An authentic life, realized to its fullest potential, is like a sailing voyage: you choose a destination, chart a course, weigh anchor and set sail on the seas of success.

Voyage to Destiny: Now Available

February 27th, 2006, Voyage to Destiny:Sailing to Success is available in print.
That night, I met with Dr. Deepak Chopra, gave him a signed copy of the book (one of the first four) and told him about my project. He said he "would" read the book and "may" give me an endorsement. He then wrote out an email through which I could contact him at the Chopra Center.
Two things struck me from that night. First, when I saw him enter the room, it was as if I knew him. Not just a physical recognition (which isn't surprising), but also a spiritual recognition. He was dressed in black with stylish, thick, black-rimmed glassed and walked liked a prince. My soul recognized him, and, in the split second when our eyes met, I'm convinced his soul recognized mine.
Secondly, was the way he held his pen and wrote an email on a piece of paper. "That hand," I thought to myself. "That hand has written millions of words, thousands of pages and eleven best sellers." There was something beautiful, poignant and almost lonely about that hand scribbling across the side of a brochure for the Alliance for a New Humanity. Briefly, I wanted that hand to somehow survive the ravages of time, but of course it will not. His spirit of his words will live on though, through the fabric of the universe.

I like the way Maya Angelou quotes Omar Khayyam, contemplating her mortality after being cut by her step mother in a fight. "I thought we were en route to an emergency hospital and so, with serenity, I made plans for my death and will. As I faded into time's dateless night, I would say to the doctor, "The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ, moves on," and my soul would escape gracefully."

Limited time special offer: Until Voyage to Destiny:Sailing to Success is distributed through Amazon and a link on my website, you can obtain a signed copy for $20 via email
