DR Z is BETTER LIVING _____________________ Mind, Body, and Spirit Harmony of mind, body, and spirit is what Carroll Zahorsky is about. He is a creation, not a copy. To know him is to know he is the real thing. He stands for principles of substance that are as deep as the deepest sea and as high as the highest mountain. His values are as solid as a space tempered meteorite. His integrity and honor are irrefutable. His tenacity and resiliency are unshakeable. His spirit is free. DR Z is BETTER LIVING. He continually strives to teach himself how to live better and to help make the world a better place. He teaches his sons, and everyone who chooses to learn from him about ideas and concepts of living better because he believes better living really does matter. DR Z writes books to help achieve that goal. He created DR Z BETTER LIVING to help do just that. He has formed businesses and organizations to help do that. He has traveled the world to help do that. He has placed himself in harm’s way to help do that. He has been a leader throughout his life. He is consistently reaching to help those lives he touches be better. Throughout the years, Dr. Zahorsky has achieved many successes. He has penned words of special meaning on many pages and in numerous books. He has traveled to many places bringing hope and comfort to those who could benefit from what he could share with them. He has made lots of money. He has given lots of money back to touch the lives of others. He has experienced innumerable fulfillments and satisfactions. He has climbed to the top of many mountains. He has surveyed the beauty from the top in seeing and appreciating what it is to achieve what you dreamed of achieving. A few things have not always worked out as well as he would have liked. He has chosen words on some occasions that could have been said better or maybe even better left unsaid. He has had his share of shortcomings and setbacks. He has lost money at different times in trying to build something bigger and better. He has experienced financial disappointments. He has seen dreams he gave all of himself to not come to the fruition he worked so hard for and desired. He recognizes the reality that what he did right helped many right things happen that lead to successes of his and others. What he did that wasn’t so right likewise probably helped things that did not turn our right result in disappointments and setbacks on other occasions. He is aware that sometimes he was just way to far out front and too far ahead of his time for some of the dreams he pursued to come out the way he planned in the time he planned them to happen. He knows there were other times when he just did not execute as well as he could have or did not make the adjustments in his course of action or timing to achieve the desired results as planned. In looking back at where he has been, he knows the balance of making good things happen far exceed the disappointments. And he even sees the disappointments as part of the journey that he is taking as positive and rewarding. Whether running with the wind to his back and the sun shining on his face or walking in the rain with cloudy skies and sometimes violent stormy days, Carroll Zahorsky has stood tall for who and what he is. He has always reveled in the beauty of the moment in which he is engaged. He does not shrink from his own accountability. He does not pass on to someone else what is his responsibility and accountability. Though bent sometimes he remains unbroken. He continues to stand firm in who and what he is … never wavering! He refuses to allow someone to have ownership of him. He tries never to impose his will or ownership on another. His belief in God is the foundation of his being. He holds his Creator at the core of his being. First and foremost is God at the center of his existence. And he does this with an amazing balance living his beliefs without trying to impose those beliefs on another. At the same time he does not allow someone else to diminish those beliefs he holds dear in his mind, heart, and soul. And then there is his devotion to his sons. One of Carroll
Zahorsky’s greatest accomplishments has been the overwhelming commitment
he has had and continues to have with his sons. His is a heart full of deep love and respect for his sons and himself. He has always strived to teach his sons character, respect, discipline, and honor. He instills in them the values endowed in him through his own heritage from his growing up on that Oklahoma farm. He teaches them values taught to him and instilled in him by a Mom and Dad who never knew how to complain no matter their circumstances. He passes on to them those principles instilled in him by a Mom and Dad who only knew how to reach for that which was golden and positive ever looking for the silver lining. He teaches them as his Mom and Dad taught him to believe the greatest is just waiting to be embraced. The result is lots of love, character, and honor in those lives whose privilege it is for him to call his sons. One of his greatest dreams and goals was to find his soulmate. He finally found her. And she found him. She is the love of his life. She is beautiful. Together they live as one. His Books To know Carroll Zahorsky is to read his books. And remember, “books once were men”.
