#AskAnything - How Do You Hang in There When Business Gets Tough? - Duration: 1:33.
Hey everybody. I got an Ask Anything question that I wanted to answer.
Question: I've been in business for awhile and I've been wanting to give up...
do you have a solution for that?
Running your own business will always have obstacles.
Re-fire your inspiration by reading a book
Delivering Happiness from Tony Hsieh
Chip Conley's book, Peak: How Great Companies Get Their Mojo from Maslow
Tribal Leadership by Logan, King & Fischer-Wright
When you learn new information it creates some ah and wonder
New inspiration to dig deeper and learn more
In business you need persistence and determination
Sometimes you are the only one keeping the engine running
When I get fatigued I find that reading a book is helpful.

Library 411 Tag [CC] - Duration: 12:01.
Hi everybody, it's Anna, and welcome back to my booktube channel. We are gonna go
ahead and focus the damn camera... okay. Welcome back to my booktube channel!
Today is another tag video, ta-da! This time I have to thank the lovely Kathy
for essentially tagging me to do the library 411 tag, which I am very
much excited to do because I love the library so much so that about 1/3 of the
cards in my wallet are library cards. I will go ahead and link the original
creators of the tag as well as the tag questions down below in the description
box, but let us go ahead and get into the books, shall we? Okay, so these questions
are designed to familiarize you with resources and things that are available
at the library that you may not necessarily know about. I did know about
most of these, considering that I did work in a library for a few years when I
was in high school. I was basically like a page, which is the person that shelves
the books and organizes things and occasionally helps patrons use the
catalog, things like that... so let's go ahead and begin. Information desk: a book
that was helpful to you for any reason. This is probably going to get this video
demonetised, but that book was the one called "I heart female orgasm." You can
imagine why that might have been helpful for me! Return bin: what are two
books you read and immediately wanted to return because you disliked, or recent
DNF? Okay, for this I'm going to go with a recent DNF, and that was my book of the
month from last month, "the last equation of Isaac Severy" by Nova Jacobs. I just
really could not get into this book, and that made me sad because the premise was
so interesting: an elderly mathematician dies, leaving behind a mysterious formula,
and there's extenuating circumstances, but I just didn't like it.
It had everything that I expected to like, but I didn't, and I didn't like the
writing, so was happy to not finish that. Hold section: your most
anticipated release which you can't wait to get your hands on. Oh my goodness!
Let's go off on a very brief tangent about the hold section. I spend so much
time basically using the library catalogue as my own personal shopping
list to put things on hold for myself, yet I still go out and buy books, so
these are some recent releases that I actually purchased: "the long way to a
small angry planet" by Becky Chambers ; "not so stories" a short story collection
edited by David Thomas More with a foreword by Nikesh Shukla; and "the girl
who never read noam chomsky" which you can't really see because of the bright
glare, by Janet Casale. I'm sure you will hear about
those in a wrap-up or TBR at some point. Community classes and study rooms: a book
you loved that was a school assignment. So this one is technically cheating
because I was never actually assigned to read this as part of school. I didn't
read it until I was an adult, but it is probably my favorite book that is
typically assigned to school reading, and that is "The Giver" by Lois Lowry. If
you're not really sure what all the fuss is about with people talking about "the
giver," I'm not even going to try to explain it; I'm just going to put the
book in your hands and go "you're welcome!"
Okay, number five, computers: a modern classic you love or a favorite sci-fi.
I talk a lot about sci-fi and fantasy on this channel, so I thought I would switch
it up and talk about a modern classic that I love which is "the secret history"
by Donna Tartt.
DVD rentals: your most anticipated or favorite in recent history book to movie
or book to TV adaptation, or a book that felt cinematic, or a book you wish would
be adapted to a movie or TV series. Whew! Favorite one that I saw recently: "love, Simon"
Again, obvious reasons, cuz gay stuff, and I loved it, and it was cute and
adorable and a great adaptation. The one that I'm most excited for upcoming isn't
going to be too much of a surprise to anybody on booktube, but that is
"The Hate U Give" by Angie Thomas, which I believe is coming out next year as a film. Either
next year or 2020. Cannot wait to watch this. Okay, library bookstore/sale: a
random book you picked up with and really enjoyed, or show off your favorite
bookish merch. I'm going to do the favorite bookish merch because I pick up
a lot of random books. So I have two things for this. The first is this little
pin... we're gonna focus here... the first is this little pin that I got when I was in
third grade. It says "star reader" on it, and it was a prize for being the person in
my class who read the most pages that year. Can anybody say that they're really
surprised by this? I continuously read more than a hundred books every year,
despite, you know, needing to do things like feed myself walk a dog, maintain a
social life, yeah-- this [reading] is easily one of the most important things in my life,
always has been. And the other thing that is a piece of favorite bookish merch is
this shirt, which was to celebrate the 100th episode of the "all the books"
podcast that's put on by book riot discussing new book releases. It says
"happy reading" on this side, and on the back it says "all the books 100 episodes."
You cannot get this anymore, but I will go ahead and link to their site down
below if you'd like to learn more about the podcast and the other work that book
riot does as a website. nNext is teen or youth room: favorite YA or favorite book
you read as a kid or a book you can't wait to share with your future kids and
nieces and nephews. So a book that I can't wait to share with the kids in my
life, once they are old enough to read it I suppose, is "The Phantom Tollbooth" by
Norton Juster. The title really does not show up super
well... Wow, okay. I adored this book when I was a child. I turned all of my siblings
and my parents onto it as well, and I cannot wait to read it or have it read
to me by children in my future. Next is Museum tickets. This is
a cool thing that I actually did not know could happen until moving to
Seattle. A lot of libraries just by virtue of you having a library card will
give you free admission to local museums in your area, so definitely check that
out and see if that's something that your library offers. My library lets me
go to certain local museums for free once a month and then have reduced
admission at other times, but hey, that was something that I had no idea existed!
I just assumed that I would either not go see museums because they are
expensive in the United States, or I would just end up shelling out a fortune
to go see something, but I don't have to now, which is really awesome to know!
So that question was: a book that made you feel a bit more cultured upon completing
it. That book is "possession" by AS Byatt. This
is a literary fiction novel about the parallel stories of Victorian poets and
the scholars who study their lives. I adore this book. It is very dense; it is
extremely luscious, written in the style of an amazing amazing Victorian novel,
and it definitely made me feel very [high pitched british voice] "oh I'm a fancy person! I can go to a
cocktail party and chatter above the hoi polloi!" [normal voice] or whatever. It's not really a
snooty book, but it does deal a lot with culture and scholarship and academic
elitism, so it definitely made me feel very cultured after having finished it.
Next is overdrive or hoopla: an audiobook that you love. Now, I kind of came late to
the game when it comes to overdrive and hoopla because most of my audio book
listening I did when I was in high school, and my library didn't have that
capability, so I listened to a lot of things through audible, but my favorite
audiobook that I listened to you at that time was the audiobook of my favorite
modern classic "mr. penumbra's 24-hour bookstore" by Robin Sloan.
That was actually my introduction to the book. I didn't own a physical copy of the
book until maybe a year to six months after I had listened to the audiobook
for the first time. So yeah, awesome audiobook. Request a purchase: a
lesser-known book that you want more people to know about and read.
So this is the first in a series, and that is "village school" by Miss Read. That
is a pseudonym of a woman who was a schoolteacher in England in the 1950s
60s etc, and she wrote these semi- autobiographical series of novels about
her time as a village schoolteacher in post-war England. These books are
charmingly delightful and sweet and just a balm for the soul, if you are at all
interested in stories of friendship, the importance of teachers, the importance of
education and reading and community, do yourself a favor and check out these
books. We did have to request some of these for purchase at my library because
the series is quite long and they didn't have but really worn down beat-up copies
of some of them. So I did request a few of them for purchase, but it's well worth
it if you're just looking for a comforting read. Okay, and then sanctuary:
this is another thing that you may not know about your local library, but if you
are a person in crisis, especially if you are a youth in need of a safe place to
stay, you can talk to a librarian and they will have the resources to be able
to get you in touch with somebody that can help see to your needs. There's also
a lot of resources even if you are not immediately facing a crisis to put you
in touch with things like housing, hygiene resources, public health
resources, LGBTQ stuff--anything that you really need help with, you can find the
way to it with a librarian. The question for sanctuary is: a book that is your safety
net, is like home to you, or helped you through a troubled time. This book
continues to do that again and again, which is why I will never stop talking
about it, and that is "Jane Eyre" by Charlotte Bronte. It gave me a voice when
I felt like I had none. It gave me a person that I could look up to, admire,
emulate. It gave me a story that I could escape into, and it gave me a lasting
love of women's literature, especially from the 18th and 19th centuries, that
has persisted and led me to so many other great books and great authors. This
is... my second reading copy of this that I've
ever had. The first one was destroyed by a friend I unwisely lent it to, but it is
really well loved. This is back from when you could buy a paperback this size for
$7.95, so that gives you an idea of how long I've had this,
that I paid about eight dollars new for this book. I love it so much!
One day I'll need to make an entire video just on how important Jane Eyre as
a book and a character and a world means to me.
But for now, that is going to wrap up the library 411 book tag! I'm going
to leave a list of people that I tagged down below, but if you don't see your
name listed, don't take it personally, but please do complete the tag and make sure
to tag me on social media if you do decide that you're gonna make a video or
a blog post or anything like that about this, because I would really love
to see what you come up with. Thank you all so much for watching, and I will see
you in the next one! Bye!

Explore some volunteering opportunities, and find 1 or 2 that you might like doing - Duration: 2:42.
In a previous video, we talked about why it's so important to do some volunteer work while
you're in high school.
Now we get to the best part...figuring out a great way that you can volunteer, and that
you're going to have some fun with while you're at it.
So, how do you figure out where, and how, to volunteer?
My advice on this is really, simple.
Volunteer in an area that you're passionate about and that you'd want to keep doing over
the next few years.
Remember, colleges don't want to see you volunteering with lots of different organizations.
It's better to find something you're passionate about it, and stick with it over a few years.
So for example, if you love sports, you could coach athletics at an after-school program
for children.
If you love history, you could volunteer at a museum.
If you want to help the poor, you could volunteer at a soup kitchen,
or if you love animals, you could volunteer at an animal shelter.
Here's another thing to think about.
If you already know what kind of career you want to pursue, then find ways to volunteer
in that area.
This will give you an inside look at the reality of working, day-to-day, in that kind of job.
And this will help you determine if you're on the right track, and also gives you some
great experience for your resume.
So for example, if you want to be a doctor, you could volunteer at a hospital.
Ok.
So once you've figured out the kind of volunteering you want to do, the next step is to find actual
volunteer opportunities that could work.
As a first step, I recommend checking out a couple sites -- dosomething.org, and volunteermatch.org
-- both list thousands of volunteer opportunities.
Next, I recommend going to a site called projects-abroad.org.
This site lists some great volunteering opportunities for high school students, in countries around
the world.
Volunteering abroad can be an excellent thing to do during summer breaks.
Talk with your guidance counselor, who may know about some good opportunities in your
area.
Identify a particular skill you have, and consider using it to help others.
For example, if you're good with computers, maybe you could teach computer skills to elderly
residents of a nursing home.
And if you're the really ambitious type, here are a couple ideas that will help you truly
stand out on your college applications.
The first is to get creative and start your own service project.
There's a website called createthegood.org, which has some innovative ideas and how-to
guides to get started with your own teen service project.
And some students even go so far as to start their own non-profit.
I've given you lots of things to think about.
Now go ahead and look at the tasks on the page, so you can get started.
I think you're going to have some fun with these.

BEAUTY & GRACE: What Sarah Did After Being Ridiculed Will Make You Love Her Even More - Duration: 4:05.
BEAUTY & GRACE: What Sarah Did After Being Ridiculed Will Make You Love Her Even More
The constant media attacks of powerful women in the Trump administration never seems to
end.
First, the left relentlessly attacked Melania during the general election.
Even though Melania is a legal immigrant who speaks five languages.
Then, they switched their sights onto KellyAnne Conway after being the first woman to successfully
WIN a Presidential election as Campaign Manager.
Prior to her, only men held that coveted position.And, after the election, Ivanka Trump had the biggest
target on her back.
As "Assistant to the President" and First Daughter, apparently it was open season for
the left to attack her.
Never mind that she is successful, beautiful, and smart.
And, the President trusts her.
After maligning those three strong, smart and beautiful women, the media turns their
focus and ire onto Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
After the attack on her personal appearance during the Correspondent Dinner, one of the
most incredible testaments to Sarah's inner and outer beauty was bestowed upon her.
A veteran in the media business, was there at the dinner.
Benny Arthur Johnson who is currently with The Daily Caller and gives us an insider view.
Benny provides an insider perspective of the event that will hold you captivated.Benny
shared a Facebook post and photograph of himself with Sarah.
And what he has to say, can not be improved upon.
We have transcribed it for you.
Additionally, the original Facebook post is below.
Please enjoy this heartfelt view of "what happened" at the correspondent dinner by
Benny Arthur Johnson:"I was in the room last night when that wretched, leftist "comedian"
began attacking Sarah Sanders to her face.
It was disgusting.
You could not really see it on TV, but virtually no one in the room was laughing.
I saw even some of the most liberal reporters in the profession cringe with disgust.
If a conservative comedian was so vicious to a working mother in the Obama administration,
they would never get a job in the industry again.
The organizers of the dinner would have cut their mic.
The double standard is sickening.
However, there is something you must know about Sarah Sanders: She is a better and bigger
person than the sad leftists who attack her.
At the MSNBC after-party, I spoke with high-ranking members of Sarah's staff.
They were disgusted by the remarks – and tell me that the plan was for Sarah to walk-out
if they got too personal.Sarah however, stayed firm.
"I don't know how she does it," one of her closest confidants told me, "She
kills them with kindness – she puts up with it.
Good-hearted American people see that – and then she wins."
Members of the White House press corp tell me they were sending Sarah a flower basket
today – they felt so bad.
Then, Sarah Sanders walks into the party.
The MSNBC party.
A network that lives to savage and promote the godless vitriol that just attacked her.
Guess what?
Sarah Sanders was smiling.
She owned it.
I asked her about the attack and she shrugged with a smile and just said the attacks didn't
bother her and that she's praying for the comedian.
That is the kind of woman she is.
Flying into a city to cheap-shot a working mother to her face in front of a room of one
thousand journalists because you disagree with her politically is not brave.
It's the definition of a coward and a bully.
Putting up with it and forgiving that person afterward?
