Self Help

This book is not a diet book; it is a way to change your relationship with food.

You’ve been there before, maybe many times. And you’re tired of failing.

Let failure be a word you eliminate from your vocabulary. It's time to SUCCEED. Learn how to make food work for you.  

“Your diet is a bank account. Good food choices are good investments.” 

~ Bethenny Frankel 

Like many of you I have struggled with weight my entire life. I have been a perpetual dieter…forever. In that time I have lost hundreds of pounds. Most of you understand what I am talking about. Gain a few lose a few on and off the never ending roller coaster of weight loss. In short, I was a professional dieter. It took me many tears of frustration and disappointment to learn that losing weight IS NOT HARD. Yes you just read that right, I said WEIGHT LOSS IS NOT HARD.  

The biggest problem we perpetual dieters have is that we get discouraged and give up. Usually after anywhere from two weeks to two months.  

The world is in a perpetual search for quick weight loss programs. But, be realistic. How can there be any such thing—outside of chopping the fat from your body? How could you expect the weight to come off overnight? Was it gained with a snap of the fingers? Or the twitch of a nose? The goal should be consistent weight reduction over a period of time. You must be prepared to develop a whole new outlook on food and what it does to your body. But it can be done, and it can be done in an enjoyable way that makes the journey easier.  

Let’s face it; life is crazy. The kids won’t get out of bed, the  coffeemaker drips all over the counter, traffic is a beast, the boss,  well… How do some people, no matter what storms are raging around them,  sail through it all without a flicker of anxiety or burst of temper,  while others, by nine a.m. are throwing up their hands in dismay,  declaring, “I just can’t take it any more.”

So, why is one person more able to tolerate stress than another?

This  multi-published author has spent several years studying how the mind  works, why some people deal with life’s events differently than others,  and consequently, why they react more strongly to exactly the same  stimuli as someone else. Is it just because all people are different  from each other, or is something else at play?

In this book you will learn:

• How to refocus the mind to achieve a more powerful daily outlook

• What part ego plays in your routine

• How to calm the Fear Monster

• How to keep the past where it belongs

• The importance of forgiveness

Once you take these five easy steps, you’ll be wondering why you waited so long.

Do you feel powerless to deal with the things life throws at you? By nine a.m. are pulling out handfuls of hair declaring, “I just can’t do this any more?” It’s even more frustrating to see friends, family, or co-workers sailing through life’s situations with barely a ruffle to their demeanor. When you ask, “How do you do it?” do they just raise their brows and act as though you asked how to make rocket fuel?

What makes each person deal in different ways? We are, after all, made of the exact same elements—blood, bone, molecules, etc.

Competition  in the fiction market has shot to all-time highs. Gone are the days  where editors accept manuscripts scribbled on restaurant napkins or ones  loaded with typos and spelling mistakes. Whether you're striving toward  submitting to agents, or self-publishing, your manuscript needs to be  in the best possible shape. 

Many people in my over-55 community are, to quote one of my neighbors, “Waiting to go.” 

Actually, they called Florida “God’s waiting room.” What! Is that what really happens? I asked around and found out it was. 

After some thought, I realized I had been too. 

This book is about how my life changed when I learned to “live life consciously.” Because, at the age of sixty-two, I learned I didn’t need to lie down and wait for the end to come. It was my choice to go forward…or not. 

So, I went forward…and joined a dating site.

And met someone who changed everything. 

Realize please, this isn’t a dating book. It’s how, through interactions with Rick, spiritual books, and journeys to places like Cassadaga, Florida, I learned about self-healing, and that I could literally change my thoughts, to be a more positive and empowering person. 

That with those changes, life took an entirely new path. How easily things come to you when you learn to let go.
