If you ever wonder about how to think like an expert, the difference between your inner critic and the actor within, your ability to be heard, the value of being a musician, how to protect yourself from liars or how to overcome fears, you will find answers in this book.Through each chapter there is a magic wand taking you into an area of life that you may have experienced yourself or may soon encounter. There is synthesis between the known and unknown, the seen and unseen, the mental and the physical, the desires of the heart and the aspirations of the spirit; and the overall theme of we are all just trying to make it from one day to the next with joy, peace, and happiness.Joseph gives his own insights throughout the pages of what he believes are the backbone of our own life experiences - both the great and the not so great. He leaves it up to the reader to discern what is true for them. You will find yourself wanting to explore more of each of his analysis of life's nuggets, many of which we create ourselves through questions, desires for specific outcomes and the need to be heard.
