Own It! How to Take Responsibility for Your Life: Step Up to the Mirror

by James F. Smith

Overview

Author James Smith takes the hardball “get it fixed” approach to getting your life back on track using personal philosophies and true-life events, spiced with a little humor and a touch of spirituality to guide you to your better life. Your actions evolve into your consequences, so you should make them good ones! Accept the challenge and let these words be the catalyst for your new beginning!

This philosophy posits that no problem in life, no matter how trivial or severe, can be solved unless you own it. The mirror on the book cover represents taking a truthful look at your life and owning your decisions and their consequences so you can move forward. This might seem like goading you to play a game of Truth or Consequences with yourself — with everything being a consequence! Quite the opposite. This is the first step toward building a better, more successful life.

A stinger or a prod of sorts has been inserted into each chapter that will motivate you to create your action plan and write down your thoughts on the “Actions Page” at the end of each chapter.

Today is the day you start taking charge of your life. Be true to yourself, be responsible and make it a good life!

About the Author

James Smith, better known by his friends as “Smitty,” was born in 1940, is married, and has two children and one grandchild.

He is an Air Force Veteran with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering. He has spent most of his career in the Nuclear Engineering Field as a Program Manager and is still gainfully employed.

Mr. Smith has a refreshing point of view about life, specifically believing that mankind lays his own road, brick by brick, as he travels his path, and he fully subscribes to the premise that outside help (spiritual) is there for the taking at any time.

He sees absolutely no conflict between science and the existence of a Supreme Being. He is an avid believer in maintaining a healthy mind and body of which he says, “Without, life can become very trying.”

This is Mr. Smith’s first publication that mirrors much of what he has seen in life. He is of the opinion that most of mankind’s ills are a result of the way in which he chooses to utilize and apply his free will. It is this hypothesis on which he bases most of his writings.

He wishes you the absolute best in all that you aspire to accomplish and he implores you to keep the “Spirit” as the main ingredient in all that you strive to do.

GOOD LUCK, STAY SAFE AND HAVE A GOOD LIFE
