Breaking Bad Habits
Few things in life are more difficult than kicking bad habits and developing new positive ones. These bad habits can lead to underachievement, decreased sense of self-worth and unhappiness. In contrast, good habits can create a kind of auto-pilot, leading to greater accomplishment, better relationships and greater happiness.
“The tips in this easy to read and absorb e-book for beating bad habits are fantastic. I am a fairly healthy person however there are some habits I have physically and mentally that I know slow me down from achieving an even higher level of health and success. I enjoyed how Ray breaks down the material into bite size, digestible bites. It helped me to understand how habits are formed, how the brain is wired to repeat habits until you can essentially “cut” the charge that leads to the impulse, he provides excellent, doable tips on how to retrain your brain for a different, better conditioned response and methods to get the new habits to stick for good. I would absolutely recommend this book as a quick and valuable tool for positive change.” — Live Well Medical Clinics
Dragon Tamer
In the late 1980’s, a powerful leader of a Mexican drug cartel, Raoul Ramirez, has found some Mayan hieroglyphs that describe how to create a drug that was once used during ancient Mayan sporting events. He sets up a first time contact with Simon Fung, a leader of a Hong Kong triad, where he figures the drug can be distributed. Whan Chan, an elderly businessman in Hong Kong, informs Fung that he is not longer going to launder his money. Chan is soon found murdered and his son, Raymond, takes over the business. After working with the local police, and getting no results, Raymond becomes obsessed with finding his father’s murderer. He asks his brother, Blake Morgan, a member of the DEA (Drug Enforcement Agency) and a one-man army, to find the man who murdered their father. Blake, who was never very close to his adopted father, has DEA matters that he must take care of before he can return to Hong Kong. But when Raymond ends up dead, Blake returns to Hong Kong and finds himself caught up the biggest drug creation plot he could ever image. Now he must trust his survival instincts and keep one step ahead of the Hong Kong triads and the Mexican drug cartels all the time searching for the murder’s of his adopted family
“This is an excellent novel. Thriller readers will love it. The reader will be involved from start to finish, it feels very plausible, and the author knows what he is talking about, having actually been born in a World War II concentration camp in Hong Kong. This gets two thumbs up.” — Paul Lappen, Vine Voice
