Hold Daddy's Hand

A Father's ageless book of wisdom for his daughter

Description:
"Hold Daddy's Hand" is written from the viewpoint of a father guiding his daughter using his own experience and the power of his love. The strengths of this book lie in the varied and eclectic life experiences of the father; having lived for a short time on the wrong side of the tracks; later delving into the spiritual meaning of his life; working creatively in music, writing, and art; and also starting and managing two successful businesses. It was written to be inspirational, emotional, instructional and entertaining. Style wise it is more reminiscent of Letters to My Son by Ken Nerbern than Chicken Soup for the Father and Daughter Soul.

Some tidbits of hand-holding

• Finding a higher purpose in your work and personal life
• Honoring the truth, and amazing effect it will have on your life
• Some time honored secrets to investing and managing your money
• Some deep wisdom from your great grandparents
• Taking 100% responsibility for everything in your life
• The secret to "not quitting"

This book is unique in that it has an overall theme of living consciously and questioning social conditioning. A great deal of time is spent unraveling our deeply held, "core" beliefs and motivations-especially in spiritual matters-without criticizing any popular beliefs or religions. Within the covers, you'll find a variety of subjects not normally touched on together: The difference between religion and spirituality, tips for being self employed, some unique twists on financial management, the pitfalls of subconscious programming and how it influences our actions, and a celebration of the differences between women and men. These subjects are "cushioned" by some traditional "Father to Daughter" dialogue on marriage, sex, peer pressure, sports, education, drugs and alcohol, taking responsibility, and finding a purpose in life. There is even a short section of poetry at the end inspired by the author's daughter.
