Synopsis
In truth, all of us were and remain children, always looking forward impatiently to summer vacation.... However, somewhere along the course of our lives, we gave up.
We gave up on our dreams.
I proclaim - live again! Turn your life into a vacation!
Barak Paz-Tal understood that the rat race of long hours of work a day, a week and a month was not really meant for him. The price was too high for him and his family and the pressure exacted a heavy price. Barak understands that "balancing" is the key word to get out of the race. He understands that he must adopt a lifestyle of "100 days off a year."
We will all ultimately understand that in the final analysis life is a template for all of us. "We go to school, study at university, have children, work hard, pay taxes, pay our mortgage, save money and when we are finally sixty-seven we will be able to retire. And ... begin to live until we actually die. Sound familiar?"
To really start living and enjoying vacation days, we must first unload all our excuses of which we have plenty. "I have no money, I do not have time, I cannot breathe, I have commitments that I must meet and I have to work for the family." The absurdity is that the first one who is hurt by too many hours of work is our family, because we are left with no strength and energy to really be there for them.
Today, we do not work at the same place for a very long time and moving around from job to job becomes a necessity. Unemployment rates are steadily rising and many people are not content with themselves and experience crisis and breakdowns.
The book is composed of ten detailed sections where some of the following information is available:
- Why is vacation the first solution that can help in times of crisis
- Why is it important to place ourselves in the center before everyone else
- Information about our list of dreams and wants; how to plan our lives and build a winning program over time
- Imagination as a winning tool
- the importance of smiling a lot; managing time and more.
Barak Paz-Tal is a friend of mentor Robert Shamin and together they created a book that explains the importance of free time along with work, either as self-employed or a salaried employees. In the book Barak exposes himself and describes his successes and failures in the same breath. In 2004, Barak worked as marketing manager for the communications company Partner, a job that was challenging and extremely stressful. His job led to so much frustration that he ventured to create a new path for himself through his hobbies, learning guitar, singing and surfboarding which he compares to surfing life.
Barak travels around the world collecting experiences and gaining insights that he imparts to his readers in his book and on his site. It creates the ability to fulfill his dream of 100 vacation days a year. These days of freedom are spent among other things, to contributing and volunteering to the community, something that gives him great pleasure.
It is clear to Barak that there is no easy way to achieve the happiness of vacations, which by the way he describes as not needing an airplane or a lot of cash. Sometimes all it takes is just going to a nearby park and enjoying a few hours of freedom without the flickering screen in front of you.
Barak points out that what triggered him to write the book was his desire to create a better world for his family, for all plants and animals and for humanity.
His philosophy is, "The more people are freed from the burdens of the money game and will discover that it is a game and nothing more, the more they will be able to prove to everyone that the axiom of economics, that there will always be scarcity, is idle chatter. There is great abundance in our world, and this abundance should not be given to a handful of people but rather to all."

Rilegato. Condition: molto buono. Dust Jacket Condition: molto buono. prima edizione. Riscoprire le origini e la storia delle nostre genti è un dovere istituzionale oltre che culturale. Ogni anno a Bojano si svolge la rappresentazione del "Ver Sacrum" che segnò l'arrivo, nella nostra terra, di emigranti sabini che qui si diedero lingua, religione, cultura e stato di tipo repubblicano. E una manifestazione popolare, voluta e partecipata da tutta la città che fu capitale dello stato dei Sanniti Pentri, insediati nella parte interna dell'odierno Molise. La manifestazione ha, tra le scene di vita di quell'antico popolo, base storica della nostra identità con le revisioni succedutesi nei secoli, il matrimonio speciale riservato alle giovani e ai giovani meritevoli per servizi resi alla società e alla patria. Una consuetudine che incitava i giovani a fare scelte giuste e azioni coerenti prima del matrimonio per meritare il premio e a continuare sulla diritta via per non perdere il premio. Si era nel V secolo a.C. e il modello socio-politico scelto non finì lì, perché venne ripreso, dopo tanti secoli, dalla cultura illuministica francese sia sul piano giuridico che teatrale. Recentemente la Regione ha ripreso, da una bella opera teatrale tratta dalla consuetudine sannitica, le Variazioni di Mozart, alle quali sono seguite nei mesi successivi ricerche che hanno portato alla scoperta di drammi lirici in più versioni rappresentati nei teatri importanti di diverse capitali europee, da Parigi a Bruxelles, a Berlino, a Vienna, a Mosca, a Napoli. Abbiamo ritenuto doveroso completare, con questa pubblicazione l'opera di ricerca che aggiunge una tessera culturale importante al mosaico di uno dei popoli italici che difese fino in fondo la propria indipendenza e la propria forma di organizzazione politica e territoriale fondata sui valori della persona. Un grazie va a quanti si sono impegnati in questa paziente opera di ricerca e alla Biblioteca di Vienna che ha concesso alla Presidenza di questa Regione la stampa dell'opera di Grétry, di cui conserva l'originale.
