Australian Author M.L. Brocklehurst Pens Book "50 DATES IN 50 STATES"

LOS ANGELES - Oct. 31, 2013 - PRLog -- Australian author M.L. Brocklehurst hit rock bottom after the death of her soul mate. As a way to recovery and self-exploration, Melanie resigned from her prestigious job, sold her Australian home and set out on a personal journey across the U.S. looking for love and the new life she was compelled to find.

50 DATES IN 50 STATES: ONE WOMAN’S JOURNEY TO POSITIVE CHANGE, by M.L. Brocklehurst will warm readers hearts as they follow her on a crazy adventure capturing the ups, downs and hilarious moments of Internet dating and traveling alone in a foreign land.  From shark diving in Hawaii to Fright Night in Philly, from making out at her first drive-in movie in California to her first stalker in New Mexico, from the married man in Virginia to a vegetarian Texan, Melanie takes you on an emotional rollercoaster as she shares her hopes, fears and most humiliating moments on a trip that changes her life.

Said author Ms. Brocklehurst of her dating odyssey: “This journey gave me so much more than I anticipated! I laughed, cried, humiliated myself (too frequently), fell in love – and out of it, rediscovered myself, found my purpose, and learned to deal with the grief of losing my soul mate, Adam. As I lived each step of a formula for Positive Change I developed decades ago I thought fulfilling my goals was the biggest achievement. But then people started to get in touch telling me how 50 Dates inspired them to change their own lives and how they were using my formula to do so – the sense that my story and the tools I provide is helping others is by far the greatest feeling ever!”

50 DATES IN 50 STATES: ONE WOMAN’S JOURNEY TO POSITIVE CHANGE is part travelogue, part romp and part “how-to guide.”  The author instructs as well as inspires, providing her readers with her clever Positive Change Formula, which she originally designed to achieve her own dreams, yet it benefits all who follow it.  By turns joyful and melancholy, this wise and funny author will uplift you as she seamlessly imparts each step of her well tested results formula in an honest, humorous and beautifully written memoir that will appeal to everyone.

Through 50 Dates in 50 States, Melanie talks about living her positive change formula and after a huge demand for more details about the system, she has also just released the POSITIVE CHANGE FORMULA, which sets out the 8-step formula together with exercises anyone can follow and use to live the life they always wanted.

The 8 steps spell the word POSITIVE, hence the name. The formula unpacks how readers can:

-          Identify their PROBLEMS and turn those into goals

-          Brainstorm the OPTIONS to help fulfill those goals

-          Determine the best SOLUTION to do this

-          Guide them through developing their own IMPLEMENTATION plan

-          Have the TENACITY and INTEGRITY to fulfill the goals set forth

-          Provide the VICTORY sought; and then – shows how to EVALUATE where one is now and what else he or she wants to achieve
