Don’t live an ordinary life. Pursue your dreams by embarking on a quest.
The Happiness of Pursuit shares case studies of regular people in pursuit of long-term happiness. Whether they’ve walked across continents, founded nationwide charities or – like the author – visited every country in the world by the time they’re thirty-five, these people all have one thing in common: they have intently pursued something extraordinary to enrich their lives. Drawing on their inspirational tales, Chris Guillebeau offers practical advice for:
· Choosing and planning your quest
· Overcoming challenges along the way
· Using the experience to shape the way you live and work
Discover what you are capable of. Make a daily down payment on your dreams. Create the life you’ve always wanted.
