Creating The Life Your Desire will teach you the simple yet powerful techniques of how you can create the life you've longed for by taking control of your thoughts, patterns and habits at the inner subconscious level. By applying these formulas, you will soon find yourself living the life you've always dreamed of, achieving your goals with relative ease and breaking bad habits and negative thought patterns. The techniques you will learn in this book can guide you to higher level of both personal and professional satisfaction. I have used and studied the majority of healing arts; theology, meditation, yoga, hypnosis, NLP and read almost every self-help author from Tony Robbins, Chopra, Carnegie, Dyer and The Secret. The one thing they all have in common is tapping into the power of the subconscious mind. I have found that using a combination of these techniques while under hypnosis can fast track your results. My own personal journey led me to discover these techniques when I was a teenager and I have been using them ever since creating a life of my dreams and I continue to practice their techniques on a daily basis because they work.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Author, Don Barnhart was born and raised in the San Fernando Valley where this novel takes place, so he knows the subject well. During the late 1950's, smack dab in the golden age of Rock 'n Roll, and way before the current flux of modern day gangs, there were an abundance of car clubs. No club was more respected and feared than a Southern California group known as the Jacks, in which, for a short period of time, Mr. Barnhart was a member. This, his third novel, is a compelling story of the Jacks and their Jills, a funny, balls-out, coming of age yarn punctuated by hot rods and the music that underscored that special time. The narrative follows Ron, Delores and Taylor through their personal struggles of growing up, their sexual exploration and the tragic death of a friend, while attempting to understand the true meaning of their own separate lives. Their tumultuous relationships are woven in and around the escapades of the notorious club, as the Jacks gamely hold on to their reputation and remain top dog in the community of souped-up cars, wild parties and domineering strength. It's a story that feeds the nostalgia in all of us and lets the reader rediscover the innocence's of how it was in those days that led up to these current chaotic times.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. This rough and tumble story concerns the quest for love in a four generational family hell bent on securing that response. It's a humorous take on a serious subject centered around the unique relationship of the Hart family, a pack of loners that would definitely define the word. When a ninetieth birthday celebration and an art respective of the Patriarch's work collide on the same weekend, Jonathan Hart's whole family sets about to return to the spacious ranch and attend his event with enough personal agendas to fill the heated pool. Willy Hart, the angry prodigal son (and one time only best-selling author), his son, Paul Hart, the randy B-movie director, and his son, Sonny Hart, the youngest, (desperate to find out who he really is), finally converge to settle some love scores, and it's not about tennis. Toss in a few lady spitfires and the road to redemption is just a wild trip around the emotional cul-de-sac, with forgiving and being forgiven the top priorities. This four generational romp wraps its tight fist around the throat of familial intimacy and laughs at its own self to finally let it go. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. I vainly tried to 'sweet talk' my entire radio career (10 years, almost to the day) unaware I was simply gathering material for this novel like a farmer thrashing acres of raw wheat, or likened to a Veterinarian picking fleas out of a stray mutt. Before embarking on a forty-four year run as a successful television Director, I was a radio gypsy, sans headscarf and gaudy trinkets, of course, blissfully roaming the land from station to station on a nebulous journey to eventually wallow in the big time. Sadly, I never did. My first break as a deejay materialized at a small station in Santa Rosa, California; the call letters?, KJAX. They christened me, Jack Be Nimble. What a shitty way to start a career, I thought, I had lost my precious identity. Of course, everyone there was a 'Jack' of some sorts. Embarrassing, it was. I lasted maybe six months, tops. This story follows fictitious Bookie Fox and his valiant attempt for his chance at big city radio. Unfortunately he was also an unwitting carrier of the Golden Bitch of Success; the silent, deadly disease firmly embedded into his addled ego. Unbeknownst to our hero, her vicious claws grasped at every opportunity to make him into a bona fide fool. Being chased by a killer-husband, stalked by a sex-crazed woman, throw in a bit of jail-time, the saving of a town in the interim, a friendship with a hundred-year-old, rain-making Indian, a monsoon of Noahesque proportions, an on again off again love affair with an up-front-in-your-face-balls-out, gorgeous woman; indeed, are these but a few of the key elements that might project oneself into a fool? Most likely, they are. Damn straight, Golden Bitch, well done. The dream of 'spinning the heavy hits' and yakking silly over the airwaves persisted until our Bookie finally had his desired taste. Soon after, though, he quickly discovered what was truly important in his life and the welcomed pleasures in his redemption that were swift to follow. A good woman can sometimes do that. So can a kick in the ass of one's floundering ego, of course, coupled with the disposal of the 'Bitch'. The Sweet Talkers is an exaggerated account of the many wonderful and kinetic people I intimately knew, some I met and others I had heard about, written in a humorous, adult vein. However, not all participants are painted in a good light. Luckily, and in the nick of time (lawyers notwithstanding) I found the fervent use of cynical, satirical and sardonic humor a neat way to cover the vivid extremes. Hopefully, it's a laff-out-loud funny read. If not, well, I make no apologies. I tried. As a writer, I can make stuff up, which I most certainly did. Some close observation might discover a misleading of facts and important places. This novel is not meant to be necessarily accurate, it was written to be funny. You might even consider sending missives to correct my obvious mistakes. Please save your energy. I loathe the hideous task of laborious research and will continue to write my stories out of a fertile imagination so long as I'm allowed to do so. I trust my errors will be insignificant enough as to not distract any enjoyment for the reader. Or, better yet, keep me on the outs from any future meeting with the Boss. I stand straight with no excuses. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. A sudden crack of thunder, the kind that shatters moral resolve, rumbles across the barren Mojave mimicking the robust peal of a disgruntled burrito. Bony Jo Sapp, nosing somewhere in his early forties, stands with a cowboy boot firmly planted on the rusted bumper of his faded powder-blue '85 pickup tinkering with a polished .45. Growing weary and impatient and downright pissed, Sapp cools his heels for an undercover drug buy that he knows, down deep in his own rusted gut is about to go terribly wrong. His experience in wrongness is vast and he still can't dial it right. His estranged son comes to mind. So does his own sullied youth. ?This is a guy who cha-cha'd with the devil but forgot how to lead. . CROOKED ROAD, STRAIGHT is a raw, gritty, high concept crime thriller with our protagonist the focal point of a future series scoured deep from within the underbelly of Las Vegas, deep enough to discover fossils, even if they turn out to be recent 'hits'. But Detective Sapp has other issues besides the sweet purity of whacking bad guys off the leader board with more than just a nine iron, being the hacker that he is. He fathered a beautiful son. And that's the whole trouble right there; his inherit inability to express love and be the father he needs to be while humanity is seriously falling apart all around him.
