Читать книгу The Most Important Question - Peep Vain - Страница 9

The best metaphor to describe this book is a cozy conversation by a fireplace that lasts for several long evenings. There are three parts in this imaginary conversation of ours. First, there is a model or a logical sequence of ideas, which is laid out chapter by chapter. A roadmap, if you will.

Then, there are a whole lot of questions that I’ll be asking you. I am sure that thinking about them or, even better, answering them yourself in writing will improve your experience with this book greatly. In a way, these questions are the most important part of the book, because they address directly what is most important to you: your life, the quality of your life, the problems that must be solved and wishes and dreams that are waiting to be fulfilled.

I have included several stories and examples from my own life. They’ll help you understand better where I am coming from with my ideas and reasoning. I want you to be able to draw parallels and get a better understanding of yourself through them. Hopefully, through them, what I suggest will make better sense to you so that you can use these ideas in your own life to get results. Of course it isn’t all me me me; I also include stories about the people I’ve had the privilege to meet or work with.

One disclaimer: This book will not try to impress you with complex academic knowledge or heart-wrenching motivational quotes. There are more than enough books that do just that. I want this book to be as simple and understandable as my seminars (and as people say I am, as well). But this book is not meant to be a seminar or a replacement for one. It is a conversation between you and me. A conversation that hopefully prompts you to make at least one positive change in your life, a change that you would have never done otherwise or would have done much later.
