If you have ever wondered whether this life is not all that it's cracked up to be, take heart. This book is designed to tease your curiosity a little further in this regard. Finding a greater sense of purpose and contentment in this life is crucial in being able to look back with infinitely more satisfaction, and far fewer regrets. In hindsight, there is much that our schools and universities did not teach us that would have been good to know. So, the overarching goal of this book is to offer the reader some insights into this 'hidden curriculum' of life - the stuff we have to find out for ourselves from the School of Hard Knocks. As we climb the ladder of life, we may encounter some loose rungs or even one or two missing ones. At times we may even feel that our ladder is leaning up against the wrong wall. Safely navigating our way up life's ladder is both an art and a science. The chapters that follow are written with 'the big decisions' in mind - decisions that, made wisely, can change the trajectory of our lives for the better, forever. If you're looking for a book that cuts to the chase on what matters in this life, this is it. In a no-holds barred, down-to-earth approach, author Stuart Symington lays out his formula for a life worth living. Some of the rungs on Stuart's ladder of life include: Breaking the mould of your upbringing, despite the best efforts and intentions of those who raised you. Disengaging from life on 'autopilot', and switching to 'manual' to take charge of your destiny. Seeking a balance among the six most important areas of your life: health, wealth, family, friends, livelihood and spirituality. Getting to know yourself really well so that you can become your own best friend, and the best version of who you can be. Seeing the bigger picture in life, and tackling - with a sense of urgency and zest - the opportunities that present themselves. Taking a leaf out of the books of those wise souls who made a mega-difference while walking this planet.
