Welcome to High School Dance, the sequel to How to Raise a Good Kid. I’m glad you’re here. This book is the culmination of a project that began shortly after my wife and I welcomed our son to the world. Like most first-time fathers, I felt a new and profound sense of responsibility and immediately became determined to pass along every lesson I believed was important. So even though my pride and joy was only drooling, pooping and sleeping at this point, and was years away from absorbing his dad’s hard-earned wisdom, I refused to let any of those pesky details get in my way.
First, I made a list of the events of my childhood that taught me the most, the ones that made the biggest impressions, both good and bad. This exercise forced me to revisit many harrowing experiences such as batting zero in little league baseball, my chronic addiction to a blanket, my disastrously unsuccessful try-out for the role of Winthrop in The Music Man, and the time I mooned the entire sixth grade. I wanted to let my son know whatever hardship he might face; his father had already been there, learned something of value and survived. I also wanted to let him know about all the fun and joy I experienced as a child and the love my parents showed me.
After compiling my list, however, I realized it wasn’t going to be enough. What if, God forbid, I wasn’t around to tell him the full story behind each enumerated item? I couldn’t bear the thought so I decided to turn the list into a book of stories about my childhood. Over time, the project evolved into two books: one about my grade school years, How to Raise a Good Kid, and one about my junior and senior high school years, High School Dance.
I truly hope you enjoy these collections. Few times in life are more memorable than our school years. Humiliation, heartbreak and failure are abundant, and that’s on a good day. No matter who you are, coming of age is exciting, confusing and sometimes downright dangerous, and I’ve tried to capture both the agony and the ecstasy. My wife and I were fortunate enough to add a daughter to our family in the intervening years and my great hope is that she and her brother will someday read these stories, learn a few lessons, come to know their father even better, and above all, remember how much I love them.

FastPass+ rules have changed as of May 2016. This guide is the most up-to-date and current guide on Amazon.
Let’s face it; a Disney vacation is not cheap. These vacations can be very expensive. A lot of families aren’t able to go every year. For some families on a budget, it might be their only trip.
This is why getting the most out of your Disney vacation is so important.
I notice right away the families in the parks that didn’t plan and prepare. These are the same people that show up at the Magic Kingdom shocked to find out that all the fast passes to meet Anna and Elsa are gone and the standby line is 3 hours long. In the meantime their daughter is crying.
How was the average Joe supposed to know that you had to make a reservation 60 days in advance to get a FastPass+ reservation for some of the more popular rides?

A comprehensive list of all FastPass+ attractions.
A list of which attractions that make the most use of your FastPass+ attractions.
A list of which attractions that are a waste of a FastPass+ reservation.

Rules and restrictions of the FastPass+ and MDX system.
Secret strategies and hints on how to make the best use of the FastPass+ and MDX system.

You would think family addiction, abuse, homelessness, teenage pregnancy, crippling anxiety and financial struggle would be enough to put a woman in her grave. As a single mother cluttered with a messy adolescence, the author had plenty of adventure; still, it wasn't the kind she wanted. Internal disarray revealed itself as chaotic outward circumstances, including a career cleaning homes and a head just above water. But, this is what dreams look like up close; messy, uncomfortable and sometimes painful. Craving an existence infused with abundance and peace, she determined to robe herself in armor and face weaknesses head-on. Through pilfering wisdom from the dark clutch of fear, the vision of freedom she yearned for was surrendered.
As a Maid-Turned-Doctor, Jessica easily demonstrates how to obtain abundance through a firsthand account of a miserable life altered into magical livelihood. Having one foot on the humble "school of hard knocks" side of the fence, and the other firmly planted on the professional, scientific and spiritual side, she compassionately comes alongside the reader to empower a remarkable existence. Each chapter is delicately woven with a blend of heartfelt memoir and educated reasoning designed to naturally uncover how to manifest dreams into reality. If you are one of the millions who lives with feeling unfulfilled, unhappy and unsure, you'll find the answers to change that inside.
Self-Maid removes limitations and empathetically addresses personal power by offering:
•The author's personal accounts of overcoming hardships.
•Explanation of how and why we behave in the manners we do.
•Understanding fear, anxiety, depression, phobias, and traumas and how they develop.
•Simple ways to adjust outdated habits into new, energizing patterns.
•A discovery of the true nature in which everything is moved forward in growth, and ways to gracefully flow with it.
•The essential nature of your spirit and how to utilize it for speedy improvement in all areas of life.
•Intentional methods for expanding your life in exact ways.
Self-Maid offers a precise, detailed formula for completely changing your life no matter what circumstance or condition you are faced with.
Diabetes is among the fastest growing diseases in the world. In the U.S. 1 in 3 adults over age 20 has high blood sugar and 1 in 4 adults over age 65 is fully diabetic. Yet, nearly every single person could avoid high blood and diabetes if they understood its real cause—and Eat, Chew, Live provides exactly the new science & powerful inspiration to help people prevent this serious disease from altering their lives—without drugs. Eat, Chew, Live offers a revolutionary new science-based explanation of what really happens in the body to cause high blood sugar. While traditional medicine blames the condition on “insulin resistance,” Dr. Poothullil disagrees, offering systematic proof of a far better biological explanation for it. According to him, diabetes is not a hormonal disease; in fact, he demonstrates that insulin resistance is not even logical. Instead, high blood sugar and diabetes are the result of overconsumption, especially of grain-based carbohydrates that cause a normal bodily metabolism--cells burning fatty acids rather than glucose--to go haywire. When people understand this insight, everything about preventing high blood sugar and diabetes becomes clear. Eat, Chew, Live goes on to present three other revolutionary ideas to help people get in tune with their body’s need for nutrition, their hunger and satisfaction signals, and the causes of their overeating. Dr. Poothullil’s offers insightful and persuasive advice about why avoiding complex carbohydrates—even “whole grain” and “gluten free” -- is the key to losing weight and preventing high blood sugar. He goes on to teach readers how to eat mindfully, chewing fully to enjoy and savor food. Many readers report that the book helped them lose weight, get in touch with their body, and reduce their diabetes medications significantly. Eat, Chew, Live is unlike other books on diabetes, as nearly every one accepts insulin resistance as the cause. Dr. Poothullil theory is a medically sound new approach to explaining high blood sugar—and the implications are enormous for the entire medical approach to treating high blood sugar with medications rather than teaching people “how to eat what they enjoy to lower blood sugar.” Eat, Chew, Live may be one of the most important health books of the decade, as its 4 revolutionary ideas will save many lives. Eat, Chew, Live has over 30 illustrations and 2 storyboards to explain the science visually. The entire book is in color.

Launching a book on Amazon is a complex strategy that takes months to be correctly understood.

Most of the scammers and all of the so called ‘online entrepreneurs’ will tell you that “self-publishing is a passive income stream – you only do it once and then you’re done – money will start rolling in over and over again, month after month. “
Now let me tell you the sad truth… Everything you heard is completely WRONG.
There is no such thing as 100% passive income stream – any kind of business needs maintenance, even passive ones. As a wise person once said, “If you’re not growing, you’re dying.”
Once you (successfully) launch a book, after a while, it will start lagging in sales – this means that you will slowly make less and less sales than you would have initially.

There's something going on that they don't want you to know about. Everything looks normal on the surface, but something is fundamentally wrong - isn't it? You can feel it.
The truth is, a massive financial reset is already underway. The 2008 financial crisis that nearly collapsed the global financial system was never fixed; it was papered over. Trillions of dollars have been created out of thin air to accomplish this. The problems are now much larger.
The banks are bigger. The governments are bigger. The debt is bigger. The derivative market is bigger. The leverage is higher. The system is more fragile than ever.
These problems are neglected on your television programming, but they are obvious for those who simply look. We are living with a legacy financial system constructed by 20th century thinking. The rules have changed, but our approach has not.
There will be ten thousand people turning 65 in the United States every single day for the next decade. Each of these people will expect the legacy systems they supported their entire life to now support them.
But there is a problem.
These legacy systems already run deficits, and there are far more people exiting the systems than entering them.
Change is approaching...
Those who recognize the coming reset can position themselves to weather the storm, and thrive in its wake. Those who remain ignorant to what is coming will fall behind.
If you want to understand this budding financial reset and learn specific strategies you can implement to put yourself in a position to thrive then The Individual is Rising may be the most important book you read this year.
This book is not about propagating fear, worry, or doubt; it is about understanding followed by action. It is about implementing anti-fragile strategies to weather the macroeconomic storm created by the central bank/national government alliance. It is about fundamentally challenging the conventional wisdom of the status quo. It is about creating a future based on individual self-empowerment.
