You 2.0 is not another book from a long selection of technology manuals. It is not about software updates for your smartphone or tablet, nor a rationale for upgrading your computer hardware to a bigger, better, faster, newer model. What you will discover, however, is far more important for a life update. A life upgrade.The updates, and the ultimate upgrade, addressed here involves the very core of your being. It's about updating your self—of doing a “soul update.” It involves updating your life so you are not stuck with Version 1.0 of your self when Version 2.0 is freely available to you right away.This work presents the promise of complete life- transformation. If you choose to accept this update, you will be guided through the steps necessary to move from Version 1.0 to Version 2.0 of your self. This update process begins with the decision to let the master-programmer of your life install a whole new spiritual operating system in you. The update, and the upgrade process is total…ongoing…and powerful.At the end of each short chapter you will find a series of questions designed to help you think through and talk about what you're reading. Discussing these questions with trusted friends, teachers or family members, will help you clarify and personalize what you are reading. So if you are ready to upgrade from You 1.0 to You 2.0, turning to the next page is like clicking agree.
