Be Like Water: Practical Wisdom from the Martial Arts by Joseph Cardillo is a 160 page non-fiction work that offers solid instructions for improving one’s life via the implementation of martial arts philosophy. Cardillo’s text and its teachings are derived from his own life experiences and martial arts training.
Be Like Water is complete with easy to implement exercises.

Full of positive, life changing visualization techniques, relaxing and empowering meditations, and affirmations, Be Like Water is highly recommended for any reader looking to make major changes in his or her life.
