FORCES OF LIFE: PSYCHOLOGY: WHAT CREATES SUCCESS OR FAILURE IN OURSELVES AND OUR CHILDREN

FORCES OF LIFE: PSYCHOLOGY:

WHAT CREATES SUCCESS OR FAILURE IN OURSELVES AND OUR CHILDREN


Psychology, Counseling, and Education are at a “tipping point” on the edge of an active volcano. 

In America the suicide rate has gone up from 25,000 a year in the 1970s to 48,000 today, before the isolation of the Covid pandemic; even though we have six times more psychologists, psychiatrists, and counselors today, and despite having 400% more psychoactive medication. We now have police in every school, something unheard of in the 1970s. The suicide rate among our young ages 10 to 34 has jumped to their second leading cause of death, second only to accidents (CDC). https://www.cdc.gov/suicide/facts/index.html
Where did we go wrong? Why have psychology and psychiatry failed us so badly?
We are a nation of very unhappy people. Why?
For thousands of years, our doctors opened people’s veins and bled them to make them well. For decades doctors refused to believe the “germ” theory of disease; that tiny, microscopic organism could kill a big adult. Only after they repeatedly ran slam into reality, were they forced to change.
Psychology, education, and psychiatry today have run slam into reality. We are at that same tipping point. The ideas we learned from our textbooks do not deal with the serious issues of life. What makes for success? How can we deal with the problems of life? 
Yet, the press ignores this, not sensational enough to compete with the magical-mystical words like “DNA” or “magic pills” and ignored by our educational system who should be teaching how simple experiences in life become the forces that determine our life. 
So, what does work?
I am happy to announce that "Forces of Life", 345 pages, is now available on Amazon to cover the most important ways to prevent problems in our lives. You can find it by searching for the book ID: https://www.amazon.com/dp/173600252X

"Forces of Life" delves into the intricacies of mental health, offering profound insights and practical guidance to empower your journey towards emotional well-being. Through engaging narratives and transformative examples, this book provides a roadmap for navigating life's challenges and fostering resilience, and what leads to success in ourselves and our children.

Discover how "Forces of Life" can enrich your understanding of mental health and inspire positive change in your life, and lead to a form of Preventive Psychology that can be more effective than waiting until the problems suddenly confront us to do therapy.

My Brother’s Keeper?:

The Complicated Relationship between American Jews and Israel


"A rich work of insight on the surprising and important relationship between American Jews and Israel. A rewarding, eye-opening read" -Ambassador Alberto M. Fernandez

Everyone is focused on Israel, everyone has an opinion on it but few people really know or 
understand Israel and its complex people and politics. This book easy to read and follow history/politics books provides a fascinating explanation fo the socio-political differences between American and Israeli Jews. It also explains how Israel serves as a metaphor for the tensions between National-globalist movements that are currently shaping Europe and the United States


In 2019, President Donald Trump said that American Jews who do not support Israel are disloyal – not to America, but to the Jewish people. His remarks sparked a media firestorm in America, but not in Israel.The relationship between the world’s two largest Jewish communities – in Israel and the United States – is a
complicated one. It is consequential to Judaism, but it sheds light also on broader cultural issues at the forefront of American life, such as nationalism, Judeo-Christian relations, antisemitism, and the special relationship between
Israel and the United States. 

This book answers the following questions:
 Is Judaism a religion or a nation?
 Why are American Jews ambivalent about Israel? Why are Israelis ambivalent about American Jews?
 Why do Christian evangelicals support Israel without hesitation or reservation?
 Why are most American Jews Democrats and Israelis Republicans?
 Why is antisemitism flourishing on the left?
 Why is American Jewry demographically stagnant, while Israeli Jewry grows by leaps and bounds? 
 What is the future of American Jewry and its relationship with Israel?
