Lee Sye

Can you control HOW you think and WHAT you think about? Is it possible you can influence how you react to and feel about events of the past?

If you don’t think so, then don’t waste your time reading this book; it’s not for you.
On the other hand, if you think you can, and you are a person committed to continuing your own development, then read on.

In a world where ’mental health’ problems are clearly on the rise, each of us has a responsibility to play our part. And that is to at least learn to recognise the patterns of thinking that control how we respond to the past, present, the imagined future events of our lives, and take a degree of conscious control over those thinking patterns.

We can all do that. The question is how?

Over the course of his 66 years (at the time of writing this), including 11 years of his life in the world of special operations, George Lee Sye has been exposed to tragedy and traumatic events that have significantly affected others. Molested as a young boy of 9, tormented by a pedophile as a teen, exposed to a run of family suicides that is beyond belief, recovering aircraft crash victims, attending fatalities and critical incidents as a first responder, facing bankruptcy multiple times; he’s somehow been able to turn those events into learnings and character building blocks in a way that has stood him out from the general crowd.

Now, after a lifetime of exposure to many highly theoretical self help books and the unqualified ramblings of so called academic experts, he thought it time to step up and share his story, also the story of others, and his well worn pathway to some semblance of sanity and a life dominated by joy and fulfilment.

Is this the answer everyone who suffers from depression or PTSD needs? Absolutely not.
Would it be useful to understand what’s in here and add this approach to your portfolio of self-help and external-help strategies? Definitely!

Be The Voice is written for those who carry the weight of the past - and are ready to explore how they carry it. Whether you’ve worn a uniform, faced down critical incidents, or simply lived through trauma that changed you... this book was written with you in mind.

This book is especially suited to:

• First Responders - paramedics, police, firefighters, and emergency workers who’ve seen too much and are often expected to just ＂carry on.＂
• Defence and Military Personnel - current or former service members who live with the unseen scars of service.
• Survivors of Childhood or Adult Trauma - including abuse, loss, and neglect.
• Mental Health Professionals looking for a grounded, real-world perspective from someone who’s walked the path their clients are on.
• Anyone who believes in self-responsibility and wants practical tools for improving their internal world.

This is not a book of hollow affirmations or untested theory. It’s for those who value clarity, experience, and actionable methods for taking back control of their minds.

If you’ve ever thought ＂I just want a practical way to feel better and think clearer＂ - this is for you.

Be The Voice is not just a personal story - it’s a roadmap for reclaiming control of your thoughts, emotional state, and personal power when facing the shadows of past trauma.

This isn’t a theory-heavy textbook, nor is it a shallow self-help puff piece. It’s a lived-experience guide that combines raw storytelling, psychological insight, and practical tools you can apply immediately - especially if you’re a first responder, a veteran, or someone who’s lived through deeply challenging experiences.
