John Roberts's Interests
|
| General | I am a published author and I have taught at the university and MBA level. I am a former combat fighter pilot with many years of military and business leadership experience, and I have engaged in a variety of high-challenge sports. This background helps me conquer my emotions, maintain a strong and positive attitude and health plan, and lead my campaign to help others fight and survive. You can do it too; its primarily a matter of attitude. | | Music | Your favorite music is of great value in maintaining your peace and spirit in the face of cancer. Build your system and library now. At times, they will be your best friend. | | Books | As an author, researcher and cancer patient, I have a strong interest in cancer books. I write reviews of them for my website and for Amazon. I am searching for the best and most current books to recommend. See my bibliography on the website. So far, I have read or surveyed over 100 cancer books. I solicit your recommendations. | | Heroes | Most cancer patients will have an opportunity to display strength and courage in the face of the disease. The heroes, like Lance Armstrong, are those who fight hard and never give up. Everyone can be a hero in their own way by taking control of their lives, meeting responsibilities and making the most of relationships and the opportunities for living the great life all around us. |

About me:
I am a cancer survivor.
Fighting cancer requires the assembly of many strong qualities, and their application at an extreme level not previously attempted. We do not know how much our cancer is beyond our control, how much it responds to treatment, and how much it can be affected by fighting it in 100 ways. But, we do know for certain that positive mental attitudes and physical strengths directly affect the outcome. Whether and when we die of cancer depends in part on ourselves. It is therefore imperative to assume that how and how hard we fight will improve the quantity and quality of our lives and could tip the balance and make all the difference between victory and defeat.
I am fighting aggressively and trying to spread that spirit to others in every way I can. If you have cancer, or are helping someone who does, perhaps you can benefit from my experience and writing.
9 million Americans live with cancer, and 550,000 die of it each year. Cancer is so pervasive and long-lasting that it eventually afflicts all of us or someone we know. Yet, half of all those now diagnosed will be cured, and many others will have treatable cancer but die of something else. We must fight aggressively, individually and in groups, to improve our performance and those odds.
Medical science now recognizes that in most cases our outlook, longevity and quality of life may be improved by a comprehensive program of mental and physical conditioning: fitness training, diet, nutrition, positive emotions and attitudes, strong personal qualities and relationships, and attentive health care and caregiving.
I can't replace a doctor and proper medical care, but I can help you become a valiant fighter by improving your mental and physical strengths.
Join us to build the optimistic attitudes and personal qualities to fight the disease in a positive and aggressive way. I suggest you explore my website and subscribe to my blogs or newsletter for further information and motivation.
