Life: A Guide - Softcover

Life: A Guide will help you make the most of your life. It shows us that there are pivotal moments in our lives that are, in fact, opportunities. If we can grasp them, they can help us build a great life. Over the past 30 years, clinical psychologist Andrew Fuller has interviewed more than 10,000 people who have shared their experiences of life. Many have had times of joy and passion, as well as times when they felt lost and adrift, unsure of their purpose and anxious about what their future holds. These conversations led Andrew to study how other cultures and traditions view the varying periods of life—and to discover common patterns that reoccur in seven-year stages. Life: A Guide explores these different stages of life, with guidelines on how to make the most out of each phase. By understanding and recognizing what is happening in our lives at particular points in time, we can successfully navigate the pitfalls and build upon the opportunities that arise. This process of learning to live a fulfilling life also helps us develop resilience—and to navigate the direction in which we wish our lives to go. Most importantly, Life: A Guide helps us appreciate that while it is good to be clear about the destination, it is how we understand the journey and what we do with it that makes life truly worthwhile.
