Written by JJ Barnes
I interviewed author and publicist Hugh Simpson about his life, his career, and what inspired him to write his new book, The Blissful Entrepreneur.
Tell me a bit about who you are.
I am a 75 years young author of over a dozen books and a serial entrepreneur. I have never been married so my businesses are my children and gradually they are finding new homes. I was an investigative reporter for the US based Post Newsweek TV Group for three years. Then on to Florida State University and after that a Masters in Advertising and Public Relations having one of my first clients as the Original Marlboro Man as his publicist for his classic You Are What You Wear that at last count had sold over 600,000 copies.
When did you take a step to start writing?
I had loved English and writing since prep school. I continued to write especially as a reporter for the specials I did on Civil Rights, the 1960s drug scene and consumerism. Then there was papers at FSU and my thesis in grad school on Bob Dylan.
How long did it take you to complete your first book from the first idea to release?
About one year. I realized that possibly being the first one to write on Y2K could be my ticket to publishing.
I actually did the Coast to Coast AM show with a usual audience of one million before I finished the book. The next morning I had over 3000 emails and this was 1999! Thank goodness I had friends to help out! It led to hundreds of sales.
How long did it take you to complete your latest book from the first idea to release?
The Blissful Entrepreneur became an idea after my research into how I could be more blissful. I have always been OC – obsessive compulsive – and before being involved with a 42 week training involving biofeedback ADD – Attention Deficit Disorder. I learned during the training that the majority of MALE entrepreneurs are ADD. The training pretty well cured me of ADD. The OCD actually came in handy as an author!
So to answer your question it took about 2 weeks to write it as it just flowed together as I remembered my experiences with altered states of consciousness beginning as a teenager with astral projection then later with my first time meditating, and remote viewing. I remembered the natural high I got from these experiences and realized this was a state of BLISS!
Focusing on your latest release. What made you want to write The Blissful Entrepreneur?
As mentioned above I wanted to obtain that state of BLISS even as I continued to be an OCD serial entrepreneur.
I then wanted to share my experiences with other entrepreneurs so they could reach the blissful state long before being 75!
What were your biggest challenges with writing The Blissful Entrepreneur?
As mentioned above there were no real challenges to writing this book. I just got into the zone or flow and in two weeks it was finished!
What was your research process for The Blissful Entrepreneur?
Besides my own experiences I began to study what happened to others who used the singing bowl I had been using. I found a National Institute of Health research where the singing bowl had been used and shared that the results of that in my book to give it more credibility. Same with the Harvard University research done with tuning forks even though I had been using the 458 hertz fork for several months.
The personal research was with the FOCI, which is a biofeedback unit that helps one to stay FOCUSED! Serial entrepreneurs especially have a hard time focusing because to us every new idea is the possibility of a new product or service. We are like a little kid in a toy store!
How did you plan the structure of The Blissful Entrepreneur?
I used Dylan Thomas flow of consciousness approach and just sat down and started writing it. This was especially true with using the FOCI as I related my experience with it.
Did you get support with editing, and how much editing did The Blissful Entrepreneur need?
Fortunately I have edited a friend’s book in the past and learned the importance of editing as a TV reporter. I had to tell a complete story that made sense on a sixth grade reading level to a TV audience in 30 seconds unless it was a TV special, where I had possibly two minutes.
Then later I had an award winning TV show on Comcast Today’s Health where I interviewed people like Dr. Oz several times, the late Glen Campbell, the husband and wife team who wrote The Carbohydrate Book, MD/PhD Michael Fossel, who is the foremost anti-aging physician and expert on telomere therapy, etc. I was both the co-host and co-producer requiring editing skills.
What is the first piece of writing advice you would give to anyone inspired to write a book?
See if you write a news story that is totally comprehensive and compelling in 30 seconds like I had to learn to do as a TV reporter. Back in the late 60s one of the older reporters, Joe, gave me the best advice as he looked over my shoulder as I was preparing my first story to air. He said write for a sixth grade level reading audience (now in the USA it has moved to an eight grade level) and remember how simple the reading structure were of your earliest books you read.
I have never forgotten that advice as my books are written so a person with a eighth grade education can understand them. Also with the prevalence of ADD I write my books in less than 100 pages.
Can you give me a hint about any further books you’re planning to write?
After over a dozen books I think The Blissful Entrepreneur is my last though a friend asked me if I planned to write on my Covid experience. Actually it might be an article instead of a book as my friend John, one of the editors for AARP – American Association of Retired Persons – is looking at one I have written about my discovering I had Covid and my 16 day stay in ICU.
And, finally, are your proud of your accomplishment? Was it worth the effort?
It has been a wonderful journey since writing my first one in 1999 till The Blissful Entrepreneur in 2021. I would not change anything however I think like old NFL players you should know when to realize when enough unless God/Spirit says otherwise!

Girls handled with testosterone for breast cancer require monitoring for signs of
virilization. Docs sometimes prescribe anabolic steroids to
deal with medical situations, but folks also use them illegally in some sports settings.
The major cause folks misuse anabolic steroids is to extend lean muscle mass when utilizing them at
the aspect of weight training. Anabolic steroids can only be issued by pharmacists
with a prescription. Folks who misuse anabolic steroids as performance-enhancing medication are identified to expertise critical side effects and also can turn into depending on them, leading
to long-term dependancy points. As A Outcome Of anabolic steroids are modelled on male hormones, they’ll
have a masculinising effect on the body, and a few of these results may be everlasting.
The HAARLEM study additionally found no (sub)acute medical
signs of liver harm regardless of 67% of topics reporting the utilization of oral
AAS (39). Teens may experience mood swings and acne at the start of the usage and should alert themselves of anabolic steroids’ potential
to hurt in the long term, leading to catastrophic unwanted effects like liver harm and infertility.
There isn’t any question that anabolic steroids carry therapeutic advantages for sufferers
with HIV, liver illness, renal failure, some malignancies, symptomatic hypogonadism, and burns.
Anabolic steroids are Schedule III substances under the Controlled Substances Act.
Only a small variety of anabolic steroids are permitted for either human or veterinary use.
Results of injectable and 17α-alkylated AAS on serum lipoproteins and cholesterol efflux capability.
Biochemically, this expresses itself in relatively small elevations of blood aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT),
lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) (99) values.
Rarely, AAS-induced hepatotoxicity might present itself in jaundice and
pruritus (100, 101). With such clinical shows, elevated bilirubin values are additionally
to be anticipated.
Muscle growth, additionally called muscle hypertrophy,
happens when the cells of skeletal muscle tissue, known as myocytes, improve in measurement.
It happens by way of strength training exercises corresponding to lifting weights.
During hypertrophy, there is elevated protein synthesis of actin and myosin, and the amount of sarcoplasmic fluid in the myocyte increases.
Substances possessing a protein-building impact akin to testosterone are referred to as anabolic drugs.
These steroids foster tissue development, aid in muscle recuperation post-injury,
and enhance bone power. In medical contexts, they are employed to manage
particular forms of anemia. Whereas it remains to be determined if and to what extent an AAS-induced increment in blood stress increases CVD danger, it appears prudent to discourage use when an AAS person meets the standards for hypertension.
The fee at which this happens strongly depends on the carboxylic acid group that is hooked up onto the father or mother molecule at carbon 17 of the steroid nucleus.
This attachment – esterification of the 17β-hydroxyl group – significantly retards the discharge of the compound from the oil depot by increasing its partition coefficient, i.e., making it more lipophilic and fewer hydrophilic.
Once the esterified steroid molecule reaches the systemic
circulation, either through direct diffusion or lymphatic drainage
of the interstitial fluid, esterases cleave off the ester group, releasing the parent compound (7).
The average nonprescription dose of anabolic steroids is
10–100 times stronger than one a doctor would prescribe.
This makes unwanted facet effects far more severe if you use them
with no prescription. Many people who inject anabolic steroids
might use nonsterile injection methods or share contaminated needles with different customers.
A variety of unwanted facet effects can occur when anabolic steroids are misused,
ranging from delicate effects to ones which would possibly be harmful and even life-threatening.
If used for longer periods, corticosteroid medicine must be
progressively tapered off to allow the adrenal gland to steadily take over its normal function. Stopping too rapidly may find yourself in withdrawal signs
and a probably life-threatening adrenal crisis.
Some, however not all studies, recommend that AAS users can develop a harmful enlargement of the heart.
As noted previously, coronary heart assaults and
strokes have been reported in AAS customers, but research are needed to determine if AAS users have the next risk of heart
attacks and strokes than non-users (Yesalis, 2000). Some data concerning the growth of clitoromegaly can be found from research in female-to-male transsexual patients.
In one study, stretched clitoral size elevated
from 1.4 cm at baseline to three cm after 4 months of receiving 200 mg testosterone cypionate each different week (226).
As drug testing grew to become extra sophisticated new methods have been discovered to keep away from being discovered optimistic [5].
Elevated curiosity in steroids, and quick access to each
info and medicines by way of the internet has made steroids
more readily available to a wider viewers.
Injecting massive quantities of oil based mostly steroids in a single dose might result in an an infection creating under the skin [2].
The Place steroids are injected and syringes are shared,
there’s a risk of infection with blood borne viruses corresponding
to HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis. Those continuing to inject can defend
themselves to some degree by utilizing clean equipment and not sharing with anybody else.
Swabbing the world for injection with alcohol wipes beforehand is suggested.
All this gear is out there from needle exchanges and some pharmacies.

Recovery protocol stacking
It is now extensively thought-about that doses in the
range of 5–10 mg produce noticeable results whereas inhibiting virilization. People who purchase underground
lab Anavar via the black market might claim that doses of 15–25 mg per day are modest.
This is due to copious scams the place the label states 40
mg of Anavar, however in fact, it is just
20 mg. This is a typical situation where the seller has reduce the dose
in half. Thus, the above dosage suggestions are primarily based on taking genuine
Anavar. DHT (dihydrotestosterone) is a robust androgen that binds to hair follicles on the scalp, resulting in miniaturization and
inhibited development.
In quick it will enhance the rate at which your muscle tissue get well and develop.
It is advisable to have expertise with steroids before using this
one. It is essential for repairing and constructing
muscle and many bodybuilders use this along side different
steroids to create the specified bulking impact.
People typically take between 2 to 4 IUs a day to assist cut
back the consequences of growing older and as
a lot as 10IUs to help with constructing lean muscle.
Protein is essential for muscle restore and the breaking down of
fats to extend power levels. This is actually an injectable protein which
is often utilized by docs to deal with adults and youngsters with muscle repair or development issues.
Certainly, the discount of the orbitofrontal cortex observed in such circumstances might lead
to the dearth of inhibitory management [50]. Individuals who use AASs have a higher
likelihood to be drug and alcohol abusers [4,33,57].
Long-term analysis is required to clarify the mechanisms and the natural and social processes concerned in neuropsychiatric effects of AAS abuse.
Counseling is the mainstay of therapy for anabolic steroid abuse.
The affected person and their help group, household, and friends, want to understand that the approach to this habit could also be just like habit to
different drugs and alcohol. Bodybuilders and weight lifters are not the only athletes to think that anabolic
steroid use is their road to success.
Dianabol (methandrostenolone) is probably the most generally used
oral anabolic steroid on the earth right now.
We have handled advanced steroid customers taking dosages as high as a hundred mg/day and working Anadrol cycles for as much as 8
weeks. Superdrol has been likened within the bodybuilding neighborhood to dropping a bomb in your
liver. This is accurate in our experience, mixed with excessive levels of
cardiotoxicity. Thus, beginner steroid users should strictly keep away from using Superdrol.
By specializing in studying and safety, the bodybuilding world
can encourage a greater method to grow muscular tissues.
Steroids enhance strength and power with out making muscular tissues tire out
faster or altering muscle quality. Utilizing steroids for muscle development and higher efficiency in sports activities brings up many legal and
ethical worries. There are totally different laws around
the globe that do not at all times agree. These result in debates about maintaining sports
activities fair and protecting the well being of athletes.
This is a megadose by bodybuilding requirements and an extremely harsh
cycle. In reality, the one unwanted aspect effects reported have been an absence of sexual want and elevated fatigue.
The ladies additionally did not expertise any hypertension or androgenic unwanted
facet effects either (which is contrary to its
effects in men). All anabolic steroids will suppress endogenous testosterone
production.
However, so long as adolescents perceive that anabolic steroids are required to compete at
sports, their use could proceed in the foreseeable future.
The side effects of steroids may be defined by the surplus androgen and anabolic drug ranges current in the physique.
In contrast, we generally observe damage to the HPTA from a steroid cycle, inflicting low endogenous testosterone levels for several weeks or months after.
This can enable bodybuilders to coach for longer intervals
of time with out fatiguing or overtraining from strenuous exercises.
Dbol is usually used in bulking cycles to assist users construct
large quantities of muscle dimension and power.
Long-term use of steroids is defined as taking
them for longer than 2 weeks.
Our patients generally report Anavar and testosterone undecanoate as the most effective oral steroids for
novices, because of their gentle nature and few unwanted effects.
Nevertheless, because of methyltrienolone’s excessive toxicity,
even in modest dosages, bodybuilders hardly ever use it and like injectable trenbolone as an alternative.
Anecdotally, we additionally see it trigger disturbances to
the central nervous system, negatively influencing mood and well-being.
We have discovered these neural effects similar to leisure
drugs similar to amphetamine or cocaine. The most powerful oral
steroid we’ve seen by method of constructing muscle and gaining significant strength is oral trenbolone, otherwise known as methyltrienolone.
Dianabol could be cycled by itself, amongst intermediates,
or stacked alongside different bulking steroids by advanced
users. Dianabol should never be taken with one other hepatotoxic oral steroid (such as Anadrol, Superdrol, or Winstrol).
That being said, using multiple drug at a time is a sure
fireplace method of accelerating the unwanted facet effects as
properly. Steroids refer to exogenous hormones people take
within the pursuit of reaching a sure goal.
Medically, that could be administration of ache, or reducing muscle wastage from diseases like AIDS.
For performance pushed people, this refers to hormones or medicine taken within the
pursuit of gaining muscle, losing fats and/or rising restoration. You know you could
massively improve your features with steroids however you’re
also conscious that there are large well being risks involved in going down that route.

These days of austerity and also relative panic about running into debt, many individuals balk contrary to the idea of using a credit card in order to make acquisition of merchandise or pay for any gift giving occasion, preferring, instead only to rely on this tried along with trusted procedure for making transaction – hard cash. However, if you possess the cash there to make the purchase in full, then, paradoxically, that’s the best time to use the cards for several causes.

Another thing I’ve always considered is that computers have become something that each household must have for several reasons. They provide convenient ways in which to organize the home, pay bills, search for information, study, listen to music and also watch television shows. An innovative approach to complete these tasks is by using a mobile computer. These computers are portable ones, small, powerful and mobile.

One thing I’ve noticed is the fact there are plenty of fallacies regarding the financial institutions intentions whenever talking about foreclosed. One delusion in particular is that often the bank prefers to have your house. The financial institution wants your hard earned money, not your property. They want the amount of money they loaned you along with interest. Keeping away from the bank will only draw a foreclosed conclusion. Thanks for your article.
