We are all in denial about something. It might be small and seemingly innocent‚ such as accepting that you're not trying to excel in your job as much as you could or should be. Or‚ it could be something much larger and potentially lethal‚ such as a full-blown addiction that-at this very moment-could be destroying your life and/or someone you love. The truth is‚ no matter who you are‚ no matter how small or large your problems may seem‚ denial is holding you back from living your life to the fullest. The worst part is-we're letting it happen.
World-renowned interventionist Ken Seeley has worked with hundreds of people who desperately needed help conquering addictions and life-damaging situations. His clients have ranged from the homeless to the multi-millionaire‚ each needing professional help from every problem imaginable‚ including alcoholism‚ drug dependency‚ excessive gambling‚ sexual addiction‚ abusive behavior and mental disorders. Of all the people he has helped and the problems they have‚ denial is something that they all share in common. Denial is the #1 symptom of addiction. It's the mask that lets an addict ignore and avoid the consequences of their actions. But what most people don't know is that it's also the fuel that creates an addiction in the first place-as well as nearly every other disorder‚ behavior and habit that can affect your life negatively.
This book is a guide to understanding and exposing the hidden behaviors we all have. We learn what denial truly is and how it hides a part of our lives from ourselves that prevents us from being complete. Seeley shares the tools he uses with some of his toughest clients to help all of us put an end to denial before it takes over our lives. Filled with real life anecdotes and proven solutions‚ this comprehensive manual will help us find the happiness‚ love and success that is so often just out of our reach.
