Book excerpt: Whether you’re a recently minted graduate seeking advantage in the long game of life or you’re further along in your journey and questioning whether you’re best applying yourself to desired outcomes, my book likely contains your answer. In it I detail a simple self-management discipline structured around six common truths. Adhere to a personalized adaptation of them, and you’ll ultimately enjoy their rich promise of happiness, peace, and a life of consequence far more easily and sooner than me! Indeed, mine is an uplifting story of personal triumph, about how, after a frustrating period of confidence-robbing self-doubt, I regained my footing with this simple self-management hack which—among other things—memorialized precisely what success looked like for me. And now, after benefiting for the better part of my adult life from the self-management process I cobbled together, I’m ready to share its recipe. I’ll open up in greater depth about what motivated my search for and eventual identification of our six simple truths, give my take on what I view as a more-complete form of success, and identify and define each of the truths. Each truth is presented along with a small collection of my formative defining (and reinforcing) experiences, recounted in forty-one short, historically accurate stories. It’s through these stories that I show how my six simple truths crystalized for me so that you might also be moved (and equipped) to mine the lessons of your own formative experiences. From those lessons, and with my coaching, you too will be able to easily craft and realign with your very own custom-tailored truths. I’ll show you how. Imagine! A fulfilling and (mostly) regret-free life in which you confidently pursue all that is unequivocally identified and reaffirmed daily as priority for you—those people, activities, and things you just can’t imagine being without. After all, if “we are,” as Buddha suggests, “what we think,” it’s critical that we be thoughtful and strategic about that with which we fill our minds. As an everyman with a simple secret to share, I wrote my book such that mapping one’s long game (and gaining reassuring clarity for one’s daily choices) would be within easy reach for all. Remaining true then to the resultant affirmations of one’s six simple truths—with intention and application—assures we can all enjoy their rich promise of happiness, peace, and a life of consequence.
