  Essays on Wealth Generosity and...

  Is wealth inherently good? Is it inherently evil? How much is morally acceptable to enjoy? Should all excess be given away? Do we feel ashamed of having wealth? Do we feel “blessed” by it? How much of our wealth is due to our own hard work and smart decisions, and how much is due to social injustices? Answers to such questions are not clear. As a result, many Christians are confused, divided, and uneasy about these topics, and choose to keep faith, personal finance, and social justice compartmentalized. Faith is relegated to a social activity on Sundays, personal finance is a household chore, and social justice is only a cause to be advocated for with social media posts and voting choices. While this is certainly the easy route, it is an unsatisfying way of life which damages progress towards true human unity.In Essays on Wealth, Generosity, and Legacy, Travis C. Mallett invites fellow Progressive Christians to struggle with these ancient questions together. Each essay brings the topics of faith, personal finance, and social justice into uncomfortably close proximity with each other. Tensions are acknowledged and harmonies are highlighted. This book discusses diverse topics, such as the relationship between personal finance and social justice, the moral status of wealth, biblical interpretation, evolutionary wisdom, investing, minimalism as the modern face of contentment, wealth as a spiritual motivator, legacy and the afterlife, and unity.This book does not promise answers to our questions. Instead, it calls us to engage with our sacred responsibility to struggle with them and have the courage to live in their tension.

  Humans may have reached a time in their history where the number of possibilities they have regarding the way they do things and solve problems exceed by far any hope they have ever had before: the human race can boast having travelled in outer space, exploring other planets, galaxies – just in case we fail with the “little” we have got. It has managed to find cures to many of the diseases which used to kill us by the millions. For the last century, humans have developed technologies and devices which help them move forward, farther and faster, in spite of the problems mother nature or natural evolution might have brought their ways. In fact, they have not only managed, they thrived. So much so that after War World II, in the USA for instance, there was an unprecedented economic and baby boom that gave hope and left the scars of the global deflagration far behind in the back of the people’s minds: the look was only forward. The world population has more than tripled compared to the 1950s. We are now more numerous than ever, so numerous that many are wondering where we could find the resources to feed such a large number and continue living and avoid conflict. As a result, we are busier than ever, not only to move to the next natural step in our evolution and progress, but also to find solutions to our newly-born, man-made issues humanity is now facing. Humans may have succeeded to exceed their limitations so far; however, not without paying a price: stress and anxiety, depression, sleep troubles. The fast pace of our modern living has, thus, not come without paying a toll. What to do? While we cannot do anything about the fact that we were born in this day and age or about the way in which society as a whole chooses to do things, there is something we can do about the way in which we relate to what is happening outside ourselves. Read this quick guide and you will find out how easy it can be to transgress your difficulties.

  Consistency Selling

  Are your sales results always awesome? Or do some months leave you wondering if you’ll be able to pay your mortgage? 
  One of the most difficult parts of being a professional salesperson is managing the emotional peaks and valleys that accompany the ups and downs of sales. But according to Weldon Long, there is no challenge you can’t overcome, and he shows how salespeople can thrive in the face of adversity if they are just willing to create the right mindset and implement the right sales process—consistently.
  
  Unreliable performance and unpredictable results are likely, says Long, because you aren't doing the same thing consistently on every sales call. If sales activities are random, results will be random. And random sales activities will never accidentally start producing consistent sales results, just as consistent sales activities will never start producing random results. It just can’t happen.
  
  Whether it’s a bad economy, a cheap competitor, bad leads, or a personal challenge, Long provides step-by-step advice on how you can make committed, consistent activities part of your daily sales routine so you will consistently be rewarded with the sales you deserve. 
  
  Weldon Long is a successful entrepreneur, sales expert, and author, who—in 2003—walked out of a homeless shelter where he was living and within sixty months, had grown a sales organization to over $20 million in sales.
