As many of you know, I just finished writing a book (titled Wake the F Up) . I recently sent it to a publisher.
The MOST important part of a submission is called the “back cover copy.” It is the main selling tool of any book. Here is mine so you can decide if you need help in waking up.
WAKE THE F UP: THE ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO TRUE HAPPINESS, FREEDOM AND CONSCIOUSNESS
“Your main purpose is to awaken. It is as simple as that. You share that purpose with every other person on this planet – because it is the purpose of humanity.” Eckhart Tolle
Welcome to the club! You are one of millions who are waking up on the earth today.
You are part of a radical shift in humanity on this planet - from a time of darkness and ignorance, to a time of abundance, and freedom. We are not only awakening as individuals but also together as a collective. We are moving out of ego and illusion into freedom.
But how do you navigate this shift?
In your hands is a true beginner’s guidebook to waking up. You will be introduced to everything from the “illusion of separation” and the ego to non-duality and living in the present moment. Most importantly you will learn how to wake up from the long sleep of egoic-based consciousness to your natural state of awakened consciousness.
You will gain answers to critical questions including:
· What is the illusion of separation and where did it come from?
· What is the ego and how to transcend it?
· What is the pain-body/shadow and how to heal it?
· What is surrender and how to let go and be in the flow?
· How to live fully in the present moment?
This book provides a type of “Coles-notes” to the topic of consciousness. At the same time, it provides the following practical five-step process that you can use on a daily basis, to boost and maintain your awakened state:
Step 1. Recognize the Human Condition
Step 2. Notice and release your thoughts.
Step 3. Transcend your egoic-mind.
Step 4. Integrate your shadow/pain-body.
Step 5. Let Go and live in the flow
You will learn through real life scenarios and engage in direct experiences while accessing the wisdom of hundreds of sages, mystics and brilliant minds such as Eckhart Tolle, Byron Katie, Michael Singer, Loch Kelly, Adyashanti, Osho and many others.
As you awaken, you will find more peace and happiness, experience improved relations and resolve problems with more ease. You will also play a critical role in the awakening of all humanity and the planet.

“Finally a book that pulls together psychology, spirituality and philosophy plus a beautiful selection of quotations from the wisdom literature – all in one book. Its like a “Coles Notes” on the vast world of spirituality. Very practical.”
“Never read another book on spirituality. Fitzgerald has managed to put everything you need in one book – from a hundreds of authors. I now understand what the non-duality folks are talking about.”
