Book Description:
Single Again? How To Find Love And Happiness is a unique, new, user friendly guide to living a fulfilling Single Again life. The program contains 3 audio cassettes, a companion workbook, and a daily planner, and it has been proven in case after case to help individuals who have become single again whether through divorce, widowhood or the breakup of any significant relationship rebuild their lives. The program was developed based on the analysis of more than five years of intensive research, involving interviews with more than 500 single again individuals. After 2 years of testing, and extensive additional research, the program has been revised and expanded and is now available to the public. Single Again? How To Find Love And Happiness is the only program on the market that utilizes the actual experiences and techniques of people who have successfully rebuilt their lives, to provide a positive directive for rebuilding your own life after becoming Single Again. Christine Smith's five years of research revealed that during the first year after divorce, or separation, or widowhood, fewer than 25 percent of the newly single individuals (the 'Fortunate Group') are happier and more financially stable than they were when they were married. The other 75 percent (the 'Unfortunate Group') either remain stagnant or spiral down to personal and/or financial destruction. Most important of all, by analyzing and codifying the information gleaned from the interviews, Ms. Smith was able to pinpoint the reasons that the two groups differed. Her research uncovered the fact that while those in the Unfortunate Group floundered, there were eight specific steps that every member of the Fortunate Group used to successfully reconstruct their lives. Members of the Fortunate Group are in control of their lives, and they place a great emphasis on enjoying life. Utilizing those eight steps, they are able to focus on their priorities and keep distractions at bay, rather than waste time and energy looking for someone to blame for their situation. They eat properly, they exercise, and they use a schedule to plan time for each aspect of their life and that includes planning time for their own leisure pursuits, contributing to their personal growth. Ms. Smith's research showed that faced with the same situation, those who fall into the Unfortunate Group do not follow those eight important steps, and as a result they have not been able to put their lives back in order. Their work, their child care and their financial situations are cause for high stress. They neither eat properly nor exercise properly. They do not schedule their lives and therefore rarely have quality time for themselves, and they waste enormous amounts of time and energy looking for someone to blame. One survey participant in the Unfortunate Group concluded, '...the single want to be married, the married want to be divorced and the divorced want to be dead.' Single Again? How To Find Love And Happiness takes the eight steps utilized by every member of the Fortunate Group and incorporates them into a unique, user friendly program outlining the successful path to a fulfilling life after a divorce or the death of a spouse. With its interactive workbook, audio cassettes and daily planner, the program is a vital tool for anyone who has suffered the anguish that results from the ending of any intimate relationship.
