About this title

Synopsis

This book is an exciting and unique concept that integrates a cookbook with a recipe for life. It is based on the idea that life is a lot like cooking. You get to select your ingredients, mix them together, and create your own dish. Your life is a dish that only you can create and whether or not it turns out the way you planned you are responsible for the results. Living a great life is like creating a great dish. You have to choose the right ingredients and bring them together with a thoughtful and well-executed plan of action – a recipe! Interestingly enough, most people can instantly tell you what their favorite food is, but very few can tell you without hesitation what success really means to them. This is surprising considering the fact that your life is the most important recipe you will ever create. So how do you create your recipe for success? There are plenty of great self-help and success programs out there, but too often they tell you how to be successful without asking the most important question of all – “What does success really mean to you in your life?” The purpose of this book is to help you answer this question and encourage you to create your own recipe for success. The book also includes over 100 recipes with simple step by step instructions. Bon Appétit!
