NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS NEVER WORK! THIS DOES.

NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS NEVER WORK! THIS DOES.

New Year Resolutions are really a waste of time.  Most people, by the end of February, will have forgotten all about the multitude of changes they say they will do in the New Year.

However, in this video is the key to making 2017 YOUR YEAR!

HANGOVER? COULD WE STILL BE "SOCIAL DRINKERS"?

Hangover? We have just left the world of social drinking

For more than 20 years, I was a highly functioning alcoholic. A serious alcoholic, but highly functioning.

Even though I helped other people get sober and, traveled the world as an international speaker, was on national radio and TV and was writing books... there is no doubt that I was an alcoholic.

If you find yourself one day a week one day a month one day every six months waking up with a hangover we have to tell the truth...A hangover is the result of consuming more alcohol than your body can possibly handle. Alcohol is a poison. In small amounts it's not detrimental, but we're talking like one drink per day...for women. For men? No more than two drinks per day.

And even though those are guidelines, there are some women and men that if they have one or two drinks they wake up the next day feeling fatigued. Not themselves.

Others like myself, when I was at the height of my drinking, I could drink easily a bottle to two bottles of wine a night, wake up in the morning shake it off, or so I thought I was, and work really hard for 10 or 12 hours every day.

But I was fooling myself. I was in complete denial. I was justifying and rationalizing my addiction. Do you do the same thing?

For me, being a very successful businessman, meant drinking with business associates. It meant going out to bars to seal deals. It meant going to parties after I just got off stage to fit in with everyone else.

About 33% of Americans struggle with alcohol. Many struggle in silence. They become isolated drinkers. Others struggle in public. They are involved in society, looking for any opportunity as an excuse to drink with others.

Some of you who read this post will be pissed off. Why is David Essel writing about alcoholism, and saying that I might be an alcoholic just because I had a hangover on New Year's Day?

Very few people who have hangovers only have them once a year. So we get really good with denial. Really good with justifying the amount we drink and what we drink.

I have helped thousands of men and women get sober, some who were bartenders or waiters and waitresses...and they went back to work in the environment where alcohol flows freely every day.

The number one step that we have to take is to get out of denial. And that's a big damn step to take. No one wants to be without alcohol, if you use it as a social lubricant, as a way to relax, as a way to go to sleep, as a way to deal with boredom, or anger, or insecurity.

I used to use alcohol for every reason imaginable to man. Every statement in the above paragraph, was open territory for me to have that first glass of wine. As the years moved on I loved to drink in solitude. After my very last counseling and coaching session at 8 PM, I would walk in the door and immediately open that first bottle of wine. I deserved it. I work hard. I make a lot of money, I should be able to do whatever the hell I want.

Great attitude right? Total denial.

Let me repeat this because for many of us it sucks to hear it, even though it's true. Whenever we wake up feeling tired, or with a hangover after night of drinking, we are no longer a social drinker. We are either in the stages of dependency or alcoholism.

Whether you are dependent upon alcohol or a full blown alcoholic, which has nothing to do with how much money you make, how many kids you have, how long you been married, or what your astrological sign is... If you need alcohol to relax or to deal with emotions in life you are an alcoholic.

The great news? If people like myself can recover and be totally recovered from alcohol you can as well.

I don't believe in the statement that once you're in alcoholic you're an alcoholic for life. What a bunch of crap. Oh my god there's so many statements from the 40s 50s and 60s that people still spout over and over and over again that have no validity. If you want to fully recover from alcohol you can. You're not an alcoholic for life. Drop that crap right outside your door and kick it to the curb.

On the other hand, if you're tired of being tired, or tired of getting into arguments with your partner, or tired of having to have a drink before you go to the party or out to dinner. Or if you're tired in general, and you don't make it to the gym, maybe you've gained weight, maybe you're impatient, contact me.

I don't judge anyone. My work in this world is to help people to reach their highest potential in life. For me and millions of other people like me, musicians, rock stars, actresses, actors, sports stars, and every day people sobriety is not only possible it's freaking amazing!

There is no better time than right now to get sober. Make 2017 the Year of Sobriety. Your attitude will improve. Your health will improve. Believe it or not your sleep will improve. Your relationships will improve. Your confidence will improve. Your self-esteem will improve. You will begin to become the very best version of yourself that you ever imagined possible.

I know it because I'm living proof myself as well as with 1000 other people that I've helped get sober. Some of whom you can even read their short stories on my website.

Don't delay. Don't wait. Do it for yourself, your family, your friends, your career, your health, relationships.


You are worth it. Prove it.

Love David

PERSONAL POWER IN 2017. DO YOU HAVE IT?

Personal Power in 2017. Do You Have It?

When I think about the new year approaching, quickly approaching, I know for sure that people who have a high level of personal power are going to rock through the new year achieving any and all goals that they are willing to put the time, effort and money into that they truly want in their life.

These people... Don't have time to be judging, ridiculing, or putting others down. They don't have time for gossip. They don't waste time on reality television shows that focus on the ridiculous nature of life.

No, these are people with personal power. They realize time is precious. Days turn into weeks, months and years in the flash of an eye. They will never fall into the lingo of victimhood.

"The reason it's so hard for me to lose weight is my genetics... It's because of the new administration that my income is suffering... The reason I don't have the love of my life is because all men are dogs... I wasn't raised with a silver spoon in my mouth so I'll never have the money that I truly desire."

The above statements are those repeated by people with minimal if any personal power. They will justify, defend, and explain away their life as victims... And they will never see how their mindset and their words and their lack of positive actions will keep them stuck right where they are from now until the day they die.

People with personal power act in the opposite direction. They ask for help. They join groups and organizations to network, and to find like-minded people who are done with excuses, and truly want to accept and appreciate the abundance that life has to offer... And are  willing to work their tails off to get it.

The great news about people and personal power is that after they spend a year or so working really hard on their bodies, their money, their relationships or more... the effort just becomes who they are. In other words getting up at 6 AM to be at the gym at seven in the beginning is hard work. But after a year of doing that it just becomes who we are. It's not hard at all anymore.

I was on a radio show the other day and the host was talking about his love of the martial arts. And how in the last four years he had quickly ascended the ladder to become a high-level black belt in his chosen martial arts field, which dismayed his family and friends around him.
He shared with me that individuals would ask him on a weekly basis how he could get up so early in the morning to go into a gym and to sweat when he could be effortlessly catching a few more hours of sleep before work.

His level of personal power had gone through the roof. He shared with me that he wasn't always like this. But once he started to change his life for the better, and started to do the uncomfortable steps of getting up early to get to the gym, it was no longer an effort anymore. His level of confidence went through the roof. His level of self-esteem improved dramatically. He finally fell in love with the person he was, and his discipline now is paying off in the most beautiful ways ever imagined.

I want the same thing to happen to you in 2017. I want you filled with personal power. If you haven't picked up chapter 1 of our number one best-selling book for free on positive thinking and the reality of success, go right now to our website and grab that chapter for free. Simply visit www.talkdavid.com right now and you can start to become inspired to make this year your year.

If I can help you personally, one on one, as your counselor and or life coach don't hesitate to email me as well. I have several coaches that I work with every week and I have for years, and without them... I know I wouldn't be at the level of success that I am today.

Wishing you the most amazing year ever.

Love David

Author Achieves #1 Best Selling Book Status on Amazon.com

FORT MYERS, Fla. - June 15, 2016 - PRLog -- MEDIA RELEASE

Author Achieves #1 Best Selling Book Status on Amazon.com

Fort Myers, FL - June 15th, 2016 - David Essel, nine-time Author, master life coach and national radio host achieves best-selling status on Amazon.com with his book, "Positive Thinking Will NEVER Change Your Life…But This Book Will!"

"David Essel's destiny is to help you become more alive
in every area of your life."
-Dr. Wayne W. Dyer

David Essel's new book, "Positive Thinking Will Never Change Your Life But This Book Will! The Myth of Positive Thinking the Reality of Success" today achieved #1 best-selling status on Amazon.com in the categories of Self-Help/Happiness

The book challenges traditional thinking in the world of positivity, and proves with hundreds of stories that it takes a lot more than changing someone's thoughts in order to change someone's lives.

Along with six New York Times best-selling authors, in this book David Essel includes a step-by-step process to help anyone get to where they would really like to be regarding achieving great love, a substantial raise in their income, and even steps to achieve the body they've always wanted.

"For 30 years my work is been centered around giving people hope so that they may achieve goals that are really important to them. This book does exactly that, by busting the myth of the simplicity of positive thinking, while at the same time sharing hundreds of stories of success so that the reader can see that what is possible for others, is possible for them as well," commented Essel.

"In his latest book, David boldly exposes the myth that "Positive Thinking" alone ( ie: "The Secret" ) will change your life. David details his program for radical personal change, which involves commitment, daily action & determination to succeed. He has helped millions of people through his national radio show, seminars, books & lectures. This is a must read for anyone disillusioned with the "quick-fix" and "just dream it" scams that sadly abound in our culture."  Nick OTisco review originally published on Amazon.

Press Release: The Self Help Industry Generates Over $10 Billion in Sales Annually. But is It Really Working? Author David Essel Says We Are Wasting Our Money.

The Self Help Industry Generates Over $10 Billion in Sales Annually. But is It Really Working? Author David Essel Says We Are Wasting Our Money.

Fort Myers, FL, May 19, 2016 --(PR.com)-- According to BrainBlogger.com, the self help industry, which includes books, Cd's and workshops, generates over $10 Billion in sales in the USA every year and every person who spends money on these products expects positive results, right?

But hold on, says Author David Essel. In his newest and 9th book, ""Positive Thinking Will Never Change Your Life… But this book will! The myth of positive thinking, the reality of success" David takes on his own industry and tells us we just might be wasting our money on promises like "If you believe it deeply enough, you can create it." Nonsense.

Author and former national radio and TV host David Essel says that we have been sold a bill of goods when it comes to what it really takes to change our lives. His newest book, "Positive Thinking Will Never Change Your Life… But this book will! The myth of positive thinking, the reality of success" is shaking the cages of many professionals and personal growth hopefuls.

"I knew it had to be different. We had to actually go against some long-held principles like the Law of Attraction, that are not actual laws at all, they are just references to a 'potential' that could happen in life. In other words the Law of Attraction is not absolute. Just because you think about millions of dollars doesn't mean it's coming to you. Just because you think about having a size 4 or size 6 body means nothing in regards to manifesting that into your life. It's absolute hogwash, unless a miracle happens. But don't just take my word for it, in our book not only do we have these 11 experts that share their personal stories, but I go back into time in my radio interviews with some of the top success experts in the world like Dr. Joe Vitale from the famous book 'The Secret', Deepak Chopra, and even the late Wayne Dyer to explain that there's no way you're going to think your way to a great body, your soul mate, or millions of dollars. Unless it's a miracle. Enough of the nonsense," says Essel.

So he decided to do something about it. He contacted six New York Times best-selling author's that he had interviewed previously as a national radio talkshow host, and then found an additional five individuals who created incredible success against all odds and asked them to be a part of this new book.

“Positive Thinking Will Never Change Your Life… But this book will! The myth of positive thinking, the reality of success” is available at Amazon.com, and the author David Essel, is available for radio, print, as well as television interviews.

Scarlett Lewis, Nurturing Healing Love: A Mother's Journey of Hope & Forgiveness featured today!

"Although we can't always choose what happens to us, we can always choose how to respond.
Children can learn to choose a loving thought over an angry one. When a child realizes that they have the power to positively impact themselves as well as those around them, it is empowering and perpetuates their positive actions and interactions." -Scarlett Lewis, Founder of the Jesse Lewis Choose Love Movement and Jesse's mother

On December 14, 2012, Scarlett Lewis experienced something that no parent should ever have to endure: she lost her son Jesse in an act of unimaginable violence. The day started just like any other, but when a gunman opened fire at Sandy Hook Elementary School, Scarlett's life changed forever. However, this isn't a story about a massacre. It's a story about love and survival. It's about how to face the impossible, how to find courage when you think you have none, and how to choose love instead of anger, fear, or hatred.



Scarlett Lewis, author, Nurturing Healing Love: A Mother's Journey of Love and Forgiveness

HERE ARE SCARLETT'S THOUGHTS, SHARED IN DAVID'S NEW BOOK "POSITIVE THINKING WILL NEVER CHANGE YOUR LIFE...BUT THIS BOOK WILL!"



"I have always been a 'glass half full' type of person. I believe this has helped my ability to alter my perspective in certain situations to have a more optimistic outlook. When my 6 year old son was murdered in his 1st grade classroom however, positivity was not going to be enough to get me through the trenches of shock, trauma and mourning. Especially when people around me were using positivity in order to avoid being present with me in my pain and to ease their own discomfort. "You had 6 years to love him!" "He is in a much better place!" "God wanted another angel!"

These seemingly supportive statements actually turned me off to positivity during my grieving. There was nothing good about having my son brutally murdered alongside 19 of his classmates, and six teachers and administrators in one of the worst school shootings in US history.

There was no way around the suffering for me. I was experiencing trauma and grief and soon learned that the two are separate and distinct. I was open to many different modalities of treatment and tried them all, from cranial sacral therapy, EMDR, MNRI, Brainspotting, Reiki, massage, hypnosis and traditional talk therapy. I practiced mindfulness, meditation and prayer. I learned that trauma can be treated and you can recover. Grief is a natural consequence of loss and I began to understand that dealing with it would be more of a process than a specific treatment. I learned to lean in to my emotions rather than avoid them and realized this would become a way of life, rather than recuperation. Thus by embracing the pain I uncovered a lot about myself, my limits, values and inner strengths.

The silver lining in tragedy is that it has inspired tremendous growth in me. It is through my journey of pain and suffering that I expanded and gained wisdom, found joy again and even discovered my mission in life! I had originally wanted to go around my grief, over, under, anything but walking directly through the fire

But it was in the pilgrimage that I found salvation. Had I been able to escape or even fast forward through the extreme discomfort I wouldn't have cultivated the strength that feeds the resilience that allows me to utilize my experience to be instrumental in creating a world-wide movement to choose love.

I have learned that it is suffering that unites humanity, not the other way around. Everyone suffers to some degree. And interestingly, it is those who have suffered that have the courage to be present in my pain. It is through this authentic connection that hearts unite. If we could get from point a to point b without discomfort then there would be no impetus for growth. Progress and maturation come through tribulation thus the key is to embrace hardship, ask what lessons you can learn, and acknowledge this germination period as the process of blossoming!"

Suze Orman, from dead broke to mega millionaire, radio tv/host and more! From our national radio show!

Suze Orman, is always a ton of fun to interview. From her work as a financial planner, to dead broke, to multimillionaire, I asked her how it happened?

Years ago, her office manager embezzled, stole, her entire life savings. Suze said that it was not until she found a way to 100% forgive this person that her financial life and business started to improve.

WHAT?????  Yes. In Suze's case, and maybe yours too, resentments, anger, and rage rob us of energy and creativity.

All resentments hold us back from living the life we are destined to live.

Forgiveness, allowed her to focus on her own life, which led to book contracts, radio and tv gigs...and inner peace.

May we all follow her path.
