From the Author:
This book was a blast to create and all about fun. Where, in the past, on my books, especially, Strength for LIFE, I've taken it all so very serious, and sought total perfection, The Owners MANual to Your 40's is more a conversation with a friend.
My friend, Dean, asked me, "What advice would you give your best freind about turning 40? How might you help him embrace his Full Strength life at 40 and avoid some of the common challenges and stumbling blocks?"
While I of course bring in the physical, the aspect of energy and wellness, this work is much more integral of the whole. It's a guide to awakening, to seeing, to crafting a life that isn't just good today but getting better tomorrow, and every day.
Ultimately, it's a book you can read in a sitting and a series of small and large challenges that can shape the decade of your 40's and the rest of your life. Step into your 40's with energy, passion and fearless optimism for the shining light you will be.
