Synopsis

Your Enemy, Your Friend is an introduction to conscious living through active participation.

The two books, FOREVER & ALWAYS, describe and explain a PRACTICAL approach to acquiring Personal Serenity and Relationship Fulfilment through a Greater Awareness and change in Perspective.

Quintessentially this is a 'way of life' education based on insights designed to reveal unexpected sources of learned sabotage in our personal 'way of being' philosophy and nurtured subterfuge in our social and relationship psychologies that together compel existential distress. They do this by disrupting our capacity for developing emotionally healthy relationships with ourselves (first and foremost) and consequently with the external world - but especially with partners in traditional, conventional life-partner relationships.

FOREVER

• Describes HOW and WHY we gradually, unconsciously, and systematically descend into relationship disenchantment through a state of existential chaos.
• Explains the forces that hold us captive to ‘way of life’ principles and practices that (through our unwitting subscription to them along with a persistent belief (delusion) to the contrary) separate us from ourselves and compromise our relationship possibilities.
• Empowers us (through Emotional Sophistication) to recalibrate our ‘way-of-life’ trajectory so that we can achieve desired personal and relationship quality aspirations.

ALWAYS

• Explains HOW we become frustrated by perpetual, cumulative existential distress and WHY we desperately search for answers and remedies in places where they can never be found, with disappointment our only reward.
• Enables us to identify behavioural constraints (that we do not easily distinguish as such) which prevent us from acquiring more sophisticated possibilities for living.
• Empowers us to recalibrate our ‘way-of-life’ trajectory so that we can discover real Emotional Freedom and acquire Personal Serenity.

The series is essentially a collection of confrontations that empower us to identify, tackle and overcome the barriers preventing us from the life that we were promised and imagined possible for ourselves - but which failed to materialise because of conventional establishment indoctrination.

From the Back Cover

"There are only two kinds of people that can tell you the truth about yourself. An enemy who has lost his temper and a friend who loves you dearly." - Antisthenes, 445-365 BC.

Your Enemy, Your Friend, is a 'way of life' education that will change everything you used to believe was right, real and true about personal happiness and relationship fulfillment.

The series consists of two books, titled Forever & Always, that intelligently challenge everyday notions of human 'being'. They reveal 'how' and 'why' the conventional mindset unconsciously prevents us from acquiring these precious commodities in any substantial way, but more importantly, they describe 'who' we must become, to reacquire them in abundance.

Always, is an unashamedly antagonistic prequel to Forever, that permanently shatters the preconceptions and behavioural constraints preventing us from solving our 'speed of life' equation. Anything insidious that lingers after being confronted by the sentiments in Forever, is promptly assassinated by Always, provided you are prepared to be bold.

This book, Forever, focuses on partner relationships, using thought-provoking insights that compel your attention to the undesirable dynamic that partners fall into, despite aiming for something different. Forever describes 'how' we gradually descend into relationship disenchantment and explains 'why' we become confused and trapped by our choices, until eventually, we either implode, explode or die compromising and pretending.

Through some confronting scenarios, Forever exposes the inadequacies in our curriculum for living - by identifying common emotional intelligence deficits and revealing unexpected sources of inner conflict in our belief and value systems that distract us from the real issues. So we wind up searching for remedies in places where they cannot possibly exist, while we become progressively unfulfilled in the process.

Forever, disrupts that process, by enabling us to identify hidden insecurities, overcome lingering fears and outgrow insidious preconception fictions - that prevent us from acquiring healthy life and relationship goals - especially in the domains of love, lust and romance.

But what distinguishes this book uniquely, is its raw practicality. When properly understood, even partners in unworkable relationships are empowered to change directions without anger, selfishness, hate or destruction.

Together, Forever & Always, articulate the emotional intelligence shift needed to acquire the adventure that we were promised by the community that we trusted with our 'way of life' education.

Real personal happiness and genuine relationship madness are available to everyone. But to overcome the learned resistance to this 'way of life' possibility...

"We must Unlearn who we think we are, so that we can Relearn who we can become".
