I like option 1. Somehow the idea of "battling" to transcend anything seems a little counterintuitive.

Option 1.

Option 1.

#1

"Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."

[unformed 0]

"Relax, Focus, Flow"

without a doubt.


I don't know how many stressful days I have gone through repeating that over and over to myself.

I would never have registered it if it wasn't the subtitle for the first one.

"Battling the Enemy Within" sounds more like the subtitle to a movie.

"Relax, focus, and flow" sounds like advice for overcoming a bashful bladder. First thing that occured to me when I read it.

I prefer:

Overcoming the Enemy Within

Just a suggestion.

option 1 here as well

Probably not appropriate for this book, but here is a title you might be able to use on a book later on:

"Dr StrangeSwoop: Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Chow"

"There are only three things of value: younger women, faster airplanes, and bigger crocodiles" - Arthur Jones.

Just got the book in the mail yesterday and am thoroughly enjoying it. I like option 1 as well. "Battling the enemy within" to me just doesn't fit.

Is the content of the second edition changing at all?

[Shell666 0]

Definitely Option #1.

'Shell

What about:

"Transending Fear: Second Edition... Revenge of the butterflies!!!!"

Goggles and Teeth

"You fall like a greased safe!!!"

[BrianSGermain 1]

The content is pretty much the same, but I had it professionally edited. I re-arranged the order a bit to promote flow, and added a few sections here and there.

However, the original message is unchanged, and that is the important part.

The next step is getting this book out to the whuffos. That is why we are considering the subtitle change.

Is there something about surrendering to gravity that makes one a wise ass?

No, but there's probably something about being a wiseass that makes one want to skydive.

In that case, BTEW might be better, but as some said, "Battling" and "Enemy" doesn't really feel right, especially being that it uses a lot Zen-ish ideas.

Option #2 connects with me more than option #1. I think option #1 just sounds too touchy feely. Not that touching and feeling is a bad thing

Think of how stupid the average person is and realize that statistically half of them are stupider than that.

Well, I've been a smarta$$ long before I ever thought of tossing my fast falling self out of an airplane!

Most definitely. You should visit "Bonfire" more often.

I like option 1.

[McDuck 0]

Option 1 has a more Taoist feel to it.

Nice to meet you at Raeford, by the way.

Option 1 sounds more "zen" to me......you do tend to be very "zen" - so thats my vote.
