This is not a cookbook! You Can Do This! Cooking Up a Happier You for You and Yours is instead a self-help guide to happiness. "This book is a sort of Self-Confidence 101," says author Jim Te Selle. When his life was at its lowest, he came up with a plan to get it back on track. In his own words: "This is a product of what I had to learn in order to get my life squared away. I woke up one morning in a treatment center; my wife had left me; I was almost broke; and I was raising twin boys by myself. I couldn't believe it. I had done all the things an American dad is supposed to do: college, marriage, job, mortgage, kids. And yet I was totally unhappy and not a little bit screwed up. What happened? I had no clue." If your life isn't going quite the way you'd like it, if your dream seems out of reach, don't worry. "I had to learn to believe in myself. This book offers one way to do that." You Can Do This! About the Author: Jim Te Selle of Cedarburg, Wisconsin, claims he is 12 years old. "My wife or mother might take issue with that and tell you I'm actually 71, but what do they know? Twelve was such a magical age for me that I decided to stay there until I found a better one. Age is very important: As we think, so are we. Think old, you're old. Think young, you're young. Think happy, you're happy. Think you can do something, you can do anything." Publisher's Web site: http://www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/YouCanDoThis-CookingUpAHappierYouForYouAndYours.html
