ABOUT REJECTION JUNKIES

This book has but one solitary purpose!

It will communicate to you some very basic truths that will enable you to

• IDENTIFY
• ISOLATE
• ELIMINATE

THE ROOT CAUSES OF YOUR EMOTIONAL CONFLICTS.

Through these pages, you will get acquainted with my family and me while you begin to understand the “Rejection Syndrome” and how it plays out in your life.

In a world where everything is constantly changing, consider this: People change, principles don’t!

Much information in print today is no more than band-aid therapy because it addresses the symptoms but ignores the root cause….the disease.

This is like the patient who is losing his eyesight and receives a prescription for stronger lenses when the real problem is a brain tumor. How foolish! Yet, the largest percentage of counseling and coaching techniques today embraces the band-aid therapy philosophy.

HERE’S TO YOUR FREEDOM!

Forward By Florence Littauer, Best-Selling Author Every personality has strengths and weaknesses. When we experience rejection, we tend to function in, and focus on our weaknesses. “REJECTON JUNKIES” enables every personality to discover the cause and cure for the rejection patterns in their lives. In Dr. Lawrence’s words, “Opposites attract, then they attack, then they retract”. In reading this book, I identified many areas in which my husband Fred and I had rejected each other in the past. We have seen first-hand how rejection exacts a tremendous toll on relationships as we have traveled around the world teaching personalities. You too will be able to identify, isolate and eliminate rejection patterns that prevent you from getting along with people in your family, workplace and church.

TESTIMONIALS:

"I met Dr. Gary Lawrence when I was going through a divorce from a 20-year marriage, with three children. In the darkest days of my life, he provided the most amazing life-changing counsel that helped me more than words can express. He taught me how to incorporate principles into my life that are now part of the fabric of my life. Those principles have helped bring me through tough times since, such as raising teenagers as a single mom, career coaching, and he has been there when I simply needed advice and direction. I highly recommend Dr. Lawrence to anyone who seeks life events coaching!" - Julie

"Dr. Lawrence's counseling has been invaluable to our family. He does not just give "band-aid theraphy" but equips people with the knowledge and skills to counsel themselves in any situation. We encourage you to let this counseling transform you, so you can live abundantly." - Gina and Charles

COACHING:

Dr. Lawrence only coaches with clients on a very selective basis. For information he can be reached at 602-315-0844 or at winwithgary@yahoo.com.

 

From Mental Morsels Food For Thought
by Dr. Gary L. Lawrence

1. The man who studies all and remains ignorant of himself, has missed the greatest education of all.

2. Opposites attract, then they attack and then they retract!

3. Most people gain their acceptance based on what they do, not who they are.

4. Repetition is the greatest teacher or the greatest torture.

5. Want to win the tug of war? Let go of the rope!

6. Relationships don’t have problems, people do.

7. If you think knowledge is expensive, try ignorance.

THE TAP DANCER

Tap dancing on the table tops
Of other people’s lives,
A Rejection Junkie’s performance trip, That’s how he thrives.

He says:

“Let me entertain you,
Let me be your friend,
Let me prove to all of you
That liking me is ‘in’.

I can do the shuffle,
I can do the swing,
I’ll do the boogie- woogie
And, for you, I’ll even sing!

I’ll go for you, I’ll do for you
Anything you want,
I just need to gain acceptance,
How’s that for being blunt?

I’m insecure, that’s for sure,
My life is full of strife.
I’m so busy dancing for you,
I don’t even have a life.

My mother doesn’t like me,
My father even less,
My brothers and my sisters
And, even me, I guess.

Dancing on your table top
Takes a lot of skill.
Having poor self image,
Takes a lot of will.

A Rejection Junkie’s lifestyle
Demands a daily fix.
Just to gain acceptance,
I’ll do many tricks.

What’s my value, who am I?
I really don’t give a ‘rip’.
I’m just a Rejection Junkie
On a big ‘performance Trip’.
