This book was written as an accumulation of experiences and information that continues to help me along my own personal growth evolution. That’s right; our personal, professional, emotional and spiritual growth is ongoing. You’ve heard it before – it’s not about the destination – because every day we wake up alive, the “finish line” has been moved! It’s all about the JOURNEY.
How we perceive our environment and our lives determines whether that journey is drudgery or a joyful dance. It doesn’t matter what life challenges us with – what determines our success, our happiness, is how do we respond?
There are those who believe that change has to be hard and painful. Guess what? You’ve just defined your experience. The more you reinforce that as your truth, the more you “cement” that truth as yours. The obvious play on words here is that too often quoted belief, “no pain no gain.” Did you know that there’s evidence that the subconscious mind fails to register “negatives” (i.e. “no”). That’s why I structured the title “Know Change, Know Gain.”
Will reading this book change your life forever? Maybe. That’s always a possibility. But what if there was just one kernel of something that made a difference in how you view yourself, others, your environment, and how you can influence that to be more like what you want it to look like? Just one little morsel that you never considered before? Would it be worth it?
Here’s what I know: we are all here as a unique part of a beautiful mosaic called “Life.” Each of us is vital to the whole. My desire in sharing this book is to help one other person find ways to remove or release the obstacles they may have created or inherited from others. If we’re on the journey, we’re works in progress!
Having the life you want was never a matter of “deserving” – you exist, therefore, you deserve All Good Things – it’s a matter of how much do you want it?

It’s 2018 and a great deal has taken place in our country and around the world. There is a great deal of insanity out there, polarization and other illusions of “these are the worst of times.”
Take heart. Stay strong. Stay focused. Never underestimate the power and capabilities of a group of individuals united in a single focused intent.
Today more than ever, our focus needs to be Dignity and Respect for All.
We are One. Separation is the illusion. Everything is Energy, and as such is malleable and open to influence by our thoughts and words. We are who we have been waiting for. Be the change you wish to see in the world. It is far easier to change oneself than to try to change others. Show them a better, saner way and they will follow.
In a controlled scientific experiment, when a single orderly strand of DNA was introduced into a collection of random, disorderly DNA, the chaotic disorderly DNA began to take on the pattern of the orderly strand of DNA. Never doubt the influence of the one on the many.
As I write this I am embarking on several new projects: the debut of “Queer Dignity” youtube channel, the re-release of a dignitally remastered edition of my first “album” – “D.J. Adler – Here & Now,” and the debut of my latest book (in pdf format) “Know Change Know Gain.”
Links to the site where you can learn more will appear here in the next few days. Stay tuned!
I appreciate all who have supported me in my music and entrepreneurial endeavors over the years. It’s time to take things to the next level. Wishing you all Health, Wealth and Happiness, as only you can define that for yourself.

February 14, 2011 from N3
OLYMPIA, Wash. – Lawmakers in Olympia don’t expect to pass many hot-button social bills in the midst of the budget crisis. But gay rights advocates took Valentine’s Day as an opportunity to make the case for same-sex marriage.
————————————————
It was Valentine’s Day in 1998 that Washington lawmakers voted to ban gay marriage. Since then Washington has legalized domestic partnerships. But Democratic State Senator Ed Murray thought Valentine’s Day was just the right time to introduce a bill to recognize gay and lesbian marriage.
He says it’s appropriate even while lawmakers spend most of their time trying to balance the budget.
Ed Murray: “It’s a terrible economic time for everyone in the state, but imagine those families that don’t have the protection of marriage, so I think introducing it this year, I think its a good idea.”
Still Murray concedes lawmakers are not likely to pass gay marriage this year.

from Change.org:
Every year, children as young as 11 are trafficked involuntarily to Super Bowl cities. There, football fans – usually men, often inebriated – will pay traffickers to have sex with them.
The Texas Attorney General estimates these kids have a life expectancy of just seven years from the time they’re first trafficked.
This year, the Super Bowl Host Committee is charged “to engage in responsible planning . . . to ensure the readiness of North Texas to host the first Super Bowl in the Cowboys’ new stadium.”
Local anti-trafficking groups have repeatedly offered to help the Committee use its influence to educate fans and the public about the dangers of child trafficking — which could help to prevent thousands of rapes and abuses at America’s biggest sporting event.
But the Host Committee has refused to take meaningful action. And thousands of children will pay the price.
Tell the 2011 Super Bowl Host Committee to take a stand against child trafficking.
In Dallas, a terrific local organization called Traffick911 has created the “I’m Not Buying It” campaign. They’ve offered the Host Committee free PSAs, posters, banners and informational cards to educate the public and protect children from being abused and raped.
But the Host Committee refuses to display the information.
The Committee is working hard right now to generate good publicity for North Texas and the game, so public pressure at this moment will be especially powerful.
Tell the Super Bowl Host Committee that they have a responsibility to protect the children who’ll be trafficked to Texas for the Super Bowl:

After you sign, please forward this email to friends and family to let them know about this crisis, and how they can help.
Thanks for taking action,
– Patrick and the Change.org team
