1. Welcome from Dr. Sheck!
______________________________________________________
Welcome to the seventh issue of the Learn To Feel Good (SM)
Newsletter! I’m writing a second newsletter this month, because
I just received a wonderful “teaching tale” from my friend Tara
Suryamani.
It’s called “The Echo of Life” and I thought it was so “right on”
that I decided to send it out to all of you without delay (can you
believe that I wrote “right on?”). It’s a simple metaphor, yet a
wonderful story about life – what we put into it, what we receive
from it. It presents one very empowering way to approach our
lives.
A quick reminder, that I will be offering my Learn To Feel Good (SM)
workshop online in September. I’ll give you more details as they
become available. Please feel free to email me with any thoughts
or suggestions or interest that you might have about this.
Again, I’d like to welcome and thank all of my new subscribers
As well as the people who have referred them. If you gain
something from this newsletter or the website and find it
valuable in some way, please pass it on to your friends, family
and colleagues around the globe. Just click on that “forward”
button on your email program.
My long-range goal is to increase my subscriber base to 50,000
members by the end of 2001. Please help me in this effort.
Again, thank you for your interest and support. And, in keeping
with the “Echo of Life” theme, let me say that you are incredible,
gifted, prosperous, loving individuals!
-Maury Adam Sheck, Psy.D.

3. Teaching Tale: The Echo of Life
______________________________________________________
A man and his son were walking in the forest. Suddenly the boy
trips and feeling a sharp pain he screams, “Ahhhhh.”
Surprised, he hears a voice coming from the mountain, “Ahhhhh.”
Filled with curiosity, he screams, “Who are you?” but the only
answer he receives is: “Who are you?”
This makes him angry, so he screams, “You are a coward!” and
the voice answers, “You are a coward!”
He looks at his father asking, “Dad, what is going on?”
“Son,” he replies, “pay attention!” Then he screams, “I admire you!”
The voice answers, “I admire you!”
The father shouts, “You are wonderful!” and the voice answers,
“You are wonderful!”
The boy is surprised, but still can’t understand what is going on.
Then the father explains, “People call this ‘ECHO’ but truly it is
‘LIFE!’ Life always gives you back what you give out! Life is a mirror
of your actions. If you want more love, give more love!
If you want more kindness, give more kindness! If you want
understanding and respect, give understanding and respect. If you
want people to be patient and respectful to you, give patience and
respect! This rule of nature applies to every aspect of our lives.”
Life always gives you back what you give out. Your life is not
a coincidence, but a mirror of your own doings.

4. Who is Dr. Sheck?
______________________________________________________
After countless years of personal psychotherapy, Dr. Maury Adam
Sheck entered the mental health field himself. His doctorate is in
Clinical Psychology. A bit on the overeducated side, he also has
degrees in Management and Engineering.
He is a licensed Clinical Psychologist (California License PSY15487)
and Clinical Director of the Manhattan Counseling Center in
Manhattan Beach, California. He is a Professor in the Department of
Human Behavior at Ryokan College in Venice, California, teaching
the two year core curriculum in psychology as well as graduate
classes in counseling psychology. In addition he supervises/trains
psychology interns at the Airport Marina Counseling Center in Los
Angeles, California.
Dr. Sheck works with individuals experiencing personal and/or
career challenges. His special niche is working with "high-tech"
and business professionals who are successful in business, yet
need support in learning to interact successfully on deeper, more
personal levels. He also treats patients one day per week for
what they can afford, his “community mental health” day.
He also has a great deal of experience in career transition issues,
having created a number of businesses. In addition to
psychotherapy, Dr. Sheck conducts business and career “coaching”
both face to face and by telephone. He is the creator of the “Learn
To Feel Good” seminar series which provides tools for
“systematically having the life you want.”
Dr. Sheck is currently President of the Southern California
Association of Imago Relationship Therapists (SCAIRT). Imago
Relationship Therapy (IRT), created by Harville Hendrix ("Getting
The Love You Want"), is a very successful form of couples
psychotherapy. Dr. Sheck finds it extremely satisfying to support
couples in working through their conflicts and distress, and
helping them to enhance their relationship.
