More About the Author

My past history (which isn't exactly pretty) is laid out in the first half of the book "The Ultimate Level". Today, my primary focus is on the "7 Principles of The Ultimate Level". I'm married to an awesome lady who is my true life partner and have two wonderful kids that I'm very proud of.

Today, I live with a general sense of peace and have a deep appreciation for truth, beauty, and goodness. Even though I feel that I have a relatively good understanding of "life", I must admit it's not always easy. Everybody has their share of curveballs thrown at them and I'm no different. However, my continual focus on the 7 principles of The Ultimate Level softens the blows when the problems of everyday life occur. I appreciate my life, the people who are in it, and I'm also very grateful for my past experiences which have made me who I am today.

My goal is to share my story and ideas with others that they may find the same sense of peace that I have found.

This review is from: 20 Good Reasons to Stay Sober (Even If You Don't Have a Drinking Problem) (Paperback)

This book is not a literary masterpiece by any stretch of the imagination although I don't think it was intended to be so. The author makes a very strong case against "the dangers of alcohol use" based upon his own personal experiences. If you have a teenager who may (or does) experiment with alcohol, this book is well worth the ten bucks to let them chew on the concepts. The book is focused towards the teen reader but adults will find value in it as well. For those who may have short attention spans, it is a quick and simple read. I give "20 Good Reasons" a big thumbs up!

I really enjoyed this book. It was an easy read, took me one day. The things he says in it make alot of sense and really did make me realize what I've known all along. I definitely recommend this one.
