From the Inside Flap
"The future belongs to those who create excitement and view life as a great adventure. The Way of Adventure is a priceless tool, a practical guidebook about increasing delight and mastery in everyday life."?Daniel Burrus, author of Technotrends
What is adventure? As Jeff Salz shows us in this wise, wonderful, extraordinary book, it is the most vital way of living your life every day. He writes: "The secret of finding deepest aliveness and creativity is to inch toward, not away from, the edge. The edge is where the view is, where all growth takes place, where we come fully alive."
Few people can write about adventure with the authority of Dr. Jeff Salz. Mountaineer, explorer, anthropologist, university professor, business consultant, and motivational speaker, Salz has mapped the Himalayas, scaled Patagonian peaks, spent days buried inside snowdrifts, ridden solo on horseback across the Argentine pampas, and sailed Lake Titicaca, the world?s highest navigable body of water, in a homemade reed boat?among many other adventures. Magic, death, mystery, and exhilaration have been intimate companions. As Jeff Salz recounts his thrilling, often perilous journeys in beautiful prose, he reveals how each provides an essential lesson for living with authenticity and imagination in any circumstance.
The lessons are:
1.Leap before you look
2. Aim higher than Everest
3. Give it all you?ve got
4. Work some magic
5. Keep on your bearing
6. Enjoy the view
Rich with both stirring narrative and practical exercises, The Way of Adventure redefines the word "adventure." Sharing the insights of inventors, his fellow explorers, artists, executives, a former U.S. president, and the wise folk he has met on his travels, Dr. Salz gives you the tools that can transform everything you do. Open this book and embark on your own journey of self-discovery. You will be changed by it forever. Visit the author?s Web site at www.wayofadventure.com
