Human Mechatronics
Why do we humans do what we do – whatever it is we do in our daily lives? What, or who, has influenced us over the years, or even today, to have us behave and say the things we do? There is a double-edge to the power gained by influential forces. On one side, these things we do, they can be good – on the other side, they can be bad. They can be creative – they can be destructive. These actions can heal and make others happy – or they can hurt and cause others pain. Looking in a mirror, our own actions can make us happy – yet our own actions can instead cause us pain?
Why do some humans shout and lie to others trying to control the masses, yet those very masses get excited and either blindly mutate into what is now controlling them or, instead, they become passive and subservient from listening to that very someone shouting and now controlling them? Either way, the mind is now being controlled by that influential force. Why does an individual stay in a toxic and damaging environment even though, admitting to a friend, they very well know that they should leave.
Why does a certain group of people believe and focus so intently on their way of living and governing the people being the only correct way yet, their fellow neighbors condemn them for those beliefs because they believe that actually it’s their vision that is the only correct way to live; to the extreme extent sometimes of becoming violent to prove a belief. What has caused these differences? Are we not all influenced by the same things? Are we not all trying to live a free life on this planet? Why do some people naturally have what it takes to focus on something and make it work yet, others feel like the walls are spinning through a feeling of anxiety, which now creates a sense of confusion and being lost in thought, and even void of purpose?
Human Mechatronics: The Double-Edged Power of Influence, is the first of a two-part series that is meant to open up your mind to become a more free-thinker; at least a thinker who understands the influence they have lived, or live under. This book helps you think, and hopefully appreciate, what and how you got to where you are today. The second book: Human Mechatronics: The Power of Focus, will help guide you to understand how you can further evolve with a more free-thinking mind.

The book is now available from Amazon.com and Amazon.ca ~ Reviews from Amazon.ca:
“Craig Dubecki is an exceptionally talented and gifted writer! I was glued to, So You Just Want To Be A Rockstar, from beginning to end, and was sadly disappointed when the story came to a natural close! The best writers, and essentially the best human beings in my humble opinion are the ones who courageously find and use their voices to be an instrument of change for the overall benefit of the collective. Anyone can write a book or be an author however, it takes a true servant leader and agent of change to understand the power of vulnerability. I have immense respect for Craig Dubecki, and for all his bodies of work! Nakedly putting oneself out there while choosing to be transparent, raw and candid IS what is required to empower others to empower themselves, and to raise the collective consciousness. What a beautiful gift you have graciously and generously bestowed upon all of us, Mr. Dubecki! Thank you for never quitting! Thank you for never giving up! Thank you for role-modelling what is more than possible for each and everyone of us! It is a true honour and privilege to know you! Keep Shining!”
“An interesting story based on a mans life long battles with acceptance and overcoming adversity. The story has some very serious life situations and lessons, but is easy to read and adds a little humour to help it along.”
“A WONDERFUL READ THAT KEEPS YOU CAPTIVATED FROM BEGINNING TO END, WITH LIFE LESSONS WE CAN ALL RELATE AND LEARN FROM”
“Craig Dubecki is a gifted writer, musician and public speaker who has written a highly creative and intoxicating story based on his life, it’s highs & lows and his recovery from low self esteem, alcohol addiction and his allowance to be abused by others. It’s an emotional,authentic and inspiring Love Story for all of us who have at times have lost our way and had to find our way ‘back to the woods’, back to our true self. Using music to guide the chapters, Craig shows us how the decisions we make and the consequences from them intersect to either lead us away or toward who we are and want to be. As Shane recovers his self esteem and his health , His VOICE emerges powerfully and he begins to find his purpose , his passion and he is finally ‘heard’ by those around him. He created a principle for Life..he calls it WYLIWYG…What You Love is What You Get!
Don’t let the size of this book fool you. You won’t put it down once you start”
Sharing: Volume 4
This volume features 16 writers, a group of men from various walks of life, with different and yet very similar stories to tell … stories of pain, struggle, and courage; healing, hope, and vision … whatever has guided each man on his journey to healing and wholeness, on all levels. Craig’s story, The Encore: Getting With The Program, is the second part of his authored and published Trilogy. It uses the song Roll With The Changes by REO Speedwagon to segue from his first book, the musically driven psychological adventure, So, You Just Want To Be A Rock Star, to the non-fictional account of his own life and ask the question, how does one know when they are at rock bottom or not. The solution is one word: Focus and what that actually means and entails as Craig explains in the book.
