Mastering one’s life is an interesting concept; a universal desire. Deanna is writing from a perspective of experience as opposed to theory. I am lucky to know her personally and she is an authority on the topic because she practices it every day. Get this book.

“Practice! Months and months of practice. You get better and better with practice. John Wooden said, “Most of it is work; the rest of it is practice.” You have not been handed the silver platter. But neither are you stuck with the greasy Chinese leftover box. You have a choice, each and every moment of every day. You can choose to have box thinking or platter thinking. It’s hard work, but oh, so worth it.

I can understand your frustration and feelings. First, I started a few businesses with the dream of reaching my goal of being on stage. Then homeschooling our kids through high school, I set aside my career. Even though I have taken many trainings and learned skills alongside my children, they seem like nothing to the “professional” world. The energy and time invested was worth it for my children and for our family, but I felt spent.

A harrow is an agricultural implement with spike-like teeth or upright disks, drawn chiefly over plowed land to level it, break up clods, root up weeds, etc., or to disturb keenly or painfully; distress the mind, feelings, etc.

Google says, Harrowing also means acutely distressing.

To create something new in you requires some breaking up, uprooting, distressing, or painful disturbing in your life. It will hurt. But the end results will be amazing. You will become greater than you were before the test.

As you harrow and cultivate your habits, I want to be your mentor and go-to author to read for inspiration and hope. When you are feeling like you are alone in this race of life, I want to be the person and resource you turn to for that light and bright corner. When that pain of uprooting of feelings is overwhelming, turn here for comfort and encouragement. I want to help you acquire great mental qualities that set you apart from the average crowd. You can call on me to be a resource to turn to in troubling work situations or when you grow tired or weary with life, work, family, and waning dreams.

The habits you create today will determine your tomorrow, your next year, and your life five years from now. If you think about being in the same place next year and continue in your same habits, you will be there. If you think about having more and being more, and then change a few habits, you will get there.

This book is about building habits to help you grow. Habit is defined in Webster’s online dictionary as: “a behavior pattern acquired by frequent repetition or physiologic exposure that shows itself in regularity or increased facility of performance; or an acquired mode of behavior that has become nearly or completely involuntary.

A habit is something only you are able to make happen, change, or add to your life. No one will do it for you. You have to take the action required if you want something different in the future.

“Breaking Habits requires uprooting and digging out the large and small things we do each day that sabotage our growth and efforts. You get to choose what to dig up and what to leave. Harrowing is painful, disturbing, and distressing, but the end result is a crop of great seed to harvest in your life and the lives of all around you. Maybe you haven’t had the best examples in your life. Maybe your influence was not the seed that you wanted planted in your soul. Guess what? You are not doomed to stay there. Rise up! Pluck out those weeds. You can harrow out the bad and cultivate in great character for your life. Are you ready to create your future? Ready to be a new you? Are you ready to cultivate character to be the person you were destined to become? If so, great! Let’s get started. It’s your time!
