The Secret to Life Transformation is Joel Osteen and Anthony Robbins meets The Secret. It’s a compelling blend of practical wisdom, odds-defying life experiences, and biblical instruction that shows the reader how to CREATE A VISION for his or her life and how to make that vision a reality—regardless of circumstances or environment.
At this crucial time of economic decline and its effects on our psyche, spirit, options, and increasingly scarce finances, The Secret to Life Transformation arrives just when our nation is banking its all on the change we need now—change on every level, especially the individual.
Twelve powerful chapters instruct readers how to transform their lives. Each chapter is followed by an extraordinary person recounting how he or she has used the principles described in this book to create positive change. This unprecedented and eclectic collection of individuals—from a hairdresser who became a household name to a dirt-poor African-American kid who became a U.S. Supreme Court judge—shows how individuals from all walks of life, and no privilege, created a vision for their life and not only succeeded, but far exceeded their wildest dreams. The Secret to Life Transformation instructs and challenges you to do the same.
Julie Chrystyn was born on a farm in a rural part of the former Yugoslavia, under its Communist regime. She was granted political asylum in the United States at the age of eight. At the age of twelve, she was diagnosed with severe scoliosis (curvature of the spine) for which she underwent radical surgery and spent a year on her bed in a full body cast. During that year, she mapped out the entire course of her life—and then proceeded to live it. She rejected the prognosis of lower-body paralysis and rejected the social and economic hardships of her family; she stubbornly defied all odds and worked toward her goals with a vengeance. Julie pursued an education in journalism, political science, and economics and eventually became a leading ghostwriter for some of the world's leading political figures and business tycoons. She ventured into business and philanthropy, and she married Dwight D. Opperman, one of the most prominent figures in America's legal world.
