What's Important Now: Shedding the Past So You Can Live in the Present

What's Important Now (W.I.N.) is a book that teaches readers how to be real by focusing on their present moment thoughts, feelings and actions. It is for readers who want to stop faking it and start making it! Readers are typically in the self-discovery stage of life, realizing they've been working and living a life designed to gain the approval of others. The time has come to ask, what's important now for me and for my life, even if others may disapprove.

Offering six strategies called 'doorways', What's Important Now is practical, frank, intimate and inspiring. The author walks his own talk, having navigated through highly successful career changes, a broken marriage, a two & a half year divorce battle, and ultimately, facing the ultimate battle - overcoming his own emotional demons and destructive self-talk.

What's Important Now opens up for readers the upside down world of living in the present, where the only time that is Real is now. Readers learn practical techniques to let the unchangable past go, and accept their lack of control over the future. Instead, they learn that to master themselves and their own present moment choices to create a life of joy and peace, no matter what trial comes along.
