Conversational, witty, and surprisingly warm, The Ideal gives readers specific steps on *how* to understand and accept the tremendous power of our existing self. Deconstructing the word "Ideal" into smaller component words and their respective meanings (I, Id, Idea, Deal, Ideal), author John Clark III explains how each word contributes to our self-knowledge. In a simple, self-questioning book, he asks readers to examine themselves, their strengths, and their priorities to solve their problems, transform their situations, accomplish their goals, and lead happy, fulfilling lives. Whether you are seeking additional money, better relationships, improved health, or any other tangible asset, The Ideal is literally a real-life guide to your next level of achievement. The Ideal provides the knowledge and the navigation tools so that you can say with William Henley in Invictus, "I am the master of my fate, the captain of my soul." Publisher s note: This is the monochrome edition, which is in black and white. A full-color edition is also available (ISBN 978-0-9820307-3-8).

If you think true personal change is easier said than done, you must read God's Heartbeat! The author, a career Naval Officer with an MBA from the Navy Postgraduate School, in Monterey, California, draws upon real-life experiences in war-torn Iraq, as well as leadership skills gained from a twenty-year career working and living aboard ships, submarines, and air stations. Focused on achieving true personal change, God's Heartbeat provides a new academic model of life leadership, and demonstrates how your own view of the world can sometimes prevent you from seeing the world as it really is.

Who does your heart beat for? God's Heartbeat confirms that life here on earth is actually quite simple... if you really and truly believe in God. Ultimately based on the powerful Book of Proverbs, God's Heartbeat is Your Instruction Book for Life. If you follow the simple instructions in God's Heartbeat, you will always be on the right path. You will always choose the correct course. And you will never wonder, wander, or worry. Youwon't wonder if your path is leading you astray. You won't wander into the realm of the unprotected. And you will never worry about the complexities of life. John H. Clark's journey of discovery led him to a profound Truth about our lives here on earth and God's spiritual instructions for us all. If you think true personal change is easier said than done, you must read God's Heartbeat!
