'OF COURSE I AM A VICTIM OF SOMETHING 'I remember being asked to talk to an 80 year old man about his life. The talk took place in a faraway nursing home. For some reason, which I was to later find out, he wanted to get a few things off his chest. So we sat down and I let him talk. What was supposed to be a 60 minute chat ended up going over 2 days and more people engaged in the conversation - more by fluke then plan. From that chat I put the words of wisdom to good use. Part one is here in 'The 21 ways to die a slow death' and part two you will find in 'If I had my time again - the biggest regrets of an 80 year old man'. The reason he wanted to talk was because he was dying and we discussed many things and amongst them was how people 'die' before their time. He would often say, People 'don t really get a chance to live because they are preoccupied with dismantling their life in real time'; 'we all feel we are a victim of something.' And what he said more than emphasised my thoughts at the time: We are so busy finding what s wrong with our life we forget to live it. In fact, 'EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US IS DYING RIGHT NOW, RIGHT THIS SECOND.'So why is it that we stuff up and in due course slowly kill ourselves when all we truly seek is contentment? This book is simply designed to take care of the killers in your life that stop all the good stuff like happiness, contentment and peace of mind from happening.But more importantly, here are the ways you can STOP the slow death and live a happy and rewarding life while you can. Of course, there will be challenges but soon enough situations which once seemed complicated and demanding will now seem surprisingly simple and easy to navigate.And they're in your hands - right now.So, let this be your guide toward being the person you deserve to be Be sure to give attention to one of the ways in this book '21 ways to DIE a slow DEATH' too, particularly Section '5' - Act like a Victim: 'In my 80 years I have met with many who have felt disappointed or dismayed that life treats them unfairly. In jobs, friendship, sport, family, the constant theme of being lucky and /or unlucky pervades their thinking. I noted that we are all dealt different hands from life s deck of cards. Not everyone will have 4 aces in their hand at any given point but they will get an ace at some stage. It just depends on what they do with this ace.' said the old man.This book will reveal the 4 aces and the simple yet powerful techniques taught in this section are incredibly helpful in supercharging your life Problems and people go hand in hand and whilst problems are versions of questions-simple to hard - it is reasonable to assume that most people choose to see them as solvable, unexplainable, unsolvable or demonstrative. It s all in the perception or distortion - Section 12 However, realising this in real time can be a challenge.When they can't be dealt with directly, emotions get displaced somewhere else. We dump them onto minor issues that (unconsciously) remind us of the deeper trouble. As a result, these minor issues are felt to be bigger than they really are; physically and mentally our life changes around us. There are ways to stop this and this book will show you how. If you don t know 'The 21 ways to die a slow death' then all the happiness in the world will pass you by and the 'killing' continues each and every day.Challenging? Confronting? Awakening? It has to be for you to enjoy the life you DESERVE to live.I hope you enjoy the read and become a better person from it.- Michael Father Senior
