Book Cover & Preview Text
I knew this whole philosophy and outlook would change the course of my life forever. My family and friends, it seems, would no longer be my family and friends. They would be functioning in what I will call a 3DL state, or the Third Dimension Lifestyle - a mind-set where you don’t have to think or consider the true depth of your heart and mind’s needs or wants. This mind-set is an easy place to coast in life, learning to settle for less and never challenging the will, their will - their Spirit. I, and others like me, would grow and evolve into a 4DL state, the Fourth Dimension Lifestyle. 3DLers would not want to know the differences; they would only ridicule anyone in 4DL. They would not understand the Fourth Dimension and I would forever be the reminder of the integrity they know they could possess. For those of us who do understand, this is how we live our lives. For those of you who want to know more about how to live a 4DL, Spiritual state - I welcome you into the home of Helen Keller as a witness to Miss Annie Sullivan’s miracle worker teachings.
To simplify, throughout the book you will notice a constant thread of discussion revealing what I refer to as the Four Dimension of living. Specifically in A Miracle Worker’s Primer, the Third and Fourth Dimensions will be concentrated upon and discussed. Brief definitions of the four dimensions are:
1st dimensional lifestyle refers to the mineral kingdom
2nd dimensional lifestyle refers to the animal and plant kingdom
3rd dimensional lifestyle or 3DL, refers to the human kingdom
4th dimensional lifestyle or 4DL, refers to the Spiritual kingdom
As the Universe would have it, on my own consciousness path of purpose, I created a Holistic Wellness Center called The Conscious Connection. The real beauty of the Center is revealed in the individuals who visit. They want to know, or else they wouldn’t have walked in the door. They are looking, searching and sometimes they aren’t really sure what they are looking and searching for, but they did walk in of their own accord. They may have evolved enough to have one foot straddling the 3DL and the other foot in the 4DL. They are ready for a life awakening, a Spiritual experience.
Who will be the one who would challenge their belief system? Someone who would have the courage to stand up to what feels like a threat to their very existence, to the beliefs and perceptions they currently hold? Take the Keller family, could they actually be ready for the challenge and not realize that what they really want is someone to contest their will? They understand that something profound is missing, but don’t yet realize what they are missing is their own Spirit; they are missing the 4DL. Like Miss Annie Sullivan:
“It now remains my pleasant task to direct and mould the beautiful intelligence that is beginning to stir in the child-soul.”
Annie Sullivan. Story of My Life. p 260.
For me, my days are filled with the joy and passion working with the individuals who are searching for 4DL“…to direct and mould the beautiful intelligence that is beginning to stir…” They are tired of being tired, living the 3DL. Much more difficult is the task of reaching individuals like Helen Keller, who don’t necessarily want transformation. Helen didn’t walk into Miss Sullivan’s office and say, ‘Transform me!’ It was Helen’s parents, her guardians, who asked for assistance. In a case such as this, transformation may be a little more difficult initially, as we witness the challenges Miss Annie underwent while merely contesting Helen’s will, but which proved nonetheless rewarding.
There is so much for all of us to know and do-- really. Each and every one of us has important work to do. We all have neighbors and friends that we know live horrid 3DL and we sit back and do nothing. Especially frightening, is being aware of children who are suffering at the hands of the adults in their lives. These 3DL adult/children hurt those younger than themselves. This particular 3DL person could be any adult/child: a teacher, a neighbor, a relative or maybe even you yourself. Understand the ripple effect this damaging life approach has upon the community, and upon the World at large. Why we choose to accept and tolerate this behavior is not through living the 4DL way. If you are aware of someone who needs assistance and you choose to do nothing to help, understand you are living 3DL. Human fears override your Spiritual quests.
Nothing in life will go right until life is right. There is a lot to do, much cleaning up at hand, and many magnificent miracles to reveal.
“It was no doubt because of my ignorance that I rushed in where more
experienced Angels fear to tread.”
Annie Sullivan, The Story of My Life. p 283.
What miracle will you create today? Risk taking a bold stand for a child or adult/child in your life; they depend on it, they are crying out for it. We all cry for it. Dare to be a miracle worker.
What a Miracle Worker Would Share
There is no doubt the Keller family lived a very difficult and dysfunctional lifestyle. There is no doubt that many families today experience very difficult and dysfunctional lifestyles. Who are the miracle workers for families today? Sorely lacking, there seems to be little evidence of parents championing the will of their children. What lack do today’s adult/authority figures reveal, when they are unable to encourage, empower, and teach children to be self-sufficient and autonomous? Could it be that adult/authority figures lack their own will, their own Spirit to draw from?
The answer is yes. Overall, adult/authority figures, be it in a family, corporate family or business family, may fear they will not be loved if they assert their will and challenge the will of others. Feelings of rejection, abandonment, not being loved, not being lovable… consume and paralyze the individuals with no positive result at hand. Feelings of indifference, irresolution, indecision, vacillation and wishy-washiness are experienced.
We may not like this truth and even feel threatened as these beliefs are challenged throughout this handbook. There needs to be will power, force of will, moral courage, self-discipline, strength of purpose, conviction, determination and desire.
Be the adult/authority figure in your own life. Leave behind the emotions of guilt, shame, anxiety, doubt, and confusion… don’t let these emotions be your daily examples. Rather, hang onto your hopes, dreams and aspirations; stay true to yourself. Never deter from the role of a miracle worker.
Hope whispers and encourages… try one more time.

About the Book
Life can be easy or as difficult as we want; it is a choice!
Today you are invited into the Keller household, like a fly on the wall, to witness family challenges not much different than your own. Take their lead and use this primer as a handy guide to champion your will and the will of the ones you love. Embrace a bigger picture of day to day life. Honor the Fourth Dimension; honor your Spirit, which cries for you to understand this higher dimension.
Spirit cries for inner discipline—the discipline necessary to tap into genuine potential. We are so much more than the life drama that we create and the drama that surrounds us. Know that in as little as a nanosecond we can shift from an overwrought, emotional human mess to a grounded, sure-footed spiritual being. We can have a great day, or we can create a great day! Feel that nanosecond shift.
It is this creating that we begin to tap into genuine potential, living life in harmony, synchronicity, and bliss. Life aligns. Not until then can we begin to tap into and build on the essence of who we are and who we are meant to be.
Accordingly, some would say you live a life of good luck, but we know it’s a life of better thinking, aligning, and manifesting—of constant conscious connections toward actively seeking heaven on earth as a miracle worker.
Now life is easy.
