As I progressed through this book I thought, this really is a little treasure chest. The first half of the book outlines lots of aspects, reasons, suggestions and thinking processes that are relevant and important for living a happy life. There is one chapter entitled, “There is no safety in being safe”. Other chapters deal with change, forgiveness, actions, courage, and faith; but to me the most fascinating parts of the books were the ones that challenge the readers to reflect on their willingness to take risks. The second half of the book consists of lots of quotes, just as one of the subtitles of the book says: “Powerful words by powerful people to change your life.” There are quotes that one can reflect on again and again. Here is a good one by Abraham Lincoln: “And in the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years.” This is worth thinking about and remembering. This is a good book, which I am happy to recommend.
