Words of wisdom and advice for personal growth.

Getting one’s life principles in order and then applying them are of prime importance as they form the foundations upon which our lives – both personal and professional – are built. This book is a distillation of the author’s experiences in life and contains nuggets of wisdom which have guided him in his life’s journey as a legal academic, judge and family man.

These open and honest reflections, together with illustrations by the author’s younger daughter, provide fascinating and thought-provoking material to form the basis of potential reflection by readers, and may perhaps be of useful application to their own lives.
