Waiting for Jack: Confessions of a Self-Help Junkie: How to Stop Waiting and Start Living Your Life

Kristen Moeller

Morgan James Publishing,  April 2010

Do you find yourself waiting for the right moment? The ideal relationship? The perfect job? Are you waiting for your "real" life to begin? Do you think the gifts of life are just around the corner? That one day you will arrive and everything will be okay? Do you endlessly search, yet never seem to find?

This is the book you have been waiting for!

Through the sharing of authentic personal stories and profound life lessons, Kristen Moeller explores our pervasive human tendency to wait for life and to look outside ourselves for answers.

Too often, we are Waiting for Jack -- whatever or whoever "Jack" is. So we don't try; we give up. We sell out and we forget who we are. We are afraid to succeed, afraid to fail, and afraid to say we are afraid. But as Wayne Gretzky said, "You'll always miss one-hundred percent of the shots you don't take!"

Waiting for Jack will inspire you to get on the path, move forward and take the shot. And, to remember that you don't have to wait for Jack!

"In Waiting for Jack, Kristen eloquently demonstrates how to become responsible for all areas of our life, including our relationship to money. So often, people don't get that wealth is a spiritual concept and that money is a byproduct of value creation. It's crucial to learn how to take responsibility for your life and do it in a way that is consistent with who you are from a spiritual perspective."
--Garrett B. Gunderson, author of Killing Sacred Cows

"Kristen Moeller's ability to tap into one of the great longings of human-kind -- that somehow what we've got now is never enough -- is riveting. I love her courage in tackling this big subject, the intimacy of her voice (she's been there and we know it!), and her far-reaching wisdom. Thanks, Kristen, for putting our longing into words and helping us navigate our way through it. I'm done 'waiting'!"

Reading this book, you will feel normal, connected, loved and empowered to live an extraordinary life.
