Publisher's summary
Secular and spiritual success are not opposites. To have one, you need the other.
You can be wildly successful without losing your faith. In fact, your secular success will strengthen your faith if you allow it. Too often we believe that success in secular environments contradicts the core principles of faith, but the opposite is true: Your faith was designed to thrive in the secular world and to transform it as a result. You may never experience the true fulfillment you were created for until you pursue the secular ambitions in your heart.
New York Times best-selling author DeVon Franklin knows this to be true. In The Hollywood Commandments, the prominent Hollywood producer and spiritual success coach reveals 10 life-changing lessons picked up from his over-20-year career in the entertainment business. You won't learn these lessons in the church, yet they will help you achieve an amazing life and thriving career that glorifies God. The Hollywood Commandments will help you:
- Identify how to use what makes you unique to propel your career.
- Overcome fear and build the courage to pursue new opportunities waiting for you.
- Gain the confidence to make important life decisions with greater peace and clarity.
- Negotiate the life and career advancement you deserve.
No, you don't have to work in Hollywood for this audiobook to work for you; these "commandments" apply to every walk of life! If you are stuck, looking for the secrets to advance your career, or have a feeling there's more to life, this audiobook is for you.

Who would imagine being friends with Eve - the woman who’s been held responsible for the fall of humanity (and cramps) for thousands of years? Certainly not Sarah Jakes Roberts. That is, not until Sarah discovered she is more like Eve than she cares to admit. Everyone faces trials, and everyone will mess up. But failure should not be the focus. Your focus should not be on who you were but rather the pursuit of who you can become.

Relational Intelligence is your action plan for getting smart about your purpose partners.

When your purpose is on the line, the cost of relational unintelligence is too great to pay. In this audiobook, you will explore and learn how to activate the relational intelligence you need for the life of purpose you want.

There are many things that seem normal or average today that at one point in time seemed absolutely crazy. Smartphones, Wi-Fi, and even the electric light bulb were all groundbreaking, history-making inventions that started out as crazy ideas. Our see-it-to-believe-it generation tends to have a hard time exercising true faith - one that steps out, takes action, and sees mountain-moving results. Many of us would rather play it safe and stand on the sidelines, but it’s crazy faith that helps us see God move and reveals His promises.

We each have a destiny. Finding the courage to drive past the challenges, the pains, and even the shortcuts of life to the deeper purpose of living is to thrive in one's divine destiny. Most people have sensed destiny pulling them to just the right place or person. Whether it is the spouse you meet, the children you bear, or the promotion you receive, everyone has a purpose to pursue. Sometimes it is understanding our destiny that helps us accept what on the surface appears to be failure.

Story
What if the smartest people in the world understand something that the rest of us don't? (They do.) What if they know that in order to achieve success, they will sometimes have to do things that others may initially perceive as stupid? The fact of the matter is that the smartest people in the world don't run from stupid, they lean into it (in a smart way). In The Power of Starting Something Stupid, Richie Norton redefines stupid as we know it, demonstrating that life-changing ideas are often tragically mislabeled stupid.

Story
Do you ride the escalator or do you take the stairs? No matter how you define success, it always requires one thing: self-discipline. But as popular speaker and strategist Rory Vaden explains, we live in an "escalator world", one that's filled with shortcuts, quick fixes, and distractions that make it all too easy to slide into procrastination, compromise, and mediocrity. What seems like an easier path is really much harder in the end - and, most important, it won't take you where you want to go.

So on point
I am going through a trial in my life, this book came thru right on time, it’s has given me hope encouragement and faith to carry on from day to day. For me it is better support than talking with a friend, this is a great listen and will be a daily constant reminder of who, I am working to become, only wish this book had came out sooner. Going to use frequently as a reminder when I feel down or needing to make decisions, my son is 12 hopefully he can read or listen to this audio to help guide and stare his daily and future decisions making

A-MA-ZING! Will be reading over and over!
This book could not have come at a better time and I consider it a blueprint for success. I’m grateful for the intentionality behind every chapter and I will becoming back to it as a reference as I continue in my own journey. DeVon Franklin is a great teacher and it was awesome to have him reading the book because you can feel the heart and purpose behind every word. Each concept includes relevant examples and thorough explanations of what it means and looks like to walk these principles out in real life. Not only am I inspired, but I feel equipped with practical tools for applying my faith and bold belief in God to my career. So grateful! MUST read!

Believe in Yourself.
This book has moved me to want to be more of a better person, more responsible, sensible, prayerful and more so faithful that what your walk is God will show you by just listening. Just sit, and listen to what God is saying to you... Follow it! Thank You Mr. Franklin!
