Creating this book was a major undertaking and, as a result, I owe a debt of gratitude to many.

First, thank you to my Heavenly Father. Thank you for my days, and for my many blessings. Thank you for this book. Thank you for the opportunity to learn and grow as I created its content. Thank you for allowing me to get it right. And thank you for blessing all who read it so that they can find the solutions they need. I love Thee very much. Thank you.

Thank you to my amazing wife, Patti. Thank you, honey, for your patience with me and for being okay with all the time I had to invest in creating this book. You offered me unswerving support so that I could research, write, and revise the information within these pages and, without your support, this book would not exist. Thank you for your confidence in me. And thank you for loving me. Thank you for seeing me as your warrior king. Thank you for Finlee. I love you very much. Thank you.

Thank you to my daughter, Madison. Thank you, Madison, for your light, and for your faith in me. Thank you for seeing me the way that you do. I love you very much. Thank you.

Thank you to my daughter, Alexis. Thank you, Lexi, for believing in me. And thank you for the confidence and pride you have for me. Thank you for having faith in my ability to be a writer. I love you very much. Thank you.

Thank you to my daughter, Daniella. Thank you, Dani, for your energy and unique perspective. Thank you for your support and your belief in me and in my ability to write this book. I love you very much. Thank you.

Thank you to my friends and reviewers – Rod Foster, Jitesh Marathe, and Mert Cubukcuoglu. Thank you all for poring over the chapters of this book and making sure I've presented the most accurate content and examples possible. Thank you.

Thank you to my friend Tom "Big Al" Schreiter. Thank you, Tom, for suggesting that I start writing books and for being such a great example by taking your own advice and creating a fantastic set of training books. Thank you.
