Birthing Greatness From Muddy Waters
This book was written with the aim to heal and create from a space of discomfort that we all have difficulty escaping. Throughout my journey in life, I’ve had the most happiness come from the realization that my previous tribulations have made me gain so much in character. Just like a lotus flower, those seemingly muddy beginnings are so necessary.
As I embark on a profound exploration of personal growth, I've discovered the beneficial power within moments of discomfort that arise from our perceived challenges. With a desire to heal and create a sanctuary within life's challenges, I draw from experiences in my own journey, revealing that the greatest happiness often arises from understanding the character forged in past tribulations. My mission is for this book to be a guiding light for readers, urging them to recognize the potency of their own challenges and guiding them towards the discovery of purpose in those very moments. Through shared experiences that may not mirror the reader's own, I illuminate relatable similarities in how individuals respond to both inner and outer challenges, fostering a sense of understanding.
The title of this book, "Dear Lotus," is not only because lotus flowers are my favorite, but also because their life cycle and survival structure are similar to a human being's personal development in many ways. This metaphorical lotus becomes a symbol of resilience and necessary nutrients that don't always look the most appealing. As I reflect on my past challenges, realizing that what seemed unappealing from a distance was, in fact, a necessary catalyst for personal greatness to emerge inside of me. Like the lotus flower, this book contends that the seemingly muddy and essential phases in life are emblematic of unshakable faith, a quality mirrored in the reader.
"Dear Lotus" encourages readers to transcend the perception of muddy and unnecessary moments, viewing them instead as vital for their growth. This narrative passionately advocates for creating beauty from these challenging experiences rather than prolonging the cycle of trauma. Rooted in my personal journey and a genuine desire to assist those wrestling with past traumas or feeling stuck in life, this book imparts the wisdom of learning to coexist and co-create within painful moments. The reader will be guided towards unlocking their untapped potential, achieving personal milestones they may have never imagined possible.
My target readers are females who crave personal growth. The age range of these individuals is between 16 and 75. Females are my target readers because our emotions, hormones, and perspective can detrimentally affect the way we view a perceived challenge. As children under the age of 16, females are often monitored by parents or guardians, so they typically do less damage to themselves and lack the hunger for self-awareness. This dynamic starts to change as we grow older. With increasing age and awareness, coupled with more responsibility and less guardianship, it becomes easy to not know how to manage our inner selves. This book will guide females on how to monitor their responses to challenges, enabling them to lead effectively and live a peaceful life, thereby resulting in a healthier society. According to Dr. Paula Robinson, a physiologist, who once said in an interview with BAZAAR, "self-help books can reach people who may never reach out for therapy or learn some of the great tools and techniques available to assist us in having a better quality of life." This book is a great beginner, reference, and pass-along resource for anyone wanting to address their perceptions of challenges. I take an emotion-focused approach that will lead the reader become more self-aware.

Dear Author,
You worked hard to write your manuscript, and you know that expert assistance is needed to ready it for the market. But perhaps you didn’t realize that working with a publisher is no longer necessary—especially publishers who charge fees to produce your book upfront and "share" more of your revenue whenever a book is sold.
1106 Design is an author services company that has served over 4,000 authors since 2001. We offer all the editorial and design services you’d expect from a publisher, transforming your manuscript into a polished book. But here's the difference: we help you secure print-on-demand printing and worldwide distribution in YOUR name. This means you'll earn several dollars more for every book sold instead of a meager “royalty” and never lose control of your book or your book files.
We understand that your book is not just a passion project but also a potential source of income. No two books or authors are alike. That's why we'll customize a package of services tailored to your needs at affordable prices, starting at $5,555. And here's the best part: after this one-time investment, every penny of revenue from book sales is deposited directly to your bank account, never to ours first.
