Description
What Are You Waiting For? You Don't Have 9 Lives! beautifully blends the familiarity of a childhood storybook with the challenges of young adulthood. In each chapter, the smart and sometimes snarky little tuxedo cat named Coco, shares her life experiences and lessons learned in tandem with those of her human "Mama." Through Coco's observations and advice, readers will: - Be encouraged to stay true to, and develop their natural talents - Learn how to recognize, reframe, and recover from life events - Realize they have the power to shape their life story There is no how-to manual or comprehensive college course to help young people navigate the transition from student to young adult. What Are You Waiting For? You Don't Have 9 Lives! will help the young adult in your family, your classroom, or your organization conquer self-limiting beliefs and move through life with an authentic sense of self worth. *A portion of the profit from this book will be dedicated to helping shelter cats find their forever home.* Praise for What Are You Waiting For? In Nancy West's book, "What Are You Waiting For? You Don't Have 9 Lives!" through the eyes of the wise and clever, Coco, a tuxedo cat, she shares insightful stories, provides guidance mixed with humor, and messages about working through fear and life's up and downs, while not letting it diminish our authentic talents, our purpose, and our beliefs. This book is bound to be a go-to resource for up and coming talent to begin to understand the laws of the universe and how they apply to your personal and professional lives. - Dave Ciliberto, Adjunct Instructor at Cornell University A tear-jerking page-turner, this book is simply spectacular. Implementing the Law of Attraction and the "T" Chart, brilliant. I give Nancy West a 40/40 on equipping college graduates with a guideline for living a more authentic and fulfilling life. On the weapons range, that's an expert marksman. - Avrie Welton, Second Lieutenant, United States Military Academy at West Point Graduate "What Are You Waiting For? You Don't have 9 Lives!" is so cleverly written and in such a fun and light way that makes it easy for the reader, especially recent graduates, to understand how we can help ourselves and "Become More." It is uplifting and inspirational and by the end, we all wish we could have a "Coco" to help us on our personal and professional journey. - Maureen McCarthy, Director at MMC Training and Consulting With a smile on my face, a tear in my eye and a hopeful joy in my heart, Coco's "lives" are the perfect metaphor for all of us as we face and traverse the challenges of life. Seeking, finding, enjoying, loving, losing, recovering, and ultimately deciding to take responsibility for our own happiness and being. Coco's wisdom is profound, and yet so obvious if we "mere humans" would just allow ourselves to accept our emotions and fears, seek out, and attract people and solutions that allow us to Believe, Seek, and Do! Whatever challenges life hands us, it comes down to saying "Says who?" and deciding and acting to make things different. Even though short term pain (investment) may be required, the outcome is ALWAYS preferable to remaining stuck and settling. Just as the Professor was able to demonstrate to his audience and his production crew, through Coco's lives, we all have the power to love ourselves and each other, overcome our differences, and attain our goals. What are we waiting for? - Steve Shap, Road Scholars International
