Inspiration for the Heart: Short stories to build confidence and encourage the soul

This collection of non-fiction short stories is about my unique life experiences, challenges and praises. Inspiration for the Heart is written to inspire, encourage, give hope…and you will see God’s hand woven into each story. At the end of each one, I’ve provided a brief summary of the lesson I learned from that life event, along with the address of a correlating Bible verse. I like relating to people by verbally espousing stories. The purpose may be to parallel a point, give an idea to ponder or simply bring a smile and laugh to them. Hopefully, my communication is a breath of fresh air, and not a pounding drum of baloney. I thank my mother for encouraging me to write down these true narratives. My hope is that you will enjoy the time spent in reading them. Charles Castle

Confidence To Love Your Life

Confidence To Love Your Life is an inspirational tale that reveals how to leave your comfort zone, shatter your self-doubt, and give birth to a more confident you.

In this enlightening story, three friends risk leaving the comfort of their homeland to reach a goal, win the gold, and live the promised happy life.

All believe that reaching their goal will make them successful and happy. They begin their journey with visions of greatness, expecting a quick and easy outcome…

… until an unforeseen challenge appears. Each must face paralyzing fear, emotional turmoil, worry and lame excuses, and feeling victimized by life before gaining the ability to rise up and step into each moment with confidence.

Their journey to reach a goal is a metaphor for what you want to achieve in life – whether it is money, health, weight loss, overcoming addiction, moving beyond depression, or attaining spiritual peace of mind.

The “gold” is where you routinely look for the happiness you want – the end of the goal.

Eventually, one of the characters, Aryan, discovers how to deal with the challenges successfully and experiences a dramatic personal transformation. He discovers exactly how to overcome the roots of fear, self-criticism, and his lack of confidence.

When you travel along with the other two characters, you will recognize that how you typically handle fear, stress, and setbacks actually keeps you trapped in a destructive cycle of doubt and undesirable habits.

As You Travel Along, You Will Gain…

Self-assurance to accept any challenge life brings
Trust in your decisions and actions
Inner courage to do new things
Bold new self-respect
Tremendous confidence to get “on a roll” and stay “on a roll”

Special Bonus!

Experience an empowering 9-step self-confidence building session that will dramatically increase your faith in own abilities.

Discover for yourself precisely how to gain confidence, so that you can shape a new life with less stress and more success.

This Self Confidence book will give you the tools required to easily overcome doubt when it comes to achieving your goals.

Here are just some of the Inspirational Tips revealed in this incredible bonus section…

Know how to “follow your bliss”
Understand what core confidence is and where to find it
How to trust your own abilities
Activate the untapped power of your imagination
How to stop struggling and easily move beyond obstacles
Gain irresistible, effective self-leadership
Move past knowing what to do, but not doing it
Release pent up emotional energy without getting caught in the turmoil
How to gain self-appreciation
Planting the seeds of hope and optimism
Feel tremendous freedom and inner peace

Can you gain confidence?

Absolutely! Confidence is not some mystical trait that some people are born with and others aren’t. Being confident in yourself and your ability to achieve your goals is attainable.

Building confidence is a ongoing process that evolves, grows, and expands as you place your attention on it. It is an ever-expanding realization that you are safe in the world, and that you have the ability to create change in your life.
