, a moment comes that is sufficiently insistent on deep examination. In that moment we float the possibility for expression of a greater self. Imagine This shows readers how to be aware of these moments and how our inner creativity is always seeking an outlet. By combining captivating memoir with step-by-step advice, Clair helps us find and develop our own unique and personal creative outlets. &“A guidebook to fulfilling one&’s aspirations and harnessing creative energy that seamlessly blends thorough practical advice with the vivid language and pathos of memoir.&” —Houston Style Magazine

Imagine the Life You'd Love to Live, Then Live It
by M.A. Maggie Oman Shannon Peg ConleyPeg Conley has been an artist all her life but, like many of us, took a long detour into the working world where she was a "corporate sales queen" in Seattle with a lot of success and a happy, busy family. Art became the thing she did on vacations, weekends and when she could carve time out of her busy life. Something gnawed at her, a nagging feeling that life might hold something else for her in the midst of it all. Then came the big "aha" moment-Peg heard a still small voice inside: "Imagine the life you want to live, then live it. It's that simple!" Her family encouraged Peg to pursue her passion.Despite a great deal of fear, Peg Conley did the thing she thought she could not do and dropped her big job, big house and big life and moved to San Francisco to start a business based on her artisan stationery. From a handful of handpainted cards, calendars and posters, her company Words & Watercolors was born and has been inspiring people, winning awards and raking in the sales ever since. Peg's intention with her work is to inspire and her art and writing all speak to life's great truths and those aha moments for which we all need reminders.What do you "imagine" your Ideal Life to be?

For some that means a quiet meditation where images might come to you. For others, you might write about something you've always had a longing to create, or a dream that seemed far away and not attainable yet it doesn't go away. The dream nudges at you, asking you to pay attention. Where words work for some people, pictures work for others. You may want to create a vision board. Gather your old magazines and begin ripping out the pictures that appeal to you, or draw your own images. Your Ideal Life will come alive via the images that resonate with you. Don't hesitate to pick up a pen, pencil or crayons even and fill the blank pages with doodles of any kind. Do you still think of becoming a nurse? Don't be disheartened, go online and research classes you can take at your local college to start the process. As someone once said, if you don't start now, 5 years from now you still will be where you are but if you begin with baby steps, in 5 years you could be in a completely different place! So ask yourself the question: "What does the life I long to live look like?" Imagine it! Draw it, write it, collage it and just plain dream it. Believe you can have it and then go about creating it as you take daily steps towards becoming an enhanced version of yourself! All successful people are big dreamers. They imagine what their future could be, ideal in every respect, and then they work every day toward their distant vision, that goal or purpose.

Imagining the World into Existence: An Ancient Egyptian Manual of Consciousness
by Normandi EllisReveals the secret language and words of power that enabled the ancient Egyptians to imagine the world into existence • Reveals ancient Egyptian Mystery teachings on immaculate conception, transubstantiation, resurrection, and eternal life • Explores the shamanic journeys that ancient Egyptian priests used to view the unconscious and the afterlife • Provides the essential spiritual tools needed to return to Zep Tepi, the creative source Drawing from the Egyptian Book of the Dead, the Pyramid texts, the Book of Thoth, and other sacred hieroglyphic writings spanning the three millennia of the Egyptian Mystery Traditions, Normandi Ellis reveals the magical language of creation and words of power that enabled the ancient Egyptians to act as co-creators with the gods. Examining the power of hieroglyphic thinking--how thoughts create reality--and the multiple meanings behind every word of power, the author shows how, with the Neteru, we imagine the world into existence, casting a spell of consciousness over the material world. Uncovering the deep layers of meaning and symbol within the myths of the Egyptian gods and goddesses, Ellis investigates the shamanic journeys that ancient Egyptian priests used to view the unconscious and the afterlife and shares their initiations for immaculate conception, transubstantiation, resurrection, and eternal life—initiations that later became part of the Christian mystery school. Revealing the words of power used by these ancient priests/sorcerers, she explains how to search for the deeper, hidden truths beneath their spells and shows how ancient Egyptian consciousness holds the secret of life itself. Revealing the initiatory secrets of the Osirian Mystery school, Ellis provides the essential teachings and shamanic tools needed to return to Zep Tepi--the creative source--as we face the transitional time of radical change currently at hand.

by Joanne Enid Díaz Rivera<P>Este libro nos apunta a enfocarnos en lo que somos y lo que queremos llegará por añadidura.

Este libro es un desafío hacia la reflexión, hacia la re conexión. <P>El volver a disfrutar de la vida. El vivir responsablemente cada día como si fuera el último. Cada día es único y debemos de tratarlo así. El mañana no está garantizado, por lo que debemos de valorar cada momento, nuestro momento.
