"I Told My Mind To Shut The F*ck Up"
Perhaps your mind supplies you with haunting thoughts. Anxious, maddening, or distracting thoughts. Perhaps it is telling you that something can't be done... Or maybe what you really need is to tell your mind to shut the f*ck up.
This is my story, and I am telling it so others can learn something useful. I had a big problem: My wife and son were simultaneously diagnosed with multiple tumors. The diagnosis sent me into a state of panic. Until then, my life had equipped me with the mental tools to think clearly, make good decisions, and help my family survive. I just had to quiet my mind so I could use them.
I had come a long way--from a troubled youth to a successful entrepreneur and teacher. Along the way, I acquired a New Age perspective for defeating the demons of my mind and navigating my life and family towards a positive outcome. Thanks to it, I was able to empower myself to achieve financial independence, support my wife through two decades of serious surgical procedures, and help my son fight to survive one of the most complicated neurological surgeries in medical history.
You can learn how to overcome great obstacles in order to get what you want--no matter what your mind says.
Blackout
94 Days of Darkness
Blackout is the story of twelve-year-old Nick, a bullied middle-schooler, who is about to endure a planetary event that casts the Earth in total darkness for ninety-four days.
Nick, like all his classmates, knows that the event will mean a kind of dark ice age, a “blackout” that threatens everything and everyone. As Nick's family prepares for self-sufficiency, he fears what will happen during the time stuck inside with his parents on the verge of divorce.
As the ninety-four days start to seem like an eternity, the differences between and within families begin to erode as humankind relearns lessons of mutual dependency—and kindness.

Are you tired of living with the same problems and issues?
Do you feel your life will never change like you wish it would?
Have you settled for a life that is less than you imagined?

Using his inspiring story as a metaphor for the trials and tribulations we all endure, he offers an alternate perspective for powerful living.
