Learn How to Free Yourself and Your Life Through the Power of Fastlane Entrepreneurship By all appearances, Jeff and Samantha Trotman are living the American Dream. But behind the white picket fence, they endure an American Nightmare. With little time for each other, a pile of debt, and Ferrari taste on a Ford budget, the ruse of affluence is killing them. Two respectable jobs and a lovely suburban house paint a pretty picture, but behind the ink is a broken marriage rife with meaningless work and dead dreams. And now, with an unplanned pregnancy, they're facing a mid-life crisis twenty years early. With little time and looming bankruptcy, the Trotmans are forced to face the red-pill truth they long denied: They were alive, but they weren't living. Determined to resurrect their life and their marriage, the Trotmans plot a rat-race escape-only to find themselves more thickly in it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Exhausted from 60-hour workweeks and never-ending debt, Mark Reinhardt sought a way to live "off the grid"--Away from the demands of work, bills, and the soul-sucking routines of modern life. He found it -- on a sailboat. The captain currently makes his home aboard a 39-foot sailboat in Key West, anchored out in the water, where there is no landlord, and no rent to pay. In this book, the friendly and knowledgeable sailor shares his tall tales, life-threatening adventures, and nuggets of hard-earned, salty wisdom. He gives a personal and detailed account of what the liveaboard life is really like -- from its challenges (going overboard at 3 a.m. to fix a motor) to its joys (sunsets in the hammock). This book will teach you many wonderful skills, such as how to live off just $5,000 a year while traveling the world, and how to take a shower with just 32 ounces of fresh water. But it also offers a more important lesson: how to find peace."--Page 4 of cover

Each of us, at some point, wakes up to the reality that our time on Earth is limited. But how do we lead our lives with a sense of urgency every day? How do we develop the courage to make choices not based on pressure but on principle?

Esteemed Rabbi Daniel Cohen will help you rise above the distractions to tap into the best version of yourself.

Download or read book Out of the Rat Race written by Eric Duneau and published by . This book was released on 2019-04-29 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Want to be financially secure way before normal retirement age? This book is a Must Read! Out of the Rat Race is the book which gives you the foundations to get financially independent on auto-pilot. Through entertaining stories, Eric leads us to rediscover what money really is, helps us build a bulletproof attitude to overcome adversity, shares a new light on personal finances, and then... we jump! A new world opens up, made of human capital, a view on employment like never seen before, a step by step guide for operating profitably a side property business, and a refreshing take on debt. In this book, debt surprisingly becomes a tool to improve oneself, not a hindrance. Eric also takes us way beyond mere concepts by sharing with us over 20 years of learning, tricks and investments. A first very badly executed deal soon transforms into a succession of better and better investments, all made thanks to sophisticated simulators, and zero down payment. A lot of Rich Dad Poor Dad's Robert Kiyosaki's timeless ideas are floating in the background of these investments, but the originality is how the investment process was systematically built and improved via sophisticated simulators, to the point where the risk is totally controlled. Finally, Eric shares his most important findings during his quest to financial freedom, and helps you ask the right questions for being financially free and becoming a better person. This book tells you all you need to know on your arduous journey to financial freedom in order to pause, reflect, analyse, take action, succeed, deal with failure, learn, and improve beyond all expectations, to finally get financially free, out of the Rat Race, and become the best person you could ever be. This is not "just another" FIRE (Financial Independence Retire early) template book, as you will find very little recipes for saving and being thrifty in there. And it does not promote a lifestyle first approach, such as advocated by Tim Ferris's 4 hour workweek for example. On the contrary, you will find stories and advices relating to money management, personal finance, and personal success, that you can read again in 10 years, and they will not loose any of their value. Out of the Rat Race is the book which gives you the foundations to get financially independent on auto-pilot, and to allow you getting out of the Rat Race, from the financial freedom door first.

Book excerpt: What if Life Wasn't About 50 Years of Wage-Slavery, Paying Bills and then Dying? Tired of sleepwalking through a mediocre life bribed by mindless video-gaming, redemptive weekends, and a scant paycheck from a soul-suffocating job? Welcome to the SCRIPTED club— where membership is neither perceived or consented. The fact is, ever since you’ve been old enough to sit obediently in a classroom, you have been culturally engineered for servitude, unwittingly enslaved into a Machiavellian system where illusionary rules go unchallenged, sanctified traditions go unquestioned, and lifelong dreams go unfulfilled. As a result, your life is hijacked and marginalised into debt, despair, and dependence. Life's death sentence becomes the daily curse of the trivial and mundane. Fun fades. Dreams die. Don't let life's consolation prize become a car and a weekend. Recapture what is yours and make a revolutionary repossession of life-and-liberty through the pursuit of entrepreneurship. A paradigm shift isn't needed—the damn paradigm needs to be thrown-out altogether. The truth is, if you blindly follow conventional wisdom pushed by conventional people living conventional lives, can you expect to be anything but conventional? Rewrite life’s script: ditch the job, give Wall Street the bird, and escape the insanity of trading your life away for a paycheck and an elderly promise called retirement. UNSCRIPT today and start leading life— instead of life leading you.

I figured out what truly matters in life and I live my life by those principles. I almost missed out. I allowed myself to get caught up in life's spin cycle. Too much work, allowing things that ultimately meant nothing to consume my life, being too busy to savor the simple things in life, thinking net worth was the true goal...well, not anymore. As I look around, what amazes me is that everybody wants the same things: We want to be happy, get out of the rat race, enjoy life, have fun, persevere through adversity, maximize joy, take risks, and be proud of who we are, what we have accomplished and the legacy we will leave. I know that because in my 30-year career as a sales executive, entrepreneur, public speaker, and faculty member at top companies and business schools, I have seen it with my own eyes. I have engaged with literally thousands of people of all ages, all over the world. They all want life worth. They want joy and contentment with their lives. They know they need it, they just don't know how to get it. I do. I did it. I am a lucky guy because I figured it out at an age when I could apply it. It wasn't too late. And it is also surprisingly simple, if you know the secrets. The purpose of this book is to share with people of all ages the secrets to achieving a high life worth at any age. Life is too awesome to not be enjoyed every day in every way. It can be done. I know, because I am living it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “What is happiness and how can I find it?” may be one of the most frequently asked questions there is. Perhaps that’s because it is so hard to experience lasting happiness. In The Saints’ Guide to Happiness, Robert Ellsberg suggests that some of the best people to show us are holy men and women throughout history—from St. Augustine to Flannery O’Connor, Thomas Merton to St. Theresa of Avila and Mother Theresa. These people weren’t saints because of the way they died or their visions or wondrous deeds. They were saints because of their extraordinary capacity for goodness and love, which—in the end—makes us happy.

Book excerpt: “As of right now, we are no longer married.” These were the words I heard from my husband when he came to pick me up at the Ottawa International Airport after a week away. He sat me in a corner and said, “I can’t live with you anymore. I took away your house key. I closed our joint accounts. Here is $500 for you to use. You can stay at a friend’s house or a hotel, but you are not coming home. You can see the kids tomorrow.” While this might sound like a scene from a novel or a movie, this actually happened to Jennifer Green on Valentine’s Day in 2015. In less than 5 minutes, she learned that her previous life was over. What followed was an almost two-year journey from betrayal, anger, and despair to peace, inner strength, and a new beginning. While often a painful process, Jennifer now celebrates the growth that allowed her to realize, “I was not falling apart; I was falling in to place.” Filled with honesty and insight, Winning While Losing: The Upside of Heartbreak is a must-read book for anyone going through the searing pain of separation, divorce, or betrayal. In it, Jennifer shares her own experiences through blogs she wrote during her journey, her knowledge as a life coach, and tips and exercises to move past the pain into self-appreciation, mindfulness, and gratitude.
