Writing Book #4 was a real treat. To my knowledge, it has accomplished something that has not been done before, i.e., giving your inner child aka your ‘Backseat driver’ an opportunity to speak to you, giving you its literal version on each of the subjects that would be found in its unique childhood ‘model of life’, put together in the first seven years.
Most people flatly disbelieve or deny that they have an inner child! I watch their eyes glaze over at the very mention. ☺
On the few occasions I have been successful, my newly initiated, in their excitement, speak to non-believers who convince my recently converted: ‘Be careful, there are lots of scammers out there today!’ And guess what? That’s right… back to zero. ☹
So… in my frustration, I began to respectfully rename the ‘inner child’ your subconscious ‘Backseat driver’ or simply: your ‘Backseat driver’. We all understand what a ‘pain’ a backseat driver can be, don’t we? A perfect analogy!
See for yourself – undeniable proof – Aristotle was correct!
‘Most people live their entire lives as a child in Aristotle’s famous quotation:
‘Give me a child until he is seven and I will show you the man.’
NEVER realising their potential, personal power or free will.
Aristotle was an ancient Greek philosopher C384 B.C. to 322 B.C.

WHO WOULD BENEFIT FROM READING ‘YOU AND Y0UR INNER CHILD TODAY’?... EVERYONE!
Here is my tribute to the inner child: Enjoy!
“I love my inner child’s primal simplicity – Her beliefs in the first seven years created our history. My inner child believes she is all she can be… She is the younger version of me.
I see everything through my inner child’s eyes… Her beliefs become my beliefs until I am wise. She is dependent and powerless in every way – I show her there’s more when I ‘shoo’ fear away.
With her by my side I make perfect sense… She is the substance, the heart and the core of my essence. Our ‘dream-team’ consciousness transforms my identity. I am complete and transcending my inner child’s destiny.”
