A Daughter Of Israel

Fred M. White

Sinopsis

'A Daughter of Israel' is an adventure-mystery novel by Fred M. White. The story begins by introducing us to two boys and a girl, the eldest boy perhaps sixteen, the others apparently his juniors by the brief span of two years. They did not look like English lads, for their faces were bolder cut and their eyes darker—the aquiline group of countenance which denoted the chosen people. The senior of the little group would have been handsome had it not been for a certain greedy, crafty look on his thin colorless lips, and the deformity between the shoulders. Abishai Abraham, conscious of his ugliness, conscious also of his crooked mind, cared but little for that, and took pride in his own misfortune from his earliest years—for a child he had never been—his hand had been against all men's, and as against his.

Law of Attraction - How Health...

Jenny Hashkins

Many people want more money. It’s a given. It’s simple. But what they don’t understand, is that some qualities need to be developed in order to receive more from the universe. 
One of those is stress management. We live in a hectic world with ever-pressing expectations and an increasing number of confusing directions to go into. What you need to do, is to manage your time, your cortisol levels, and your emotional intelligence in a way that you can stay calm while doing “your thing.” 
Another is self-control. Most people have times when they lack that self-control. The human body and the brain aren’t easy to master. They have tendencies that lean towards giving into temptation. But those temptations often stand in the way of our long-term goals by switching out lasting happiness and fulfilment for instant gratification. This needs to change, and in this book, at least one full chapter is strictly devoted to that topic. 
All in all, you will become more motivated and educated through this book.
