Gay Hendricks burst into the public consciousness in 2009 when he published “The Big Leap” his New YorK Times bestselling novel. It is in this book where he introduced the concepts of the zone of genius and upper limit problems.

He has since envisioned the former as the spiral of genius. The concepts alongside the tools that make them work are inspired by decades of clinical application. Hendricks explains why people revert back to the mean even when they succeed. His concepts provide a structure for understanding the devoting oneself to the type of work that could result in the achievement of full potential.

Together with Katie his wife, Gay continues to lead workshops across the world and write works about deepening relationships, mind body practices and cultivating potential. It was while he was doing this that he figured out techniques to build what he refers to as conscious luck.

He had begun crystallizing the concept years before but got busy working on other projects until someone came into his life just when he needed it. Together with his wife they would write “Conscious Luck” that would go on to become a mega bestseller.

“The First Rule of Ten” by Gay Hendricks introduces former monk and soon to be former police officer Tenzing Norbu. He is a spiritual warrior occasionally equipped just as much as he is singularly equipped to work as a private eye in Los Angeles. He had been brought up in a Tibetan Monastery where he always thought he would grow up to become a super investigator just like Sherlock Holmes.

As such, when is posted to Los Angeles where he is to be a meditation instructor, he decided to join the Los Angeles Police Department to learn investigations. But just like the Buddha says, the only constant thing in the world is change and decade later things change in a huge way to Tenzing.
He resigns from the LAPD and after three suspicious deaths, two bullet wounds and a beautiful woman he learns that whenever he does not follow his first rule there is sure to be mayhem. The novel is set in the modern day canyons and streets of Los Angeles and makes for a compelling as well as reflective character driven mystery with some deep insights into life.

Gay Hendricks’ “The Second Rule of Ten” sees Tenzing Norbu make a comeback. He is now investigating the death of a Hollywood producer, a very attractive pathologist, the missing sister of an ailing philanthropist that are all making his life difficult.

Things get even worse with the arrival of Chaco Morales, his arch nemesis and cartel king. As Tenzing moves deeper into his investigation the personal become part of the job as his two best friends soon go missing from Dharamshala.

Bill, his former LAPD partner has also been acting distant which is very bizarre. His journey to find the truth sees him walk, drive and ride the dangerous crime ridden Boyle Heights in Los Angeles to the capital of Tibet in Lhasa and then back to the US.

He has to deal with more than one inner enemy and limiting though if he is to overcome let alone identify his fast increasing outer ones. The clues he needs to solve the complex cluster of mysterious events are all over the city but as usual the ultimate answers are deep inside him.

In “The Third Rule of Ten” by Gay Hendricks, Tenzing has become the go-to detective for high profile clients. Things could not be better for the former LAPD police officer and ex Buddhist monk. He also has a healthy bank account, a beautiful girlfriend and a steady stream of clients from his many contacts in Hollywood.

He has a very active lifestyle but it is not all happiness and joy. There is a growing abundance of secrets and the death of his father has left him with professional and personal confusion and sorrow. But even as he has to face much turmoil, he is never going to say no to a case of a missing housekeeper.
The investigation into the disappearance soon has him walking down dangerous paths of human organ trafficking, untraceable prescription drugs and dead bodies. But nothing could shock him as much as the realization that Chaco Morales, the criminal that he had failed to catch, was behind it all.
