This book offers a profound meditation on the often challenging topics essential for living authentically, from the New York Times bestselling author of To Shake the Sleeping Self. Our sense of self is not innate; it is shaped by circumstances, comments from others, and formative fears from childhood, often without our awareness. In the hustle of daily life, we seldom pause to reflect on crucial questions: Who am I? Where do I belong? How much of my identity is rooted in avoiding feelings of inadequacy? These inquiries linger in our minds, influencing our actions more than we realize, even into adulthood. With the same passion and clarity that characterized his debut, the author explores seven vital themes necessary for a thoughtful life: ego, family, work, love, nature, death, and the soul. He examines the experiences that define us, whether exhilarating, like a rafting adventure in the Grand Canyon, or mundane, like our morning reflections in the mirror. Throughout, the author engages readers in a broad discussion about finding fulfillment in our connections and the courage to reveal our true selves. This work serves as a meaningful companion for anyone on the journey toward deeper understanding.
