1. What really inspired you to write your
book, to force you from taking an idea or experience and conveying it into a
book?
It
was not my idea to write How Me
Found I: Mastering the Art of Pivoting Gracefully Through Life. I had never
had the ambition to write a book. This book began with me waking up one night
two years ago, compelled to go to my computer and start typing what turned out
to be fully complete grammatically correct sentences. This initial experience
then evolved from me being awakened up in the middle of the night to sit in
front of the computer with my eyes closed and simply type for three continuous
months. I was always astounded in the morning by what I had written the night
before. Eventually, I accepted that this manuscript had extreme value regarding
our very survival of the human species and our planet as a whole. It was
imperative to bring this knowledge into the world to help those stuck or
trapped in their present circumstances by offering an alternative path of
proactive conscious thought on how to create and live a better life. It is in
helping ourselves access our natural power can we save ourselves, our species,
our planet.
2. What is it about and whom do you believe
is your targeted reader?
My
targeted reader is someone who is stuck and has tried many venues; and yet
finds themselves back in the same space again and again. This book, which wrote
itself, is the key to breaking out of all the bindings that hold you static to
growth. How Me Found I is a
spiritually scientific self-help guide that helps the reader navigate their
real-time life in a more progressively smoother, easier, and expansive manner.
It is finding alignment with the greater forces of Nature and the Universe and
maintaining that communication and relationship in an experiential way that
creates and manages your everyday life in real-time.
3. What do you hope will be the
everlasting thoughts for readers who finish your book? What should remain
with them long after putting it down?
I
don't believe that my words are important. I believe that the concepts
contained in How Me Found I, if internalized and actualized, can change every
person's life that reads the book to evolve to a much better place than they
were before. How Me Found I offers the reader a complete life and lifestyle
change, not a temporary or quick fix 12 step technique of promised nirvana.
4. What advice or words of wisdom do you have
for fellow writers?
Follow
your heart. If your book is not from your heart, it will never capture its
audience.
5. What trends in the book world do you see
and where do you think the book publishing industry is heading?
I
think the present trends in the genre of self-help and human potential are more
focused on either checking out from everyday reality or present unsustainable
problem solution techniques - the quick fix approach. I feel that a vast
majority of people have given up hope that a self-help book can deliver what it
promises. They find the promise of relief from their day-to-day mundane
circumstances leaves them empty after the initial embracement. It is like going
to the gym to work out and lose weight in January after the holidays. You start
with great enthusiasm and start to see the positive effects, but eventually
over time, you stop working out and your body ends up reverting back to the way
it was before you started going to the gym and then after the next holidays,
you go back to the gym with new hopes and goals to change yourself once again.
The book,
"The Secret" is a perfect example of huge expectations with
unsustainable results. Most books do not break down the sciences of how life
really works at the granular foundational level of creation. Nor do they lay
out the steps on how to achieve a life of greatness in a manner that involves
the cooperation of both the Ego mind and the Heart working together in
counterbalance as partners in a dual system structure. The net result is that
without true balance and vigilant adherence to the true principles of Nature,
one cannot sustain themselves and their lifestyles without great effort.
The book
publishing industry is becoming more democratized and self-publishing will
continue to grow over traditional publishing.
6. What great challenges did you have in writing
your book?
Disbelief.
In the beginning of this writing project, whenever I woke up in the middle of
the night, sat at the computer and typed words that came into my head, I would
question the validity of what I internally heard, until I realized the
importance and value of the truth being spoken, then I would simply type as
dictated to. Eventually, my disbelief turned into extreme curiosity as I waited
for what would come next from my fingers on the keyboard.
7. If people can only buy one book this
month, why should it be yours?
If
one can conquer all aspects of fear and its many derivatives, one is free to
face any and all adversities in their life, because the power to create and
control their personal circumstances in life becomes accessible to them once
they are able to move beyond the limiting confines of fear. And with that
freedom, comes a peaceful joyful existence that many of us can only dream of.
My book, How Me Found I, is about transcending
your fears and converting them into the positive changes necessary to quantum
jump yourself into living your desired life in full cooperation and alignment
with the Universe and Mother Nature.
