To live a rich life, a unique life regardless of our circumstances, we need to reflect to gain self-awareness and empowerment. Who has really decided how and who you should be?

Could it be that you are also partially influenced by cultures? How does all of this affect your daily life: your thoughts, feelings, ambitions, habits, mood, well-being and your relationships today? This book is about taking control of the rest of your life. Living life to the fullest and dying in a unique way is truly an art, and you hold the brush in your hand to complete the masterpiece - yourself.
