ABOUT THE BOOK:
There are a number of books that focus on dealing with past issues. The common themes seem to be forgiveness and acceptance. While these messages are a necessary part of the process, they aren’t very practical. Forgiving someone is cathartic and often makes the forgiver feel better about themselves, but they can’t effectively use it to overcome the underlying issues.
Â
There is also a sense of an afflicter and a victim. Readers should not have to feel like victims because they’ve been hurt in the past. They should be able to see hurt as normal, but something that is given far too much power. Healing is possible and moving on is possible.
This book will empower the reader right from the beginning. You will see what you have been avoiding for most of your life and that by picking up this book, you have chosen to be the one in power and control. By applying the exercises in the book, you will finally take control of your life’s direction.
Â
Conspicuously missing from other books are tangible skills one can walk away with. This book will have actual exercises you can use to start improving your life immediately. There will be short-term and long-term goals that provide present as well as future benefits.
