Butterflies and Hazel Eyes: A Lake Superior Romance by Katie Mettner

Never one to linger, computer security expert Charity Puck doesn’t expect to be romanced by the small-town charm of her latest job. But when her RV rolls into Plentiful, Wisconsin, nestled along the breathtaking shores of Lake Superior, she’s convinced nothing could be more alluring—until she gazes into the delectable hazel eyes of her new client.

Underestimated due to the crutches on his arms and braces on his legs, CEO and researcher Gulliver Winsome doesn’t expect his job to put his life in danger. But as he rushes to bring an eco-friendly pesticide to market, in an attempt to save the pollinators, he finds himself the target of a sinister plot—uncovered by the tiny blonde dynamo he hired to fix his servers.

Someone is trying to steal Gulliver’s research, and they’ll stop at nothing to bury the evidence. With feelings in bloom and the would-be couple’s lives in peril, it’s up to Charity to decipher the clues before they both end up in the Lady of the Lake’s cold-water castle.

About Mental Toughness For Young Athletes – Volume 2 Grit – How To Use The Secret Mindset Hack

Finally! Part 2 Of The Best Selling Mental Toughness For Young Athletes Book!

If you are reading this you probably have a young athlete who struggles with in-game stress and maybe even sports performance anxiety. Moses and Troy Horne here again. Your mental toughness guides! Hopefully, you already have the first book. That book (Mental Toughness For Young Athletes – Eight Proven 5-Minute Mindset Exercises For Kids And Teens Who Play Competitive Sports) is the foundation for what you are about to learn in this book.  Like the first book, this book was written by Moses and me as well! This is the second step in the process. You see, we found that once we did all of the stuff in the first book we were met with new challenges. In this book, we talk about how we got through the next level of challenges and how we leveled up.

I’m talking interest from 10 Division 1 schools and counting level up. Yup… This one is about GRIT! That one trait that makes your mental toughness work long term. That one trait that helps your young athlete stand out!

As of the time of the writing of this book Moses Horne is a 16-year-old elite athlete who is the starting PG for “The ROCK school” former high school of Joel Embid! We can talk directly about the triumphs and struggles of working towards being mentally tough. This is the only book (Besides our first book) that is written by a young athlete from an actual young athlete’s perspective.

We know where you are and we know how to help you help your young athlete find their mental fortitude.

Most of the books that we read were not a good fit for young athletes because they were either written for adults or not written for youth athletes in COMPETITIVE sports. There is a difference.

Since there wasn’t anything out there for elite young athletes we created it! 100+ reviews on our last book can’t be wrong!

We took the long journey of ups and downs. We struggled to help our young athlete find his mental toughness. IT WAS ROUGH! Luckily along the way, we found the winning formula thanks to being able to talk with sports icons personally. We launched a podcast together called Hoopchalk Basketball Podcast and on it, we interviewed sports MENTAL TOUGHNESS GIANTS, like…

Chauncey Billups, Tywanna Smith, Keiko Yoshimine, Earl Boykins, Jason Richardson and Kobe Bryant!

We studied what they did and said based on our interviews and we came up with a mental toughness plan that worked!

However, we found that there was another level!  (There are levels kid! – That will be funnier once you read the book!)  We are going to share with you what we learned about taking your mental toughness to the next level. One step closer to MambaMentality!

Is your child super passionate about their sport?

Do they seem like they are losing their love for the game because their teammates may not be as dedicated as they are?

Do you want to help them keep their fire and go on to higher levels of mental toughness?

Does your kid want that on the court and in the locker room fire that gets the attention of high-level coaches?

If you answered yes to these questions then you are in the right place. This book is their second-degree blackbelt in mental toughness and GRIT! This book is part 2 of the answer that you have been looking for! I can say this with confidence because we have used everything that we are going to share with you. This stuff WORKS! I look forward to sharing what we learned with you!

Order your copy now!

Make sure that your youngster doesn’t miss out on going to LEVEL 2 of this mental toughness thing!

Hello Everyone!

So glad that you are here! My hope is that my books help you challenge your current way of thinking about what is possible not only in sports but in life. The power of the mind is unlimited. If you can learn to control your mind the rest of your life will be a lot easier. My hope is that the books that I create will help you live your best life. I also want to be a catalyst to your “Why Not Me” part of life. A little back story about that.

When I was a kid people told me that my dream of becoming a professional musician was “UNREALISTIC” one of my friends at the time even told me when I left to pursue my dreams in Los Angeles and I quote…

“You’ll be back. I’m going to stay here in Houston and I’ll make it before you do.” Challenge accepted. Needless to say despite their words of encouragement. #sarcasm I went on to sign a record deal, tour the Japan, Italy, Denmark, Germany, France, The Netherlands, Switzerland and the United States performing my original music. I also starred on Broadway in the Broadway show R.E.N.T. and did a little television competition show called Starsearch back in high school and NBC’s The Sing Off when I was an adult.

I was able to check off a lot of the “Boxes” and now I want to help you do the same. So you can imagine how the hairs on my neck stood up when my kid’s were told that they couldn’t be what they wanted to be. My eldest son Moses wants to play basketball professionally. So I went out and found out as much about it as possible. During that journey we again did the impossible.

Our little boy interviewed NBA Icons Chauncey Billups, Jason Richardson, Earl Boykins, and Kobe BRYANT! He got to talk with high level coaches and ranked college players. They shared with him the best next steps and so far their advice has been priceless!

Our second little boy wants to be a pro gamer. That research is happening right now and let me tell you it is even more fire than the first journey.

Our little girl wants to be a singer dancer. We got that one under control however, I will be doing some research about that and writing about that as well.

Last but not least I have a goal to reach 30k a month passively so that I can travel the world as they experience all of their amazing career ups and downs. As a result we will be talking about digital entrepreneurship and passive income in my books as well. There will be a lot for your to read. I will be doing most of the work for you. Well, the research part anyways.

Enter all of the research and the books that you are reading. (hopefully) As I went through my life I learned that the reason why most people fail isn’t because they weren’t gifted with some “natural talent”. The reason most people failed was because they don’t do the research and they don’t work on their mind. The internet has really changed the game and my hope is that I can be a little part of why you or your family lives the life of their dreams.

So click around and find the book that applies to you and read it. I will be updating them as often as possible. I look forward to helping you reach your “impossible” goals. See you on the other side!

About 9 Untold Secrets to Pain-free Breastfeeding

Struggling to breastfeed? Discover what the real problem is and how to overcome it with these 9 secrets…
From the moment you find out that you’re going to be a mom, your life changes forever.

The rollercoaster ride of pregnancy is only the beginning of your journey and, after months of anticipation, the last thing on your mind is the challenges you may face once your due date comes.

But, as with pregnancy, postnatal life isn’t always easy.

Maybe you’ve discovered the rarely discussed truth that breastfeeding isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be.

Many moms find themselves learning to navigate feedings and care the hard way, which can be frustrating and isolating in a world that makes it seem like you should have it all figured out.

So why don’t more women talk about the difficulties of breastfeeding?

Maybe you’re ashamed to admit that you’re struggling or have concerns — but you aren’t alone.

In fact, the CDC found that 60% of mothers don’t breastfeed as long as they intend to.

There’s a shocking lack of guidance when it comes to breastfeeding, and many women find themselves feeling lost and confused when they encounter difficulties.

This leads to guilt, shame, and a premature end to breastfeeding for many mothers.

But with the proper insight and advice, you can enjoy a successful, pain-free start to life as a new mom.

In 9 Untold Secrets to Pain-free Breastfeeding, here is just a fraction of what you will discover:

Answers to the most critical questions about breastfeeding, including how often to nurse and how to tell if your baby is hungry
An easy-to-understand breakdown of breast anatomy and lactation so you know the processes at work when you breastfeed
A step-by-step guide to encourage proper latching — and why it’s considered the core foundation of a successful breastfeeding experience
Hidden causes of breastfeeding pain — and solutions to help overcome it and relieve discomfort
The 5 simple foods that will safely and effectively increase your milk production
An easy-to-follow introduction to 5 breastfeeding positions — find the perfect fit for both you and your baby!
Proper techniques and strategies that will have you pumping like a pro, even if you’ve never done it before
How to overcome nipple confusion, breast refusal, and other common challenges faced by moms
And much more.

As a mom, it can feel like you’re expected to know precisely how to overcome the challenges that come with a new baby.

When issues arise, as they always do, it’s easy to put pressure on yourself or feel guilty, when in fact, this is a totally normal experience.

You know your body and your baby, and with a little extra guidance from a mom who has been in your shoes, you’ll be on your way to pain-free, no-stress breastfeeding in no time.

Neeraj Rai is a New Age spiritual author. He was born in a farmer family in a small village in Uttar Pradesh, India. Since the early stage of his life, questions such as what is the purpose of life? Why he has come into this world? What is the deeper meaning of his life? etc started bothering him but he could not find any answer. He tried to search it in various theories of Science and Philosophy but all went in vain. His inner struggle and search for the truth ultimately led him to the spiritual path and at the age of 32, he started his pursuit of spirituality. During his strive and struggle, one day he encountered a very strange experience. In the state of meditation, he lost his sense of "I". He experienced that "I" was just a deep-rooted thought which was disappeared. He was observing his own thoughts and feelings as a distant and independent observer and there was no reference point as an individual "I". That was a very liberating and insightful experience which transformed his life. He realized that self-identity is just an illusion which enslaves and keeps human beings imprisoned in a false sense of fear and limitations. He discovered that there is an identity-free superhero hidden within every human being who has no fear and knows no limits. He considers life as a precious gift of God and believes in exploring avenues of life, again and again, to live it to its full potential. Apart from his deep interests in spirituality and meditation, he also loves nature, adventure, photography and long drives.
