When my neighbor died suddenly it was a wake up call to stop procrastinating and start writing books
I procrastinated about writing this book for ages, until one day I got a wake up call that came out of the blue. The ambulance and fire truck arrived early on a Saturday morning at my neighbor’s house. Next came the police. When I didn’t see anybody being put on the stretcher, the situation was becoming clear. Then came a priest, followed by a mini van driven by two gentlemen with black suits. They sat in the driveway for hours. Seeing my relatively young, fit, active and perpetually smiling neighbor being carried out in a body bag was a reminder to all about how fragile life can be and the importance of time. Seeing his elderly mom walk out of the house that day really drove the concept of karma, or cause and effect, home.
My first book, High Steel and Great Whites: A Mystical Adventure Novel, was fun right off the bat. I actually tied many psychological and spiritual principles to an action packed mystical thriller -past lives, the dark force, exorcism and the greuling initiation of becoming one with the great white shark and lots more.
Holistic Tips for Everyday Living: A Guide for Being on Planet Earth is a complilation of excerps from articles I have written over the years. A bio.psycho.social.techno.spiritual model was used with due consideration for individual differences and multicultural diversity. Architecture, the arts, the humanities, music, neuroscience and much more are integrated with conventional and complementary healthcare.
Spiritual Medicine: A Guide for Clinicians, Educators, and Researchers is meant for students, organizational leaders, students and educated laypeople as well. It's companion book The 13th step: The Secret of becoming a coworker with the high power of God, includes a spiritual alignment plan and a contemplation journal
The Human Side of Quality and the Tao: The Greening of Leadership introduces the holistic quality system in new and innovative ways that can lead to maximixing profits and minimizing waste. Psychological principles are integrated with those from business, manufacturing and engineering leadership.
It's fun to write books and it is now my passion.
Best, Michael
