This book was inspired out of the endeavors of CHOICES 7 Steps, a seven weeks moral reasoning conflict resolution therapeutic program. The many years of facilitating CHOICES 7 Steps in schools and private organizations, afforded the opportunity of receiving positive feedback on the impact of the program. Results were; positive change of thoughts, attitudes and behavior that led to different perspective on life. The overwhelming request for a home base program inspired this home based self-help handbook to enhance self-awareness.

"This book isn’t about empty words and mantras, and I won’t ask you to stare in the mirror screaming affirmations (though that would probably help). This book, and the truths in it, is about way more than just believing. This book talks about knowing through understanding. This book is not about ignoring the negative voices that exist outside and within. It is about staring them in the eye and saying out loud, “I disagree!” Your struggles are real. If you thought reading this book will make things easier, you’ve got the wrong book. I’m not here to sell you the idea that anything can be easy, but I am here to remind you that you’re worth the difficulties that come with improving your life."--
