King of the Online Jungle: The Early Years of Jeff Bezos
When McKenzie Tuttle walked down the aisle to say “I do” to her husband-to-be Jeff Bezos, she thought she was marrying into a secure future.

After forty-five years of hard work, the grizzled old rancher decided it was finally time to sell the ranch, retire, and really enjoy the rewards of his toil and sweat.

The Power of Recognition, Appreciation, and Celebration
Arden planted a 50-acre field of wheat that was now golden brown and very full for harvest. It was a sight to touch the heart of any farmer. Uncle Harry came to visit.

He said nothing about the field of wheat. Arden was crushed by his lack of enthusiasm.
