Love Is a Googly-Eyed Frog

"A loving heart is the beginning of all knowledge." -Thomas Carlyle

As I continue to promote my new book "Love Is", I thought I would share some insight into the googly-eyed frog from the book. The picture I use is not of the actual art creation I made back in Kindergarten. I certainly wish it was but alas, you will have to read the book to find out why I do not have the original in my possession.

You see over my many years, I have always had the urge to be an artist. Raphael, de Goya, Monet, and Dali to name a few. There are so many others that I have come to enjoy over the years. Even in my earliest years, I felt a connection to the art one could make. I believe it is because art gave me a window to other possibilities in life.

The physical act of producing art was to me, an extension of one's imagination. A window into one's heart and soul where that imagination is birthed. And my googly-eyed frog was the earliest form of my own imagination being revealed.

Alas, I never developed a decent talent for the arts although I have dabbled in it from time to time. Painting, acting, singing, architecture and design are the purview of others. Even so, I have always relished in being close to it. To watch and be amazed by those with artistic talents.

One might suppose that I didn't try hard enough or work on the craft enough. Yet I seemed to realize early on that the various arts tend to have a natural ability that flows from the individual. It is similar to athletic ability and the great athletes in history. No, I eventually accepted the fact that my talent lay elsewhere.

My mother helped me to understand where my talents were. My father helped to build my talents. And together they gave of themselves so that I could master what it is I do today. Each of them had a loving heart to guide me early on in life. It is a loving heart for others that matters quite a bit in life. That is what "Love Is".

I would appreciate if you pass along the word of my new book. I have it available both in paperback and in eBook formats. I feel it is important to understand what love is in order to have a great life. I believe that this book will change people lives for the better. I believe it will change your life for the better.

Love Is will take you on one man's journey to find out what love really is. It will explore his life, the stories of others, and take a close look at the greatest love story ever told. So open yourself to a different and very real way of understanding what love is. After reading this book, you will have found one of the greatest things in life, which is love.

And stay inspired my friends.

Change Happens

“Vision without action is a dream. Action without vision is simply passing the time. Action with Vision is making a positive difference.” -Joel Barker

So here we go again. It is something I have seen so many times in my career. It is inevitable in my life and in your life. What I am referring to is change. It could be a change of scenery or change of plans. Some would call it a change of direction while others would simply say change happens; a nice way of saying 's**t happens' in a raw way of speaking.

Change can be a saddening event, but it does happen. Change happens in business. When the vision is lost or there is a lack of vision, action has to occur which means change. The same is true in your everyday life as you try to move forward and achieve your best life.

"There is nothing wrong with change, if it is in the right direction." -Winston Churchill

There was great vision in the beginning. There was great action in the beginning. There was great accomplishment through out the process. It was then picked apart and marginalized by those who didn't understand the vision. In the end, for those that dreamed the potential and built that vision into reality knew it had to end.

Some things just run their course and the same thing can happen with your own visions. You dream the impossible and believe it can happen. So you put those dreams into action and build a great and wonderful thing in your life. Others will come along, either through jealousy of your success or in an attempt to take that vision from you. You fight to hold onto your vision but life and circumstance can get in the way.

And if those circumstances fall out of favor with your vision, the vision will either die or be placed upon a treadmill, going nowhere. You run and run each day, keeping the heart pounding strong but always in one place. It is at this point you must make a decision to find new vision for your life.

"First comes thought; then organization of that thought, into ideas and plans; then transformation of those plans into reality. The beginning, as you will observe, is in your imagination." -Napoleon Hill

What you do is dream of new possibility, new vision and move on from the old. You organize those visions and begin to move, you take action in the belief that those visions will become reality. The future always holds possibility which means you have new possibility when those old dreams run their course.

Never forget that a change of scenery, a change of plans, or change of direction will occur; change happens. You are going to realize some of those dreams this year. So grab a new vision for your life if you have to and make this a great 2012 year.

Love Is

Love Is by Joseph A Primm

I would like to announce the release of my fourth book called "Love Is" and give you a little taste of the book. As you probably noticed, the book came out just in time for Valentines Day. It would make a great gift for a loved one or even yourself. I say that because the book is all about love and how powerful it can be in your life.

Most people will tend to seek the advice of experts such as Dr. Joyce Brothers or maybe even columnist Ann Landers. They will buy a wide variety of books, videos and listen to radio programs to find answers relating to love. Many will turn to the advice of friends. We use the advice of friends for a wide range of topics because we trust them. Even though the advice may not always be the best, we understand that a trusted friend has our best interests in mind.

There is another place, a book, that many people forget to turn to which provides advice on sex, marriage, friends, and a big one called money. This book has been a source of advice to millions of people for well over two thousand years. And the great thing about it? It also talks about love.

My new book will take you on one man's journey to understand what love is. I will tell you stories of other great love through out history. And I will take you to the book I refer to above and explain the greatest story ever told of love. It is a story that is well known and contains a definitive explanation about the power of love.

Love is everything that you have gone through and will go through in life. To understand love and grasp what it can do in your life is quite frankly, "life changing."

So order one today for yourself, your loved ones and anyone else that could use a little help in understanding the true meaning of love. Thank you for your support and stay inspired my friends.
