Shad Helmstetter, Ph.D. is a bestselling author of many personal growth books and the leading authority in the field of Self-Talk.
This book is a must-read, must-have book. As I say, “It’s on the required reading list.”
This is one of my all-time favorites, from an all-time favorite author. I’ve been a fan of Shel Silverstein’s books “Where The Sidewalk Ends” and “A Light In The Attic” which are filled with wonderfully wacky poems like Sarah Silvia Cynthia Stout and My Mother Said I’d Lose My Head. I raised my son on these two books – among others like Douglas Adams’ Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy five-book trilogy, Asimov, Heinlein and more.
You will find The Missing Piece Meets The Big O in the children’s section along with the other Silverstein books. Make no mistake, this is not a children’s book! It would be appropriate and entertaining to a child, and if consistently read to the child until those awkward teen years when the hormones start kicking in it would be immensely helpful to them.
No, this book is about healthy relationships.
It’s a little book, only a few pages, maybe a 15 minute read. It’s couched in simple line drawings and plain language typical of Shel Silverstein. But, it has a profound message for what it takes to have a healthy relationship; for what it means to have a healthy relationship. This book solidified for me the observation that I call the great irony in life – that you cannot HAVE a healthy relationship until you don’t NEED it. You cannot truly love another until you truly love yourself. The reality, if not the implementation, is as simple as that.
Buy this book. Read this book, again and again. If you have kids, read it to your kids, again and again – not so that they’ll get it but so that YOU’LL “get it.” All the while, contemplate what it means to be “whole.”
By the way, watch the “Relationships” video on this page (click here), which is along the same lines…

The thing that grabbed my imagination was how powerfully he (Leon Hammer) synthesizes the allopathic medical view, which in my opinion is very constricted oriented as it is to diagnosing and curing a symptom, with his deep psychiatric experience and Five Elements knowledge. We are holographic, and there are so many ways into understanding ourselves and others. I lean toward a metaphorical take on symptoms, and am very interested in how language and color can be used as needles. We express our imbalances in such fascinating ways. He really taps into that in this book.
From Amazon’s description:
Behind the acupuncture, herbal remedies and sophisticated diagnostics of Chinese medicine lies a “congenial system of healing that embodies unification of body and mind, spirit and matter, nature and man, philosophy and reality.” In this comprehensive and ground-breaking presentation, based on long experience as physician, psychiatrist, and practitioner of Chinese medicine, Leon Hammer offers a new model for appreciating the traditional healer’s effective and profound respect for individual integrity and energetic balance. Explaining, and moving beyond, the five phase (element) system, he shows that this Eastern practice is as much a spiritual science as a physical one. Accessible to the layman, yet a resource for the professional in any healing art, this book examines the natural energy functions of the human organism as a key to mental, emotional and spiritual health. It offers new insight into disease, showing how it is not merely an invasion from the outside, but rather a byproduct of a person’s unsuccessful attempt to restore one’s own balance.
This book is on Paul’s reading list.

From the Amazon description:
Conventional accounting uses the logical (albeit, flawed) formula: Sales – Expenses = Profit. The problem is, businesses are run by humans, and humans aren’t always logical. Serial entrepreneur Mike Michalowicz has developed a behavioral approach to accounting to flip the formula: Sales – Profit = Expenses. Just as the most effective weight loss strategy is to limit portions by using smaller plates, Michalowicz shows that by taking profit first and apportioning only what remains for expenses, entrepreneurs will transform their businesses from cash-eating monsters to profitable cash cows. Using Michalowicz’s Profit First system, readers will learn that:
· Following 4 simple principles can simplify accounting and make it easier to manage a profitable business by looking at bank account balances.
· A small, profitable business can be worth much more than a large business surviving on its top line.
· Businesses that attain early and sustained profitability have a better shot at achieving long-term growth.
With dozens of case studies, practical, step-by-step advice, and his signature sense of humor, Michalowicz has the game-changing roadmap for any entrepreneur to make money they always dreamed of.
