Goodreads asked Brett Atlas:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Brett Atlas Since I was young, I have always been drawn to solving riddles and puzzles. Life is really the ultimate one. My dad always used to dispense wisdom and anecdotes, but when he passed away, I was saddened to discover he had recorded none of it. I thought of my kids, and I was determined to leave them a compendium of the major life lessons I’ve learned through study and experience. As a result, I wrote the book I wish someone else had written for me.
