FOREWORD

by Eldon Taylor, PhD, FAPA

You are about to embark on a journey that will enhance your life and immerse you in the essences of your quintessential being.

The Power to Navigate Life offers concepts that will connect deeply within your being and consequently raise a new awareness of your potential. You will come to understand, not just intellectually, but also at a deeper emotional level, that, there are no mistakes in lifeonly outcomes, and that you are in charge of those outcomes.

In The Power to Navigate Life, Tony discusses his own life lessons and challenges including his life threatening bout with cancer, distilling his insight through the lens of universal rules. Using these rules, he teaches us how to welcome each new challenge as an opportunity, just as we might welcome news of something like a pay raise. In his words, Saying YES means embracing the essence of the experience that is before us.

There is warmth in Tonys words, that seems to reach in and somehow touch our souls and although we already know deep down everything he teaches, we have failed to remember them. I particularly like the way Tony removes any judgment and notion of failure from his approach. One of his lessons had great appeal to me, because it described some of my own personal experiences. Again in his words, Sometimes in life the wrong turn can and will deliver us to the right place in time.

In the end, this is a journey that will reveal self-sabotaging and self-destructive patterns, while emphasizing the liberation that comes from not just realizing you have the power to create your own reality, but from learning how to do so from this point on.

A good self-help book should produce an experience, deliver the motivation necessary for you to follow through, and leave you with a new level of confidence with which to continue your journey. The Power to Navigate Life does precisely this. I highly recommend the book and I know that you will appreciate and prosper as a result of your experience with it.

Enjoy your read

Jerome Fahrer

Most of us know what we have to do to be healthy but battle to overcome the negative chatter inside our heads that sabotages our efforts. Despite much effort the chatter inevitably wins the day and we end up back where we started. There is no easy path to fitness and good health; it requires effort and discipline to get there and effort and discipline to stay fit and healthy. There are many books that set out the physical things that you have to do to achieve fitness and good health but there is a dearth of information about the hard part the battle with the negative chatter that sabotages the best efforts. As my trainer Tony Fahkry gave me the mental tools necessary to overcome all the negative chatter that sabotaged my efforts to improve my health. In this book Tony has revealed his secrets about the mental tools that can set you on your path to good health.

INTRODUCTION

The Power to Navigate Life

You Never Know What Life Had Planned For You

Over a decade ago, The Power to Navigate Life began as my own personal journey. In fact, I recall that precise moment my life began to change. It was when I heard the rheumatologist utter the word CANCER and instantaneously my equilibrium was shattered. Life as I knew it would never be the same.

Immediately, the word death came to mind at the mention of cancer. Death and disease had become as familiar friends over the years (my father died from complications of type II diabetes), so I knew all too well their correlation.
