In January of last year I scribbled on a sheet of paper the idea of writing a book about life from the point of view of someone in need of resilience and a second chance and promptly placed it in the back of a desk drawer. Then the pandemic hit, and by March my idea moved from the back of the drawer to the top of my desk in Austin, Texas. The idea started to grow into a manuscript that eventually got placed into a basket of interesting but untimely ideas. Rediscovering it this last month felt like stumbling upon scuba gear in the garage in need of a second chance. I was the one getting a second chance. I don’t want to oversell the redemptive power of writing, but damn, when I put that manuscript in front of me and started to read it for the first time after several months it was like I just dawned scuba gear in an open sea of change I felt like ...I could breathe again. With a healthy dose of conviction I pulled out all the stops and decided it had to be published if it had this effect on me. Why else? Well with the pandemic we’ve all stepped into territory that is deep. Be prepared after the first chapter you are likely to ask yourself where is this guy going? -precisely because I am taking you places few of us have ever gone before. Welcome to Resilience, Swimming in the Deep End it’s a story about a life that gets overhauled by the subconscious mind. Maybe the way you see the world isn’t working for you and so you are faced with a difficult choice in a time of crisis... this book is for you. That’s one of the driving forces behind this book where I offer the story of a guy who runs ready or not full on into a world of change.
