As we gain confidence by responding appropriately and maintaining positive relationships with others, we acquire the best skills to effectively manage ourselves and become masters at living a positive, purposeful life.


Everything I know, I learned by Mistake: 111 Ways to Inspire Emotional Mastery is a book that focuses on building emotional competence one day at a time. It is a collection of my positive thoughts accumulated one day at a time. It will be published later in 2019.

In discussions of numerology, the number 111 represents inner-wisdom, intuition, and optimism. This number reflects spiritual guidance, mindfulness and encouragement, and it signifies an energetic and purposeful mission toward achieving our spiritual life purpose.This book focuses on building strong emotional competence through self-awareness, awareness of others, and writing as a form of self-expression. I write what I have learned because knowledge is meant to be shared, and sharing strengthens bonds between people.

In this life, I have faced disappointments, trauma, loss of family and friends, workplace bullying, harassment and more, but like so many others, I have survived and overcome what might have been insurmountable obstacles. In the process of overcoming setbacks and adapting to changes in my life, I have rediscovered my mission in life: to make a difference.

Beginning in childhood, we build emotional intelligence and gain a sense of emotional mastery, which includes the ability to respond appropriately to others every time, despite circumstances. As we gain confidence by responding appropriately and maintaining positive relationships with others, we achieve emotional competence and acquire the ability to effectively manage ourselves and others. We become masters at living a positive, purposeful life.
