Wake Up Don't Let the World Pass You by

Publisher Marketing: Born on June 26, 1945, in Preston, Lancashire, I took an interest in motivation and personal development over thirty years ago. When striving for success, I observed how some people became successful while others made no progress. Over the last few years, I have experienced many changes in my lifestyle, most of which I would have preferred to avoid. Yet these very experiences have enabled me to wrestle with life and observe many things from outside the normal light, a glimpse of life from a new window, enabling me to observe other people's lives and giving me a greater understanding of why, although most people dream, they don't achieve a life of fulfillment. I always have been fascinated by previous civilizations, nations, and races, with their different cultures, traditions, and beliefs. How they lived at a personal level. During my life, as I travelled through different countries and met the inhabitants, I noticed that many people drift through life on a day-to-day basis, living a way of life with no purpose other than to stay alive for as long as possible. This lack of ambition makes me feel that lives are being wasted, hence the incentive to do something about it; if this book achieves a change for the better for only one life, I feel I will have contributed something positive to society.
