Do you realize you have more influence that you think you do? Have you ever said “I’m not good enough”? If so, you risk snuffing out the flame of your influence with an inaccurate self-assessment. The truth is, you are good enough and you have tremendous influence. God created you as his beloved masterpiece, and He fully equipped you to impact your world and bring Him glory. Why not re-ignite the fire of your influence.? You can, with Fire Starters. This is not a book about self-esteem or living your dream or being extreme. It has simple truths about how God has positioned you for His purpose, which is to influence your world. With heartwarming stories, humor and powerful scriptures, Maureen Zappala will show you how you can: * Embrace God’s power so you can enter your world with unshakable God-confidence instead of fickle self-confidence. * Learn how your influence isn’t limited even if your place in life is. * Find the “perk in your work” so you can enjoy the fruit of your labor. * Explore how your past pain has perfectly prepared you for God’s present purpose. * Break free from self-imposed constraints that limit your influence. With the Fire Starters of Uncontainment, Relationship, Home Run, Ordainment and Tapestry, you will experience God like you never have before, you will see more of Him than you ever have before, and you will give Him more glory than you ever have before.

</ul>
These are just some of the fascinating anecdotes you'll enjoy in this collection from the archives of Ohio State history. Sometimes uncanny but always delightful, these tales are certain to entertain all readers. Co-authors Jack Park and Maureen Zappala create a unique, if not uncanny partnership of an Ohio State grad and a Notre Dame grad. They met in 2015 through the National Speakers Association, and developed a friendship based on mutual love of both professional speaking and college football. This collaborative book was Jack's idea. With his vast Ohio State knowledge and Maureen's writing and internet skills, they embarked on a delightful two year journey of researching, interviewing, writing and rewriting to produce this fine compilation of some very cool Buckeye stories. The Ohio State Football narrative overflows with impressive statistics, scores and superstars. But peel back the curtain of game day events, and you find a treasury of inspiring, funny and even peculiar stories not found in the headlines. This book tells those stories, showcasing the human side of the Scarlet and Gray. Games are won and lost at the line of scrimmage, but it’s the people and their stories that are the golden threads that give the tapestry of Ohio State heritage its rich luster. Each chapter highlights a coaching era led by one of the preeminent architects, including John Wilce, Paul Brown, Woody Hayes, Jim Tressel and Urban Meyer. Read about players, coaches, fans, students, administrators, politicians, sportscasters and a myriad of others whose poignant perspectives, joyful celebrations and heartwarming experiences all spring from their connection to the Ohio State gridiron. Laugh over hilarious pranks and oddball coincidences. Feast your eyes on the photos that bring these stories to life. But most of all, be proud to be a Buckeye because you are part of a remarkable and robust football tradition.

Everyone sees you as successful and capable. You, however, explain away your accomplishments as due to luck, timing or good connections. Your inner voice declares: They all think I'm smarter than I really am! I feel like such a fraud! This version of chronic self-doubt that plagues high-achievers is called Impostor Syndrome. It causes people to discount their success and second-guess their abilities. Haunted by a fear of being unmasked as a fake, they remain beneath self-imposed limits, afraid of both success and failure. Some limits need to be pushed.
