A Practical Guide for the Fun Journey to Achievement
In 26.2 Ways to Do It Now, we can see that life is a marathon, not a sprint. And a lot of people who look good at age 18 or 19 eventually hit a "wall" - like a marathoner who begins to struggle at Mile 20 - and then they are not in good condition once they reach their late twenties. To extend the metaphor, in both life and running, your daily course will rarely be perfect or ideal. But you can challenge yourself every day when you step up to the starting line.
Thomas Brooks provides concrete advice for those of any age, delivered thru 26.2 chapters that can each stand on their own, as part of the roadmap to hard-earned triumphs that delight your soul. Available Fall 2020.
