New Self-Help Book Provides Readers With Tools Necessary to Create and Maintain a Positive Mindset

ST. JAMES, N.Y., May 7 /PRNewswire/ -- How many of us wish we could undo something we did or change something said? How many of us wish we could have made more productive choices earlier in life? How many of us wish we could enhance our lives or change the course of our future, but do not know how?

An inspirational and empowering personal growth book by Paula Klee Parish, "The Journey to Be Your Own Best Friend: How to Discover the Power Within" (published by AuthorHouse -- http://www.authorhouse.com/), draws on the works of several of the world's most recognized experts in human behavior and, for the first time, adds the ingredient of transformational thinking to help readers discover their power within and thus, the path to a more fulfilling and joyous life. This book combines the essence of the Secret and the Laws of Attraction with empowering and insightful knowledge that engages the reader and guides them to make productive choices in their lives.

Self-discovery and transformation begin with awareness and knowledge. "The Journey to Be Your Own Best Friend" provides readers with the tools necessary to become aware of who they are, how they project themselves to others and how their patterns of thinking influence their lives. Emphasizing a direct relationship between quality of thought and quality of life, every chapter includes a brief summary with key questions that can be applied to help guide readers through their journey:

Your entire life is the manifestation of your own thinking. And, since
the quality of your thinking determines the quality of your life, if you
improve the quality of your thinking, you will, you must, improve the
quality of your life.

The first chapter, "The Awakening," opens with an analysis of self-worth and reflections on the reasons why people strive for acceptance and recognition. The chapters that follow include "Recognizing Destructive Patterns and Evaluating Choices," "Accepting the Need For Change" and "Making the Choice." The final chapter, "Learning How to Be Your Own Best Friend," focuses on one's own inner guidance system and on ways one can build a bank of self-esteem by making more deposits and eliminating withdrawals:

Our lives are the extension of our own thoughts. We are defined by our
words and our deeds. We must learn to listen to our inner guidance
system. We know the answers, we just don't listen. Know who you are and
what you are about. Be aware of what you are projecting to others. It's
all about choices. Challenge yourself to be the person you want to
be ... be the architect of your life.
