Book excerpt: Heartbreak is an exquisitely seering pain with its never ending nausea, obsessive thinking, and crushing depression. Quite literally a personal prescription for living in hell. Trust me, I know it well and wouldn't wish it upon my worst enemy.The pain of a broken heart is universally understood and experienced, but what is not universal however, is what is done with it. For most people it's an emotional death sentence but can be quite the opposite.The pain can break you down, or break you open. It can keep you bitter, or finally remove all of your heart's armor? Could heartbreak actually be the greatest opportunity ever handed to any of us?I believe it be just that - the greatest of opportunites - yet it's the one no one wants to use. My philosophy is quite simple: this horrendous pain isn't going anywhere, at all, so why not turn it into the catalyst for every change we've ever wanted in our lives. Why not use it instead of letting it destroy us. I know because I did just that.After using the two and half year odyssey of my own divorce to very publicly change every aspect of my life, something interesting began to happen - people started reaching out to me and asking how they could do the same. People just like you who wanted to lose weight, quit smoking, get sober, or rebuild their entire identity.When a close friend had her husband walk out, I made the commitment to speak with her for 90 straight days, telling her exactly what I wished someone had told me the moment my own wife walked out.Every morning I'd send her an email with a story from my own hellacious experience, giving her something inspirational to focus on and an action step to get her from heartbroken back to thriving - as fast as possible.These letters were compiled into an email series with thousands of readers already using them to navigate the darkest chapter of their lives. My goal was simple - to get her just a little bit stronger each and every day and it worked. And worked. And worked.This book is the compliation of those exact letters, with no punches pulled. The raw truth of my experience, the truth of you're facing with no punches pulled, and the best ways to get through it all. To survive, revive, and then thrive.Here's to you. Getting past today and on to tomorrow. One day at a time - one day stronger.
