Hal Urban brings a lifetime of experience as a leading figure in
the Character Education movement to this follow-up to LIFE'S
GREATEST LESSONS, his phenonenal word-of-mouth bestseller that put
him on the self-help map. POSITIVE WORDS, POWERFUL RESULTS reveals
the awesome potential of a fundamental tool we all have at our
fingertips: language. With his down-to-earth approach that blends
clear-headed guidance with gentle humour, Urban reveals concrete
strategies for how we can use words to heal and strengthen, build
lasting relationships, improve performance, enhance morale,
celebrate our emotions and transform our lives and the lives of
those around us. Both prescriptive and uplifting, POSITIVE WORDS,
POWERFUL RESULTS share simple truths about the many ways in which
words make us human. As Mark Twain once said, 'I can live for two
months on one good compliment.'
Life's Greatest Lessons is a wise, wonderful book. In it, Hal Urban, a parent and an award-winning teacher, presents twenty principles that are as deeply rooted in common sense as they are in compassion. The topics, gathered from a lifetime of teaching both children and adults, span a wide range of readily understood concepts, including attitudes about money, understanding the real meaning of "success," and the importance of having fun. The book will help you find the best -- in the world, in others, and in yourself. Classic in its simplicity and enduring in its appeal, Life's Greatest Lessons helps us all rediscover that the desire to live a good life is timeless.
Hal Urban's latest book poses a challenge. It challenges us to
break through the notion of religious barriers to embrace faith in
any form. And within that faith, it asks us to honour the teachings
of wisdom and character, and encourages us to put those teachings
into practice. We all know the 10 Commandments. Most of us have no
problem avoiding murder, theft or adultery. We don't need to
recommit ourselves to following these commandments and we do
continue to honour them. They're sacred. The 10 Commandments of
Common Senselooks more closely at some of the Bible's other
"commandments": five things we should devote ourselves to doing
because they can enrich our lives and the lives of others. Many of
them are far more challenging than the original ten, but they
provide wise and practical advice for all of us, no matter what we
believe.

'You are the sum total of your choices' -- Wayne Dyer. Hal Urban's
message in CHOICES THAT CHANGE LIVES is as simple and as profound
as Wayne Dyer's life-altering quote. Through our daily actions, we
create a pattern for living. Before every action we make a choice
and, in that moment of free will, we have the ability to change our
lives. When you are stressed, pressured or threatened you will
often move toward your weakest character traits, creating a pattern
that does not support joyful, moral living. CHOICES THAT CHANGE
LIVES helps readers build a fortress of character traits that they
can rely on when faced with any decision. These choices support
Hal's inspirational message of positive living, peace of mind,
fewer regrets, embracing outcomes and seeing beyond your weaknesses
to make better choices over time. Throughout the book, Hal presents
qualities that lay the foundation for the dynamic choices that give
birth to joy-based living. This inspirational book reminds readers
about what it takes to make fruitful choices, the importance of
being a person of good character and that we can choose to be
better, happier and wiser at any time.
