Jim is the author of the Amazon bestseller Think Like a Black Belt and he tours nationally to teach his Black Belt Mindset philosophy for conference and corporate audiences.

One of the major ideas in the martial arts is to learn and practice how to “stay in the present moment” and not be distracted by anything else. They call this “focus.” Martial artists teach 15 Virtues of Black Belt Excellence which help to develop one’s character:  Respect, Courtesy, Honesty, Integrity, Self-Control, Focus, Self-Discipline, Commitment, Patience, Perseverance, Compassion, Gratitude, Love, Peace and Cooperation. Dr. Jackie and Jim artfully weave the Virtues of Black Belt Excellence with the Essential Relationship Success Skills for a book that offers practical know-how enriched by deeply meaningful and engaging stories from ancient Masters that will surely please readers of all ages and lovers of all kinds. Love Like a Black Belt: Cracking the code to being a happy couple is anticipated to be released in early 2012.
