Most of us associate our most memorable, life-changing, traumatic or triumphant life experiences to the years in which they occurred. Many of us also associate certain years with the songs that we love or that spoke to our experiences like a life-score. Memory experts have stated that we remember numbers and years more easily when distinct events occur in them. This is a proven fact, based on numerous studies. Although we often associate the overall quality of a year with the good experiences, we also unfairly label some years as "bad" because of a few unfortunate events. Additionally, many of us forsake our New Year's resolution when our year takes a few unexpected turns. Why does this happen? Is it our circumstances justifying how we perceive our year, or is it our perspective failing to make our circumstances irrelevant? In 2018, after experiencing the deaths of two family members and a close friend, I wondered if my recent years were just bad, or if I needed a better perspective. As a music producer, I am able to express my emotions through composing. After hearing a few beats that sounded similar, my wife suggested that I release them as an instrumental project. While driving, the project title "Have a Better Year" came to mind. I knew this concept deserved more, so I wrote my past years' experiences as a devotional and used the music track titles to supplement the devotions like a score. What emerged was a unique project - a musical project accompanying a 7-day devotional geared to help you change your perspective. Read this, listen to the groovy beats, practice the exercises, recite the affirmations, and watch how the perception of your year changes...for the better. Have a better year.

This book is the natural outgrowth of a personal redirection that I, quite frankly, did not see coming. By all accounts and traditional measures, as a highly-regarded and successful New York City dermatologist, I'd made it to a cherished destination. I'd achieved personal, professional, and financial success that exceeded anything I ever envisioned, particularly in the context of my mother's awe-inspiring struggles as an immigrant single parent and our humble beginnings. But, oddly, despite the glittery accoutrements, I began to feel something wasn't right. I felt incomplete and adrift, when everything around me said I should feel the opposite.Taking a deep look within to gain an understanding of what "success" at its core meant to me, I began to understand that success is more process than object, and that the journey itself is never-ending, of utmost importance, and constantly evolving. The risk is landing on a plateau and staying put, which is precisely where I was existing!The time had come for me to expand my impact, reach out beyond the life I'd built, and influence and connect with others in positive and enduring ways. I could see that, through the years, I'd laid a strong foundation that enabled me to help others chart their own paths to success. Why not attempt to touch as many people as possible? Fundamentally, I want others to know a simple truth: if I could accomplish what I did, they too could accomplish what they want.In the end, the path to self-empowerment is something we each have to determine for ourselves. The journey that follows reflects what worked for me - it's no more or less than one person's application of the mindset this book explores. We can each achieve success in our own way and express the best of who we are. I hope you'll see parts of yourself in this book and find ways to redraw or enhance your road map to personal contentment. Let's get it!

In an instant, my life stopped and my goals changed. I was a hairdresser and owner of a successful salon that I gifted away in an effort to accomplish the goal of bringing this information into the light. In 2006, I lost my only child, Breana. She was 29 and a new mother. I became obsessed with finding proof of eternal life. The mysterious event that began my journey was surprising, but I didn't rule anything out. I studied mediums, NDEs, past life stories, and the origin of religion. Those books led me into science: the quantum world, consciousness, and biology. The shock was in finding an abundance of evidence proving eternal life. Why wasn't the science community shouting this from the mountain tops? I answer that question and many more.
