Whether selling, managing, negotiating, planning, collaborating, pitching, instructing-or on your knees with a marriage proposal-the secret of success is based on connecting with other people.
How to Make People Like You focuses on the concept of synchrony. It shows how to synchronize attitude, body language, and voice tone so that you instantly and imperceptibly become someone the other person likes. Reinforcing these easy-to-learn skills is knowing how to read the other person’s sensory preferences-most of us are visual, some are kinesthetic, and a minority are auditory. Along the way the book covers attitude, nervousness, words that open a conversation and words that shut it down, compliments, eye cues, the magic of opposites attracting, and more.
Make trusting connections, get your point across, and inspire confidence.
The #1 most important skill for leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, teachers and managers.

The first book in the Divine Spark Trilogy.
What would happen if we all stopped lying?
Most people think it would be wonderful. And it would, for the first couple of days! And then everything would start to crumble.
Always telling the truth would put an end to politeness, create workplace chaos, and be political suicide. Governments, corporations, and the media wouldn’t just slowly erode—they would explode. But, after the collapse, something else would emerge. Something we didn’t realize we were losing.
And that change is so powerful, so beautiful; it doesn’t just shift culture. It changes civilization forever.
Welcome to The Truth About Lying
The second book in The Divine Spark Trilogy.
When no answer comes from above, where does help come from?
Some prayers go upward. The best answers come sideways.
Pray Sideways is a novel about loneliness, success, struggle, strength, mercy, connection, and the unexpected ways people become answers for one another. It asks what happens when a safer world is still not enough, when comfort does not cure emptiness, and when the help people are waiting for may already be moving toward them through ordinary human hands.
This is not a religious novel, but it is alive with spiritual questions. It does not ask what you must believe. It asks what becomes possible when people begin to notice one another again.
For anyone who has ever prayed for help, waited for a sign, or wondered why nothing seemed to happen, Pray Sideways offers a powerful and hopeful answer:
Divine Spark Rising is the final book in the Divine Spark Trilogy, completing the story begun in The Truth About Lying and continued in Pray Sideways.
Across the world, something impossible is happening. Strangers are reaching for one another. Violence is falling. Loneliness is breaking open. People are remembering who they were before fear, control, and separation taught them to live alone.
As governments panic and old systems fight to regain control, Henry, Jinji, Vincent, Lola, and Eli are drawn into a final confrontation over the dangerous beauty of human choice.
A story about truth and fear, loneliness and success, mercy and control, and the spark that rises when people stop pretending and choose differently.
Divine Spark Rising asks one unforgettable question:
Were we ever meant to survive alone?

STOP LOOKING & START SEEING
Imagine a world where a chance encounter with a stranger, a sudden burst of inspiration, or a seemingly accidental opportunity are not mere coincidences, but gentle nudges from destiny itself. Earth Angels and Magic Moments explores the concept of earth angels—ordinary people who, unknowingly, act as conduits for our dreams—and the magic moments that punctuate our lives, offering glimpses of a grander plan.
This book asks: What if the universe is actively working to bring your dreams to life? What if the seemingly random events that shape your path are, in fact, deliberate acts of cosmic orchestration? Through compelling stories and insightful reflections, Earth Angels and Magic Moments reveals how these invisible hands weave together the threads of human connection and serendipitous events, ultimately guiding us towards the fulfillment of our most cherished aspirations. It’s a testament to the power of belief, the magic of connection, and the undeniable presence of destiny in our lives
