It might be!”The flaw, of course, is that while you are calm, controlled and at peace with the universe, the traffic warden who is booking your car or the boss who is setting impossible deadlines may not be in tune with your new vibrations. But, says Carlson, “As you become more peaceful, you simply aren’t bothered; you get a great feeling of satisfaction from being peaceful The things that used to bug me have no effect any more. And when you are calm, you will see changes in the people around you – not because you are changing them, but because you are setting a good example.”And, he adds, this is also a recipe for success at work. “People overestimate how much being in a hurry is important for success A calm mind is more powerful. When you are calm you make less mistakes and you don’t repeat them.
You see solutions much more easily than when you are frantic.” He is so convinced of this that later this year, he will be publishing another volume of 100 hints, this one entitled Don’t Worry, Make Money: Spiritual And Practical Ways To Create Abundance and More Fun In Your Life.And he practises what he preaches. He has given up his stress management clinic, because it was all getting too, erm, stressful. “When the book became a success, there were so many demands on my time and I didn’t want to be frantic,” he admits. “I can’t be in two places at once any more than the next person can.”. It’s an uncomfortable fact of life that 50 per cent of divorced and separated fathers lose contact with their children after just two years. A few find reconciliation some years down the line, but most never see their children again. Are they uncaring and heartless, or unhappy victims of a system that favours mothers? Marina Cantacuzino talks to four absent fathers
Frankie Warner, 43, lives in Hemel Hempstead.
He is single and in the process of starting up his own business. He last saw his daughter 18 years ago
“I WAS IN my early twenties when I became a father. It’s strange how things often turn out so different from the way you imagine I thought I was doing everything the right way round. We got married, got ourselves a flat and then decided to have children. Since my wife was five years older than me, she was very keen to start a family, and although I clearly wasn’t ready for the responsibility, I don’t recall any pressure from her.”At first I was a very attentive father and totally delighted with my daughter. I had all the time in the world for her – I’d play with her, read to her at night and everything seemed great. The unfortunate thing was that my relationship with my wife began to deteriorate and we were clearly going nowhere.
