Teresa George Quick Facts
Main Areas: General Self Help: Practical Advice & PMAI have always been the one my friends turn to for advice, support and counselling; one described me as "a wise owl".
I believe the four As to discovering yourself and finding your way to true happiness are:
Analysis, Acknowledgement, Acceptance, Action
I focus on the final step: Action, because without doing something, taking positive action we cannot effect change.
I have studied counselling, but more importantly I've had life experiences:
married at 19, divorced at 23
at age 32 I was told I couldn't have children
within 7 years my brother and parents died from long-term illnesses
I have survived cancer
Having cancer changed my perspective on life; all the usual things I had considered problems were dwarfed in comparison. I learned that it isn't so much what happens to us in life, but how we react to it that's important.
I learned what happiness really is. This realisation led me to write, How to be Happy: A Practical Guide.
My philosophy is: we only have One Life so it's important we live it well.

Anticipated Dismay - Don't worry about things before they happen.
The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation.
Why should we be in such desperate haste to succeed?
If a man does not keep pace with his companions,
perhaps itis because he hears a different drummer.
Let him step to the music which he hears,
however measured or far away.
