About this Site

The ideas and principles explained on this site were successfully used by the author during his extensive search for answers related to shyness. The greatest compliment an author can receive is to have someone’s life positively affected by the written word which is the goal of this site.  The author recognizes the challenge in clearly expressing thoughts of the nature on this site and trusts the reader to use their own inner guidance when searching for the truth. Questions about the material on this site are welcomed at kevin.rheaCANDO@comcast.net (remove the CANDO characters). Due to a very busy life, expect the reply to take some time.   Sorry for this complexity and for anyone who has tried to email me only to get a message saying the message has been identified as spam --- I’ve been overwhelmed with spam and had to implement blocking.

Some of the ideas presented here may seem vague, however, working with them brings clarity.  When someone is learning to read they to not understand everything at once. Only through practice, mistakes, and successes do they learn.

A Note from the Author

I remember reading so many books on shyness, consciousness, and relationships thinking, "Yes, this author really understands me and by the time I finish this book I will be changed!".  Sometimes I  was changed and sometimes I felt disappointed.

Two things are now clear:

1. Often I was changed but not in the way I had imagined.

2. Action turns belief into reality.

Change begins with examining beliefs.  The first step in change is a change in belief. Once you believe you can do something, action will turn that belief into reality.

I wish you an amazing journey and know that what you believe you bring to life.
