About this ebook
Get what you want out of life without sacrificing your soul.
A romantic relationship with sexual satisfaction
Travel that deepens life perspective
Physical health and vitality
A sense of style and presence
Powerful shift in business to include purpose and contribution
While all men want those things, most men complain of lack of motivation or purpose, emotional break downs, relationship problems and other common ailments that plague men in mid life. You’re not alone.
Over a decade I’ve sat with men from all walks of life, cultures, religions and backgrounds to hear their stories and discovered one commonality in them all: There is a sense of calling in each man that WHEN he reaches it, his life transforms almost effortlessly. Until this realization, great dissatisfaction shows itself in multiple areas, creating anxiety and frustration.
Why? Mis-diagnosis. Men think working harder or faster is going to fix their problem, creating more of the same problem their desperately trying to fix. Epic Life is about resetting yourself to create from a new perspective, a death and rebirth to become the man needed to live a successful and fruitful second half of life.

Introduction
The Six Steps to Create An Epic Life - WITHOUT SACRIFICING YOUR SOUL
It takes guts to create the life you want versus tolerate the life you have.
I know first-hand the pain of feeling out of control and powerless.
For twenty-five years, I struggled with a debilitating depression, like a dark cloud of despair that just followed me around, coating everything and everyone I touched in negativity.
I masked it very well.
I learned to perform, growing multiple real estate companies and property portfolios into multi-million-dollar revenues.
I became very sophisticated about how I dressed, spoke, and acted. I was careful about the associations I maintained and the image I projected.
While that wasn’t a bad thing, much of it was compensating for not feeling good enough, approved, accepted, or wanted.
I’ve since learned to enjoy my gifts and talents for what they are, but when we rely on things, people, circumstances outside ourselves, we suffer a thousand slow deaths.
My journey nearly ended because of suicidal thoughts and compulsive behavior that kept me enslaved. While I never went down the often-deadly rabbit trail of recreational drugs. I learned that many things can be a drug.
I was too vain to allow drugs to control me. Rather, control was my drug. Fueled by wild, intense ambition, a relentless drive to be the best kept me in an adrenaline-fueled lifestyle of using caffeine to get me going, sugar to keep me going, and alcohol to bring me down.
I was sad.
I was lonely.
I was desperate.
I had everything that everyone else wanted. I was lost.
In 2005, after a five-year engagement, my fiancée left me for another man and I hit rock bottom. I was heartbroken on every level and was officially done living the way I had.
I sold my company.
I sold cars, motorcycles, homes, everything. I was tired of the payments, the maintenance, the insurance, and my trophies were worth only a fraction of what they cost.
I had invested in all the wrong things and my soul ached.
I met a pastor that loved me. He taught me about grace, love, kindness, surrender, and how to live in peace. He taught me how to love myself, to
