Are you tired of seeing your ideas die before they ever have a chance to shine? You have the talent, the vision, the drive…but something always seems to hold you back?
Here’s the hard truth: Most creatives today only tap into a fraction of their potential. The education system trained us to fit molds, follow the rules, and avoid risk, leaving our genius locked away. However, your mind holds access to an endless supply of creative potential. Everyone has access to a divine intelligence capable of attracting opportunities for creativity, connection, and abundance.
Imagine waking up every morning with an unstoppable flow of creative energy, where ideas come to you effortlessly, and your art, business, or brand finally gains the recognition it deserves. This reality is within your reach, but it requires you to unlock the power of multi-dimensional thinking—to expand your perception, see beyond the obvious, and tap into the creative flow that leads to groundbreaking ideas.
Inside Creative Manifesting, you’ll discover:
- A creative “hack” to awaken your inner genius and tap into a limitless reservoir of creative potential.
- How to block out external opinions that cloud your intuition.
- Secrets to unlocking mental flexibility.
- How to access ideas buried deep in your subconscious.
- A guide to maximizing your creative output.
- And much more.
Even if you’ve been rejected in the past or feel doubtful of your abilities, this guide will show you that it’s not about working harder—it’s about thinking differently.

You have the tools. You’ve read the books, tried the techniques, and set your goals. Yet, every day feels like a struggle to stay consistent with your practice. Sound familiar?
Here’s the truth: Distraction is the silent killer of your power. We live in a world full of noise—constant demands on your attention that steal your focus and make it almost impossible to manifest consistently. Without focus, your results are unpredictable, scattered, and frustratingly slow.
But here’s the good news: visionaries like Steve Jobs, Warren Buffet, and Tony Robbins have shared a simple truth—where attention goes, energy flows. Once you learn how to control your attention, you can manifest your desires consistently and predictably. This is why Focused Manifesting may be the most important book in the series.
Inside Focused Manifesting, you’ll discover:
- The #1 distraction that’s keeping you from manifesting the life you want—and how to eliminate it.
- A simple exercise for choosing goals that create heart-mind alignment.
- How to turn manifestation into a daily habit vs. a random event.
- Feng shui secrets.
- Mindfulness exercises.
- A counter-intuitive way of using technology.
- A little tweak for 10x-ing the effects of gratitude.
- And much, much more!

An instruction book on the art of growing older.
When we are young, we think little about growing old. But time soon catches up with us: the first gray hair, a buckling knee, the purchase of reading glasses, or when a heart attack at the age of 56 rattles your world and reminds you that none of us gets out of here alive.
In this meditative and intimate personal narrative on the act of aging, David W. Berner discovers how to accept and revel in the present, when the days that remain are fewer than those that have passed, and offers a path for celebrating life's final chapters. Through the lessons of seasonal change, the natural world, literature, and spirituality, Berner gives us a kind of instruction book on the art of growing older, challenging us to accept aging's transformative powers. As a keen observer of the world, he forms a guiding philosophy on how to discover joy in the time we have left and nourishment in life's remaining seasons.
