It may be our best hope for completing our most important hero's journey to the kind of life that we long for and which brings lasting rewards and satisfaction.

You will learn how to identify what will make you most happy and, most important, how to develop the positive qualities and strengths you need to achieve and sustain it. These include things like mindfulness, resilience, courage, creativity, gratitude, hope, humor, perseverance, spirituality, and wisdom. There are practical suggestions for how you can use and benefit from them every day. The stories in the book include real life hero's such as Abraham Lincoln, Maya Angelou, Nelson Mandela, Mother Teresa, and Mahatma Gandhi and references to fictional heroes in familiar stories like Star Wars, Harry Potter, and the Lord of the Rings.
