About Me and My Book:
I Love to Be Bothered is the result of thirty years’ research and experience, a manual for achieving a more serene life in the midst of the constant stress of daily life. The book draws on common sense, everyday examples to help ordinary people improve their lives by embracing problems, rather than fleeing from them. By following the step-by-step procedure, readers will develop greater patience, problem-solving skills, and general happiness.

Currently, so-called happiness studies are in vogue—psychologists and sociologists are publishing research about how citizens of developed countries often are unhappy in the midst of relative affluence. I Love to be Bothered offers nonacademic readers practical ways to increase contentment, while also developing their thinking skills by respectfully challenging their belief systems. This book provides the critical tools to dig through readers’ everyday experiences in order to understand human nature, which in turn sheds light on philosophical problems such as free will. As a result, readers become more psychologically balanced so that they are more patient and less likely to be disturbed by others’ anger. In addition, readers learn how to enjoy life by appreciating what they already have, rather than suffering from society's expectations of what they should acquire.

Are you on Facebook and LinkedIn?

I would like to connect with you there also. I am trying to make more friends and fans so that I can spread awareness for breast cancer during pregnancy. I was diagnosed Stage 3 in the 5th month of my pregnancy in May. My status updates on Facebook and LinkedIn are usually about my fight.

You can become a fan of mine on Facebook here:

Eddie, glad you have your profile info. at the top so I can easily learn about you quickly. I wish everyone would set this "about me" information at the top. I may create a quick video tutorial (1 minute) to show everyone how to do this and why it is important.

Regarding anger, in most cases, anger is a sign of immaturity, and fodder for humor. When I was young, I used to get mad a inanimate objects for not working properly. You know there is some humor in there somewhere! lol - Regarding free will and contentment, too many people "push" their belief systems onto others.

I am always amazed that society will punish people for activities that don't directly affect others more than activities that do directly affect others. Let's hope that society in general will move away from its meddlesome ways and allow us to pursue happiness, and if not, that we can at least find some humor in it.
