Becoming You, An Owner's Manual for Creating Personal Happiness

Welcome to my website for my new book "BECOMING YOU", to be published by iuniverse publishing, available on amazon.com!

On this home page, I'll introduce you to some of the practical issues that often get in the way of living your dream life. It's easy to use no money or no time as excuses, but happiness is not bound by money or time. It is not defined by the lables that society uses to identify milestones of "getting ahead". When you think about a happy time in your life, you FEEL, happy. The power in being able to access that feeling, to pick yourself up and brush yourself off and get back on a positive foot is what this website, and my book, Becoming You is all about.

I've been there, and so have hundreds of people who have worked with me. My method can be used alone or with therapy. It is a step by step journey towards achieving a happy life. It worked for me and many other - and it can work for you too!

Welcome to the first step back to a happy life!

Sharing Happiness

It's funny how when we hear that someone is in trouble we drop everything and run to their side, but when we hear that someone is doing well we don't make it a point to carve out time to celebrate. Finding the people who are available to be joyous with you will help you move in your positive direction. Focus on what is going well, and then plan a celebration. See who comes and who is happy for you. I promise you they will be there when the chips are down too - but first - celebrate. Life is too short to spend it in the BMC club! (If you don't know what a BMC club is - get a copy of Becoming You ASAP! :)

June Song

What will it take to make you happy? Have you ever thought about what you could do to move yourself one step closer to that goal? Is it money, or a bigger house, or something that you can purchase? Is it being out of debt, healthier or in love with another person? Do you know one thing you could do today that would move you a little closer to feeling happy? For most of us, happiness is elusive. We don't realize that being happy depends on the choises we make and the actions we do, day in and day out. Let the words to your June song be - I'm walking to happiness, one step at a time. As for the tune... well that is up to you! Just keep singing! :) Welcome to JUNE!
