Abstract

This book is about creating your story, which starts by answering the following question: What do I choose to do next? Many people struggle in life until they realize that life, on its own, has no inherent meaning. We give our lives meaning by the vision that we set, the choices we make, the obstacles we overcome, and the rewards we reap through our experiences.
