About the Book

GOD AND FORMULA ONE: 'BEYOND THE ZONE' "Aim at heaven and you'll have earth thrown in. Aim at earth and you'll hit neither." - CS Lewis, English poet, essayist and novelist "Whenever (or perhaps rather ' if ever') you arrive in heaven, let faith, hope and love be the wings that carried you there." - craig (as adapted from the words of Jonathan Edwards, a former minister in Massachusetts (New England) A look into the spirituality of Grand Prix drivers, their "religious" beliefs - what faith means to them and what part it plays in their successes, their failures... and in their lives. "If you have God on your side, everything becomes clear." - Ayrton Senna "I am able to experience God's presence on earth. If I go to church, I go on my own and I like to be there alone. I find more peace that way." - Ayrton Senna * From 'The Death of Ayrton Senna' by Richard Williams (Publisher Viking, Part of the Penguin Group, first published 1995) "Ayrton has a small problem. He thinks he can't kill himself, because he believes in God... and I think that's very dangerous for the other drivers." - Alain Prost on his great rival, Ayrton Senna from 'FORMULA 1: The Autobiography' Edited by Gerald Donaldson (and first published in the UK in 2002 by Wedenfeld and Nicolson). Thanks for the great gift, dad. "I see the human being is an incredible machine, totally undiscovered in many ways. Every one of us has a hidden tank of energy that comes out when it is needed." - Alex Zanardi (former F1 and Indycar driver, who lost both legs in a horrific accident in Germany in 2001) From www. overdrivef1.com "There are only three sports: bullfighting, mountain climbing and motor racing; all the rest are merely games." Ernest Hemingway from www.hemingwaythoughts.wordpress.com "Grand Prix racing is primarily a mental contest... it's a battle of strength of wills by the combatants and a magnificent contest, the arena to display and share unique gifts and talents. Perhaps in this 'theatre of speed', F1 is a metaphor for life itself" - craig lock Key words (tags): God, Spirit, motor racing, champions, Ayrton Senna, faith, religious faith, mind, mind-power, the zone, 'in the zone', 'beyond the zone', empowerment, religion (enough there now, craig!) THE FASTEST BOOK IN THE WORLD (4 minutes)! Published BEFORE it's been written! Seed of idea and title for book: 1.32 pm on 25th August 2011 New Zealand time (NZt) Finished uploading (to Amazon) 1.36 pm on 25th August 2011 Published by Amazon 25th August 2011 HOWZAT! (oops, sorry the books not about cricket!) Who says "work" (writing and publishing and especially writing about the "very serious" subject of God and spirituality can't be FUN (great) !!! * THE "FOUR MINITE MILE, er sorry RACE I just had this idea a minute ago (just "popped/flew into my little head"), so will write and post up at Amazon. In the meantime, if anyone is interested in my writings to date on this "airey-fairey" spiritual manuscript, they can email me at craiglock@xtra.co.nz I've been fascinated by the overlap between the human mind and spirituality for over two decades... and the Ultimate Source, God I feel is "leading" me to write and share this manuscript, yet another "true labour of love" ("Crazy" or perhaps not!!!). At least I believe so ... but then perhaps it's just me and my intuition/will/choice. We'll see! No matter, so better start writing then... or as my dear mother used to say "get cracking/weaving"... "totally impulsive" craig 25th October 2011 "Aim at heaven and you'll have earth thrown in. Aim at earth and you'll hit neither." - CS Lewis, English poet, essayist and novelist "Whenever (or perhaps rather ' if ever') you arrive in heaven, let faith, hope and love be the wings that carried you there." - craig (as adapted from the words of Jonathan Edwards, a former minister in Massachusetts (New England)
About the Author: Craig is an extensive world traveller (on a "shoestring budget") and failed professional emigrater who has spent most of his lifes savings on airfares. He is still sliding down the razor blade of life on the beautiful undiscovered island that is New Zealand, somewhere near the bottom (rude!) of the world near Antarctica. There he talks to the 60 million sheep! SOME OF CRAIG'S THOUGHTS ON THE WRITING JOURNEY: About twenty-five years ago, through a strange set of circumstances and finding himself in a small town near the bottom of the world ....and with nothing else to do, Craig started writing. About 150 books later, this "techno-dummy/bunny" started learning more about the publishing process from his "technoggeek" friend, Bill. Together with Bill, Craig developed the original and hugely popular" Online Creative Writing Course(s) (in 1997). He loves sharing "info" on the writing and publishing journey (as well as life experiences) with others "out there"....and that is his motivation in publishing this book. "We share what we know, so that we all may grow." . "I really value words and the power of them to communicate effectively; so in my various stories try to illustrate and then let readers draw their own conclusions about a certain scenario, as well as the characters searching for their own values in an increasingly complex social and political landscape. However, I do feel an obligation to give a complete picture of the situation, which is often not a clear-cut 'black or white' issue (as in South Africa). I never want to proscribe how people should think and feel my only duty as a writer is to be totally honest." - craig "Life is about finding, then following the dream and one's dream/vision comes to reality through believing in yourself, making the commitment and then creating it." All our dreams can come true...if we have the desire (burning), courage, passion, persistence and patience* to pursue them...long enough." -c * the "three pees" from www.craigsquotes.wordpress..com PPS "Together, one mind, one life at a time, let's see how many people we can impact, encourage, empower, uplift and inspire to reach their fullest potentials....and to strive for and perhaps even one day attain their wildest dreams"
