Why ‘The Tiger’?
There are moments in life when we’re all Facing The Tiger… and even though everyone gets the experience, not everyone gets the lesson.
What is this about ‘facing a tiger’? Because we all have things that confront us: difficult people, situations, decisions, problems to be solved — even major life crises. “Do I face this tiger or not…?”
Not facing them leaves us caught in patterns that may not actually be right — or what is needed by ourselves, other people, and life. Even more important: facing the tiger is what we need to do every day to become all of who we are.
What does it mean to ‘become all of who we are’? That’s what this book is all about. As John says it:
You don’t need to change yourself.
Dr. John J. Scherer
You need to come home to yourself.
This changes everything.
WISDOM
An experience, not just a read
The book takes you from where you are now into more self-awareness, confidence, passion, satisfaction and energy — with videos, audios and exercises guiding you to find your unique answers.
Based on a live program John has proven successful with people worldwide — from top executives of international corporations to individuals passionate about personal and spiritual development.
