John Lee's new book--The Half-Lived Life: Overcoming Passivity and Rediscovering Your Authentic Self

Dear friends, clients, colleagues and customers: I turn 60 this month and my latest book The Half-Lived Life: Overcoming Passivity and Rediscovering Our Authentic Self is (in my opinion and other’s) the best and most important thing I’ve written since The Flying Boy. I hope and request that you support this unique look at an over-looked pattern and problem that faces millions today.

“Passivity is the compulsion to pursue the opposite of what we say we want.” Excerpt from The Half-Lived Life.

“John Lee mentions that "very little has been written about passivity in men." Men are always assumed to be hard-drivers, but they live out their passivity in a disguised way. This book will help both men and women see that.” -Robert Bly poet and author of Iron John

“Take advantage of John Lee’s wisdom, wit and wonderful ways to truly transform your life. If anyone can create a path of transformation for your life, John Lee can and will in this book. He has lived the pages and now passes the personal power on to you.” --Pat Love, co-author, Never Be Lonely Again: The Way

Emotional Intelligence, Boundaries and Anger

The emotionally intelligent adult can easily set boundaries and limits that can be pulled in, extended or shifted based on choice, new information, or more experience; depending on the individual situations and people. Our boundaries and limits are clear to us and to those we live with, love, or work with. Good boundaries and limits help protect us without isolating or pushing people away. They keep us at a safe distance so that we don’t have to accept anyone’s rage, shaming, or abusive words, actions or demeaning behaviors.

There are now over 75 lessons on anger management in this blog. I hope they help.
