Goodfinding
A User's Guide to EQ and Your Brilliant Mind
By William DeFoore

GF book cover 350


You’re born with a brilliant mind, but it doesn’t come with a user’s guide or an on-off switch. Left to its own devices, it can feel like your worst enemy when its survival-based default program keeps you focused on what is wrong with you and your world.

This book is the user’s guide that puts you in charge of how your mind works. With positive psychology and emotional intelligence working for you, you will become the conscious creator you were born to be. If you read only one of the many books on happiness, read this one!

Video Overview of the Goodfinding book


Goodfinding activates your brilliant mind with gratitude, appreciation, and optimism for your past, present, and future, deriving value and opportunity from all of your life experiences.

William G. DeFoore, Ph.D., a mental health counselor for more than fifty years, shares this roadmap to help you achieve your desired outcomes. The premise of the book is that you have a good heart, and when you use your brilliant mind effectively, it will be in direct service to that inner goodness.

Goodfinding will become your manual, guide, and companion as you expand into the best version of the person you choose to be. What you pay attention to grows, and finding the good helps the good find you. It will be at the top of your preferred list of books on happiness.


What Others Are Saying About Goodfinding

Goodfinding offers several lifetimes of wisdom on each and every page. There are so many engaging ideas and tools for readers to live their most present life, in mind, body, and spirit. The entire book is a well-informed and life-giving workbook, and a therapy book for a doctorate level course in Awakened Living!

Carolyn Craft, PsyD. Unity Minister, Pastoral Counselor, Coach, and media executive

Dr. William DeFoore’s book, Goodfinding, is inspirational. It manages to describe important, complex systems in easily understandable terms. The basic principles outlined in Goodfinding are laid out in very practical vignettes that make them immediately accessible to the person ready to put them in practice. Most impressive is Dr. DeFoore’s ability to put into practice, through his easy manner of relating to the reader, the very principles he describes in the text designed to promote self-confidence, self-acceptance, compassion, and optimism.

Larry J. Benoit, Ph.D. Clinical Psychologist

In Goodfinding, Dr. William DeFoore has made available to all of us a path, a way of using our mind and heart to make a positive contribution to life, starting with our own. It’s so clear: If we are likely to find what we are looking for, why not look for what is ‘good’? And when we truly appreciate people and things, we live up to the original meaning of that word: we see the positive value and quality of what is there.

Dr John. J. Scherer, author, leadership development facilitator and online resource

The Goodfinding practice of gratitude, appreciation, and optimism changed my everyday life immediately.  The whole book is a resource of practical self-care I’ll come back to regularly.  

As a professional in the financial planning industry, I find that people seem to worry about their money more than they give, invest, or spend it.  Dr. DeFoore’s chapter on finance empowers readers to take control of their financial story and begin to shape their dreams.

Jonathan Newman, CFP PROFESSIONAL

In this timely and pragmatic book, Goodfinding: A User's Guide to EQ and Your Brilliant Mind, William DeFoore provides an in-depth, essential and effective roadmap that leads us to discover, appreciate and fully realize our innate magnificence as conscious beings of love. This book excels in its deep wisdom shared in a practical and viable way. An invaluable and inspiring handbook for anyone truly seeking to enjoy their journey in life.

Harold W. Becker, Author and Founder of The Love Foundation, Inc.

William DeFoore’s Goodfinding presents a recipe for discovering joy and happiness in your life. And it does so by inviting the reader to directly participate in highly effective, efficacy-based strategies for positive change, presented in a beautifully flowing, profoundly engaging, grounded but succinct, and to-the-point tour of how to find the good in living. How can anyone join Dr. DeFoore on this virtual romp through the land of positivity, of possibilities, of Goodfinding without becoming overcome with the pure exhilaration of being alive? You will enjoy this ride.

Larry C. Stevens, Ph.D., Professor of Psychological Sciences, Northern Arizona University

As a mother and a Nurse Practitioner, it’s my joy and my job to help develop wellness in those around me. Incorporating the practical wisdom within these pages to find what is good, right and working will help readers develop happy healthy relationships with themselves and the world around them. Dr. DeFoore covers the gambit on how to physically, emotionally, and spiritually tap in to ‘The power of the positive’ fostering emotional maturity, confidence, and physical wellness. As we ask ourselves the introspective questions in these pages, we can avoid or overcome suffering, creating overall wellness and improved resilience for a fulfilling life.

Andrea Newman, APRN, CPNP/ACPNP 

Do you have an abiding sense there should be more to your experience of life? In your ‘heart of hearts’ do you know something is missing? This book provides numerous tools to help you unleash the life potential you know is possible. It is the operating manual you should have received long ago. Thanks to Dr DeFoore, it is in your hands now. 

Mark Sanders, D.C.

Goodfinding! What a refreshing idea, especially in the midst of our planet’s turmoil and the constant barrage of negativity coming at us from all sides. Goodfinding invites you to stop creating what you don’t want and choose possibility and positivity instead. Anchored in deep spirituality and practical tactics, Dr. DeFoore offers a clear roadmap to Goodfinding. If you had no other resource to create a vibrant life, this book would be plenty! A work of genius such as this could only come from the kind, generous, and expansive being that is Dr. Bill DeFoore.

Comments From Readers Of Serai

"I've read Serai through twice now and started on a third time. Each time becomes more personally revealing and inspiring. The childlikeness of Serai is trustworthy and vibrant with colorful detail. It touches a lot of soul, real quick!"

Steve Wilemon, an avid reader

"Serai appeared at a point in my life where fear threatened to immobilize me. The courage of the main characters on their journeys to the underworld helped me to navigate my own inner journey, and to welcome back and heal parts of myself I had never known existed."

Margie Mahoney, BS, RDH, Life Coach

“The book Serai is written in such a beautiful, magical way, with warriors and wizards and many wonderful characters. I related to all of them. Best of all it teaches you, without teaching you, how to rescue the child that you were."
