But no matter which one you are there will be something within these pages for you.

We spend most of our time inside of our heads. Why? Because we have a need to process what is happening in our world. Our ego mind kicks into high gear, propelling us into the future or dragging us back into the past. Or it throws a thousand thoughts at us about what is happening in this moment. We construct layer upon layer, of fears, doubts and anxieties. It's no wonder we drive ourselves mad! And then we compound the problem by engaging our ego mind in long conversations. If this is you, then you are not alone. As the world speeds up and expectations get higher, everyone is struggling to get out of their heads.

Becoming a Master, is about pushing yourself to think and feel beyond the boundaries of the world, as you have come to know it. It is about getting back to the person, you were born to be and the discovering the greatness which lies within all of us.

There is no point saying I am awesome then hiding in the corner and not even trying. Or worst still saying the words, while all the while believing you will fail. Say it. Believe it.

"e;Regardless of how much money you have, your race, where you live, what religion you follow, you are going through something. Or you already have or you will. As momma always said, "e;Everybody's got something."e; So begins beloved Good Morning America anchor Robin Roberts's new memoir in which she recounts the incredible journey that's been her life so far, and the lessons she's learned along the way. With grace, heart, and humor, she writes about overcoming breast cancer only to learn five years later that she will need a bone marrow transplant to combat a rare blood disorder, the grief and heartbreak she suffered when her mother passed away, her triumphant return to GMA after her medical leave, and the tremendous support and love of her family and friends that saw her through her difficult times. Following her mother's advice to "e;make your mess your message,"e; Robin taught a nation of viewers that while it is true that we've all got something -- a medical crisis to face, aging parents to care for, heartbreak in all its many forms --- we've also all got something to give: hope, encouragement, a life-saving transplant or a spirit-saving embrace. As Robin has learned, and what readers of her remarkable story will come to believe as well, it's all about faith, family and friends. And finding out that you are stronger, much stronger, than you think.
