| This book teaches how God has designed us to live a maximized life. Unfortunately, many Christians do not know their true potential. It shows us how to acheive maximized living by overcoming mental hindrances with correct thinking. Quality of life is mostly a matter of choice. A maximizer plays with the hand he is dealt and chooses to win with that hand.Maximizers are those who possess the strength of character that enables them to keep believing, keep planning keep thinking and keep working to experience their full potential in the face of less-than-optimal conditions. Written in a practical, direct and encouraging manner, Dr. Hilliard walks the reader through the seven laws of living a maximized life. The laws of Perspective; Passion; Priority; Petition; Pattern; Profession and Progression. The reader will learn to live a life of inner peace, financial success, and personal happiness. |

| Josef Pieper This volume presents illuminating treatises of Josef Pieper on Thomistic anthropology and on the principles of right human behavior based on anthropology. With his customary lucidity, Pieper shows how all reality is positioned between the mind of God and the mind of man and is the basis for both man's unquenchable yearning and the measure of all man's knowledge. He then develops the Thomistic position that reality is also the basis for the good and therefore the norm of conscience and ethical action. As Pieper himself expresses in part of the thesis of the second treatise, "An insight into the nature of the good as rooted in objective being, of itself compels us to carry it out in a definite human attitude, and it makes certain attitudes impossible." Josef Pieper was schooled in the Greek classics and the writings of St. Thomas Aquinas. He also studied philosophy, law and sociology, and has been a professor at the University of Munster, Germany. His books have been widely praised by both the secular and religious press. Sewn Softcover Other books by Josef Pieper . |
