Success in my hands

Success in my hands A journey to find my own peace and freedom

Richard Cook2012
This book is part of a £1 million fundraising journey for Help for Heroes. The £1 Million target is my way of saying 'thank you' to the Armed Forces for the opportunities and adventures that came from being connected with them. My father is ex-army (Royal Engineers) with postings to Malta, Germany (Berlin and Willich), the island of St Helena (South Atlantic Ocean), and Cyprus when I was a child. For twenty-five to thirty years, I had anxiety, depression and panic attacks related to how I viewed my arms. In 2006, I went to Harley Street, London, for help with changing my thinking patterns to live a more peaceful and happier life. Now with a sense of peace and freedom from my past, I am fundraising for Help for Heroes. If you wish to support me with this challenge my fundraising webpage is: www.bmycharity.com/successinmyhands “When I first met Richard I was immediately struck by the positive energy he radiates. Rarely you meet people who are so sincere in their intentions that you can almost feel it. His desire to help others and use his own experiences and challenges to motivate others is a reflection of the way he lives his life. There’s no room for self pity in his approach, even when it may be justified, just pure and calm acceptance and a desire to be the best you can be. He is living proof of how what some may see as a disadvantage can be turned into an asset. I can’t imagine anyone meeting Richard who wouldn’t be delighted to call him a friend.” —Janet Thomson MSc, author, Tapping for Life
