How to find The One without really trying

Tell me if you’re one of them:

You’re NBSB (No Boyfriend Since Birth), your age is approaching the end of the calendar days and you see no signs of anyone coming in the next year or so.

You’re brokenhearted because of your jerk ex-boyfriend.

You’ve been in and out of several relationships but you still end up alone.

You’re single and you’re dreading another cold Valentine’s Day,

If you are one of the above, then this one’s for you.

Everyone wants true love but it seems only a few find it. Sometimes finding that one man to love you for all your life and forever feels like a hopeless cause, even a painful journey.

But bestselling author Bo Sanchez offers you hope in his timeless book How to Find Your One True Love where he outlines eight steps to “attract God’s best" match for any single person.

The book begins with a tough warning: this is not some mushy book with even mushier advice on how to find your knight in shining armor or that prince charming you will live with happily ever after.

Right on the first page Sanchez reveals the real reason you’re still single: “You’ve got wrong beliefs."

And his entire book is about “smashing" those beliefs, replacing them with new and empowering ones while also providing practical advice on how to find God’s best person for you.

Savor slowly

If you’re browsing through the bookstore, this one is hard to miss. With its red cover featuring a woman looking blissfully in love, you’ll feel like picking up this book thinking, “I’ll have what she’s having."

Just like other books by Sanchez, this one is a quick read at 163 pages. But it is strongly advised that you savor the content slowly. Let the message sink in so deep that it totally transforms your thinking that the author says is an essential factor in the process of finding love.

You may want to take notes while reading so you can practice what he suggests. Pay close attention as he debunks the love myths you have acquired through the years. If you grew up believing the recurring love themes in fantasies and romantic movies, you might have been holding yourself back from finding your perfect match.

Don’t worry, this is not some complicated love manual. With Sanchez humorous vibe throughout the book, you may even find yourself laughing while reading it.

Still finding your true love is no laughing matter, so read easy, but take his advice very seriously.


Sound love advice

As he discusses the eight steps to find your one true love, Sanchez turns from Catholic lay preacher to love doctor as he hands out a practical prescription for every single person’s life situation.

And you can trust this is sound love advice as he culls lessons and experiences from hundreds of single and even married women who come to him for advice on various love problems

Taking responsibility for your love life is one of the strongest themes in this book. Sanchez tells you to ditch the “love at first sight" and “we’re meant to be" flubs that lead to wrong decisions and heartaches. Instead he encourages you to take deliberate action to meet other singles and enjoy enriching relationships.

Does this mean it’s okay for women to seek out men? Sanchez has a very interesting take on this and introduces the idea of flirtsome — wholesome flirting that women can engage in to attract the right kind of men.

He even advises women to meet as many guys and date as many of them as humanly possible. Of course, he emphasizes that these should be friendly dates on the premise that you’d want to fall in love with someone you can be friends with. He also enumerates six rules for dating to achieve the maximum benefit from this process.

Another interesting chapter to note is the fifth step where he lists 11 secrets on how to be attractive. You’ll notice that only one of these secrets involves putting on make-up and fashionable clothes. The rest is priceless advice on the attractor factors that will surely make you a man magnet.

Mature singles only

Early on, Sanchez clarified that he wrote the book mostly addressed to women but there are valuable bits of advice for the men.

He also aimed his book especially at mature singles aged 30 and above. Those in their 20s would benefit from his advice too, but Sanchez points out why it would be good for those in their early 20s to enjoy first a fulfilling singlehood.

If you’re a teen who happened to pick up this book hoping for advice on how to have love relationships, the author dedicated a special appendix for you. You’ll still benefit from keeping this book as a future reference when you’re ready to find your one true love

If you truly follow the advice outlined in How to Find Your One True Love, Sanchez is confident that your chances for a happy marriage are high. However your search turns out, following his advice will still put you in a win-win situation. All you’ve got to do is try.

Do you want to change your love life? Pick up this book and follow it to the letter. And maybe you’ll be celebrating your Valentine’s next year with Mr. Happy Ever After. - GMANews.TV
