INTRODUCTION

My name is Greg Garrison , and the inspiration for coming up with this book was birthed from the damaging experience I had after getting separated from my ex. I went through a painful separation filled with lots of negative emotions, hatred, guilt, and shame, to mention a few. It took a lot to stand a conversation again with my ex, but I had to get together and let go of the past, not just for my sake but for the sake of our kids and the multitude of people looking up to me. Getting myself together was not an easy task. It took many years, lots of trial and error, and learning deep lessons, but somehow, I could find myself again through the pain and the struggle. It turned out that although divorce may not have been an attractive experience, it had lots of lessons to dish out. As years passed, I realized that all the time I spent focusing on the tension and pain was unnecessary. It all amounted to nothing! Hopefully, with the things I'd be sharing in this book, I'd help other people going through separations not to make the same mistakes that I did to save the time spent recuperating from the heart cut that a break-up gives.

Most people do not know how to handle failure. Particularly in an issue as sensitive as marriage, they would rather just shove that thought somewhere down the recesses of their mind, hoping it never happens, that they never get to experience a broken marriage. This is not a criticism of optimism or positivity, but everyone should learn to understand that things like that can occur at any point in life, and it’s a good thing to process your actions when it does. Do you sink into that awful condition after a  divorce, or do you salvage the awful situation and create a possible pedestal for yourself for the future? What’s your strategy for recuperating from a divorce?  It’s tough to face the same mistakes repeatedly, especially when they adversely affect your life and career. Once everything is all good and rosy in your marriage, then at another point, your once rosy marriage, like a pack of dominoes, all comes crumbling down. How do you pick up the pieces of your life/career and make it stronger and better after a divorce? How do you solve the emotional distress that emanates from the divorce? And if perhaps you decide to get into a relationship at some point, how exactly do you move from the past and hold on to the future jealously. These are questions that many divorcees do not have the answers to. Partly because very few people wish to address the issue and mostly because after a case of divorce or separation, they feel too miserable and unworthy of redeeming the circumstances.

The need to change this narrative prompts the writing of this book. People, particularly divorcees, need to be enlightened. They need to know how to navigate the devastating impacts of divorce and maintain a happy life with fulfillment. This will help reduce the casualties, damaged self-worth, and hindered purpose that divorce can birth if not managed accurately.

This book is targeted at divorcees or anyone currently going through a breakup. It discusses extensively how to manage divorce and separation and further analyses how readers can still maximize their experience to seize every good thing that life has always had in store for them. While I anticipate that this book will transform your life even for the better, I advise that you not merely read it as a story but also key into the tips being shared. This book is a product of the numerous years of research and my personal experience overcoming divorce. As you glance through its pages, remember that you are not alone. Not now, not ever! Hopefully, if you'd let me walk you by your hands through the healing process, greatness is definitely within your reach!

CHAPTER ONE

—————————————————————

ACCESS AND ACCEPT THE SITUATION

The topic of separation and divorce is one that, without a doubt, needs to be addressed deliberately for a couple of reasons, primarily because almost no one gets into a relationship of any sort to experience a break at some point in time. However, with the dispensation of contemporary times, it has become necessary that people get enlightened on the theme of divorce not necessarily to accommodate the trend further but to subsidize, reduce or ultimately eliminate its negative impact on people who have either experienced it in the past or those who are on the verge of experiencing it. In this regard, this chapter will first analyze the concept of divorce and how to deal with it effectively.

There have been several attempts to define divorce, but few convey it. Most people fail to realize that since divorce deals with separation, it is normal to conclude that divorce doesn't just begin with a court process. It begins quite long before it reaches the court. Two individuals who previously had an intense emotional attachment slowly drift apart until they become two completely different people who can no longer deal with their issues in unity. Sometimes, divorce can take a nasty approach. At the same time, other times, the two parties involved quietly acknowledge that they are completely different people that cannot just proceed with purpose and a prospective future together. Whichever the case is, divorce is complex and exhausting, particularly in its early years when many things need to be addressed and dealt with quite alright. Some of the issues that divorcees get their heads wrapped around are how to handle the near future, get through with financial issues, and get accustomed to co-parenting. However, it is quite unfortunate that the bid to address these seemingly pressing issues often puts less attention to even more vital ones like how to navigate through the emotional downturn and breakdown in the face of this development. The truth is that before the external issues of divorce are addressed, the internal ones must be dealt with accurately. Emotions like anger, grief, sadness, overthinking, and worry must be
