This book is about getting the most out of each day, working on healthy habits, day in and day out, just improving yourself each day without knowing it. It's like brushing teeth - we do it twice a day; if we didn't, we'd lose an average of 12 teeth by age 50 or have 37% fewer teeth*(newsmileatlanta-blog). And yet, 2% of Americans (or 7 million) don't brush their teeth at all! Building healthy daily habits is all about starting small, just 17-minute increments, and focusing on those 17 minutes daily. Getting up early is a part of this process since almost everyone is asleep and so you can do your habits without interruption. Getting up at 3 or 4 am seems like an impossible feat, but after a few months of daily work, you can do almost anything, like write a new book, learn a new language, and get into shape. All this just by taking 15-minute blocks of time; it's that easy to do your daily habits. Over time, you can sharpen your mind and build solid strength with no harsh drugs, no matter your age.

A gold-digger is often associated with a marriage or attractiveness based on high status and wealth. Images abound where an alluring woman (or women) is seen in loving embrace with her well-off, older (sometimes much older) beau, fiance or husband. It is notably a relationship grounded on avarice and false love, rather than on true love. It is precisely here where the similarities with a "chapiadora" begin and end in this book, since I provide a rather different, more nuanced conceptualization of this personality.To delve into the world and mind, and heart of a "chapiadora" is to transcend a particular country, culture, subculture, gender, and even class or age. What is revealed in this book points to a much more complex and often harmful world phenomenon that too many of us are unwilling to discuss out of fear or embarrassment.This short story purports to be a true-to-life account. It takes a deep look into the behavior and mind-set of a "chapiadora", which, when studied side by side, I call the "Anatomy of a chapiadora". It is my sincere hope that this short account will be useful in averting emotional and economic upheaval in people's lives.

The Palm Beach P.I. aims to be more than just a collection of crazy cases and stories from my career. By sharing my personal experiences, I hope to convey the journey of Faith, Redemption, Love, Loss, Tragedy, Grief, and Hope, that have led me where I am today.Albeit while simultaneously dodging bullets, drug-dealers, hookers, and some of the most eccentric characters I have ever met in my life.More so than the cases themselves, this book is about the people I have met throughout this strange and unique career path. Some have changed my life in profound ways, some have transitioned from clients to friends, a few have tried to kill me, and some I would just as soon forget. But a desire to help people is the fundamental reason for what I have chosen to pursue as a profession. And the reason for writing this book is the hope that, by sharing my experiences, my successes and my failures, my insight, as well as the mistakes I have made along the way, I am able to reach and help others whose paths I may have never otherwise crossed. The question I continue to ask during this journey is the one I have asked myself numerous times throughout my life. What are we here to do?This collection of stories chronicles some of the most interesting, comical, and bizarre cases from my career. But it is also an exploration of my faith journey and how that brought me to the path I am currently navigating. The desire to help others led me to the work that I do, but my faith in Jesus has literally saved my life and lifted me out of the pit of grief and despair. My intention is to provide a message of hope and show that through helping other we help ourselves heal. I endeavored to make the content entertaining, but it is my sincere hope that something in one of the stories may help change your perspective in a meaningful way. Whether that be in opening your heart and mind to the contemplation of your faith, or simply just getting involved in helping other people in whatever way you are able. As crazy as it has been, I love what I do and I hope that comes across on these pages.-Frank Ciatto, the Palm Beach P.I.

Being neurodivergent means having a brain that functions differently than the dominant societal standards of "normal."Technology isn't the only field that can benefit from people with ASD. Microsoft launched an Autism Program to specifically hire individuals with autism. Things like being a team player or great communication skills don't highlight what an autistic person can add to a company.While there are many benefits to hiring people with autism, the interviewing process can often be a stopping block.Many people with autism report that they aren't able to get a job because they don't interview well. For many, the interview process was the part that was most stressful.Roughly 60% of people with ASD have average or above average intelligence, yet 85% are unemployed" an article published by Harvard Business Review called Neurodiversity as a Competitive Advantage.Some people with ASD are a natural fit in the tech world.People on the autism spectrum exhibit signs and symptoms differently.The social aspect of employment is often the most difficult for people with autism.Some people on the spectrum do something called "masking" or "camouflaging."

If you had to describe your life's goal in one sentence, what would it be? For me, it is simple: To learn how to love and accept myself unconditionally.It is easy to get lost in the chaos of our everyday living. Even when we are consciously searching for our purpose and our identity, we often look to others to fill the void, answer our questions, or assuage our loneliness and our happiness. But the only true answers come from within. When we allow others to determine our worth and diminish our authenticity, we literally give away our most sacred power. The power of Self-determination. Once we acknowledge this pattern, our universe begins to shift. We transition from living in the land of "conditions" (both self-imposed and imposed by others) to living and loving ourselves unconditionally. My journey to learning to Love Unconditionally took me on a bumpy road as I struggled to accept and love myself through loving someone with addictions, suicide attempts, mental illness, parenting, codependency, deaths, and forgiveness. I hope that my life lessons will help you rediscover your voice, your identity, and the ability to love yourself unconditionally, just like I did. Once we recognize our biggest challenge is establishing proper boundaries, accepting a new love within ourselves (and others) we realize that our worth is non-negotiable... with anyone. Rediscovering your identity can be frightening as you navigate the "unbecoming" of everything you knew or thought was in your relationships. I hope you live a truly happy life, always knowing YOU are enough for you.
