Jim Rogers did not set out to be a writer, or at least he’s convinced that he didn’t. His first love was music and the music industry. After a 25+ year stint in the recording studio and two failed marriages he realized that if he wanted to be successful in love again for the long term, he would have to do some work… more like a lot of work. Thus began a new chapter in his life.
Over the course of the past 10 years Jim has done a lot of work, read a lot of material, dated extensively, shared with (and learned from) many friends and made a LOT of observations tying disparate facts together to reach a greater understanding of the dilemma faced by those trying to move forward with their heart in midlife.
After writing many technical articles to simply get money for airline tickets to see his son in the early years following his divorce, Jim really never thought much of his writing abilities even though praised by his editor at the publication for which he wrote. It was simply a means to an end and underplayed at that.
During a recent relationship he had the idea to start writing a book and after two aborted attempts realized that this book was his starting point. Yet, to this point it was all for fun until two writer friends took a look at what he was writing and couldn’t believe what they were reading. With their encouragement, Jim continued to pore over the experiences of his life and write more and more. His comprehension of the issues of the ‘heart’ is unique for an average man with no formal psychological education.
Currently living in Chatsworth, California, Jim is working toward his new career as a ‘heart coach’, author, seminar lecturer and someone who works to help others build relationships that they always knew they could have. He still has at least four more books that he knows he will write.
