Everyone wants to live well and be happy, but few understand how to make it happen. In this short book, you will discover it is as simple as this: Change the way you think, and you will change your life.

The author, who has been writing and teaching in the self-help field since the 1980s, presents a series of 28 short lessons that will help you chart a course to the good life you seek and turn the inevitable obstacles and disappointments in daily living to your advantage. Drawn from an award-winning course taught to thousands of adult learners at Virtual University over ten years, the lessons reveal time-proven methods that you can use to reduce stress, build confidence, overcome depression, and break self-destructive habits. You'll learn how to stay sane and balanced when life around you erupts into chaos, and how to tap a limitless reservoir or inner strength and positive energy using deep relaxation, visualization, rhythm breathing, and meditation. You will also explore how to deal with seeds of karma planted long ago in your spiritual garden.

Life is short, and we must make the most of the precious time we have. When you look back on your life after all is said and done, what will matter most is: Did you live well? Were you happy? Have you left the world a better place than it was when you came into it? How you answer those questions will be shaped by your thoughts, words, and deeds in your remaining years.

Learn how to live well and be happy. Everything else in your life will fall into place.
