"I have had the distinct pleasure of working with Dr. Prakash and know firsthand of his passion and unique qualities in working with people. This book is a wonderful expression of his gift in understanding 'Transformative Changes' that unfold in each of our lives. I'm certain that when you follow the practices in his book you too will experience a deeper awakening and joy in the unfolding of life as it happens."

"No one sets out to create an unsuccessful life. That goes without saying. But how to create a successful life is the journey of a lifetime. It starts with practice, practicing right relationship with the mind, practicing right relationship with the emotions; practicing right relationships with the present moment; practicing right relationship with inner and outer based relationships. So as you can see, a successful life is the natural by-product of a wise and transformative, well-executed practice. Dr. Prakash has written the definitive bible on transformational change. His wisdom offers us more than just the fine art of 'practice makes perfect.' He offers the transcendent gift of how to practice to realize you are perfect. Warning: This book contains the seeds of a transformational personal revolution. Read at the risk of creating a wildly successful life."
-Vaishali, author of You Are What You Love and Wisdom Rising, syndicated radio show host, and life management expert
"Om Prakash is a very wise soul. He once taught a group of coaches at Mentor Coach to meditate. I walked away with the ability to meditate and an overwhelming sense of his passion and energy for life and giving. His keen intelligence andwarmth of character draw people to him. Om has had many successes in his life and the people he has touched are better for their contact with him."
-Anne Durand, MCC
"The desire to become, to transform, has taken on new meaning in these tumultuous times. People are hearing the call to a more mindful life, a life of authentic and right choice. Dr. Prakash brings a rich background and strong voice to those who aspire for balance and the deeper meaning. Change is inevitable; how you move in change is not. Dr, Prakesh leads you on a path of centered practices designed enrich your personal journey."
-Deanna Stull, General Manager, CoachVille and the Center for Coaching Mastery
This book evolved out of Dr. Prakash's extensive experience. Knowledge and understanding of human behavior, which he gained by helping his coaching clients and his patients created transformative changes in their lives, changes that helped them attain their maximum potential for success. As a teenager, Dr. Prakash served as a community organizer in the freedom movement in India. The transformative moment he experienced then turned into a passion for service to other and continues to inspire him to this day. In order to pursue his mission of serving others, he gave up his political aspirations and earned his masters degree in psychology from the National Muslim University in India. Later, he came to the United States and earned another masters degree, this one in education and child development from the University of Minnesota. Subsequently he received a doctoral degree in clinical psychology from the University of Montana. Dr. Prakash has been in private practice of clinical psychology for the last thirty-five years. About ten years ago, after receiving extensive training in mentor coaching, he added life-coaching services to his practice. At this time, Dr. Prakash, at age eighty-five, is in excellent health, maintains his psychology and coaching practices., and is actively involved with helping others, the ongoing mission of his life. Currently Dr. Prakash lives with his wife in Irving, Texas, a suburb of Dallas. They have one son, who lives with his wife and their two children in Houston.
