Create, Connect, Commit to God - Beat Depression!
March 5th, 2010. Published under Fighting Addictions or Depression. No Comments.
Author Randy Tucker leads you through his own personal testimony to the brink of depression and how he was set free from that bondage. He developed a plan “Create, Connect, Commit to God” which he used in his recovery and has written the process he followed to help others find their way out.
Create, Connect, Commit is the revolutionary process that will create enduring change in your life and break the negative cycles of behavior that are holding you back, stealing your dreams, and may even be driving you into depression. It is the only system of self help that has ever worked for me, and believe me I’ve tried them all. I not only tried self help, I tried professional help, but nothing worked until I learned this process and committed to living it everyday. I sank so far into depression that I feared I would never be able to hold a job and even contemplated suicide. Create, Connect, Commit helped me conquer my fears, break free from negative cycles of thought and behavior, put my depression in check and created a rewarding, productive life for me. Create, Connect, Commit is a life changing experience and I believe in it so much that I am dedicating my life to getting it into the hands of everyone who needs it.
I tried everything to cure my depression, but nothing worked. Therapy was ineffective and medications were hit and miss. When I decided to beat depression once and for all I studied everything I could about psychology and the process of change. Create, Connect, Commit is the process I developed out of my need for something that worked. I desperately needed something that would work and this process works so well I want to make sure it is available to everyone who suffers from depression, anxiety, codependency, the fear of failure, addiction, low self esteem, obesity or who just wants to change. Nearly all psychological issues have at least one thing in common; the inability to change the negative behavior.
I’m not a doctor or psychologist and I do not have a PhD. I am an ordained and licensed minister whose battle with depression cost him his ministry, career, marriage and nearly his life. I recovered from a level of depression most never return from. I started from scratch and built a new career and a new life. I started writing about the process I discovered for creating enduring change in my life. “Create, Connect, Commit to God” “Change Anything; How I Beat Depression and The Process I Used to Create A New Life” “Create, Connect, Commit’ and other books which detail the CCC Process will soon be available at Amazon.com and on this website.
