An Excellent Life

About this book

What would you consider an excellent life? What would that look like? Does the question make you think of anyone specific? Maybe you think of a business or political leader who possesses power, charisma, and influence. Maybe a famous athlete or celebrity comes to mind who has millions of fans and an endless fortune.

When you consider your own life, do you think an excellent life is about having a highly successful career with material possessions, influence, and the admiration of others - or is it more important to be happy and fulfilled?

An Excellent Life encourages us to rethink what we believe about who we are, how true and lasting success is achieved, and what is truly most important in all our lives. This book will help you navigate away from superficial desires that can result in sabotaging your future, and it provides a blueprint for a life that is driven by lasting purpose and intention. It is our hope that it will propel you towards a happy and successful future.
