The Power (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780615387857)

Glenn Wolkoff has been a student of life his entire life. He was born and raised in Los Angeles, and educated at California State University Northridge and University of LaVerne Law School. From a very young age, his innate knowledge and wisdom created a sense of fear in others, so that there was a forced separation between him and his family and peers. As a result, he found childhood and early adulthood to be a lonely place. His mother loved him desperately, but couldn't understand why he was so different. A poem she penned about him when he was quite young cites: My Glenn, my son; who cares what people think; who cares what it's all about. I only know I love you; to the world I want to shout. How empty our lives would be if you were not around. Your walk is like music, I listen for the sound. Light up my life with your beautiful smile. Your twinkling eyes - this makes life worthwhile. I'll always be proud to say I gave birth to Glenn that hot summer day. That vast space and the quietude of loneliness enabled Wolkoff to hone his skills in observation. He found observing the interaction of people with each other, their environment and planet to be particularly interesting. Wolkoff's professional work in healthcare facilitated another opportunity to study the many incarnations of the human condition and impart some of the lessons and messages that are part of The Power to coworkers and clients. He noted people were like magnets: Some were attracted to the directness and truth of his compelling message, and he would find his office frequently filled with people who just wanted to be around him. Others, especially those who don't seek facts or truth and prefer to have drama punctuate their everyday existence, were repelled by him, rejecting him and his process. The most interesting observation seems now to occur frequently - when one of those who have rejected him, suddenly reverse polarity and acknowledge: "You were right." Wolkoff's profound wisdom is communicated in simple terms that make it easily comprehended and applied to people at all levels of understanding. As a result, his teaching has already helped countless people find greater awareness, opportunity and fulfillment in their day to day life. The awakened awareness has enabled many of his audience to find personal happiness by applying The Power to their daily lives, improving both their physical existence and the health and bounty of their planet.
