Synopsis

Oola is a "state of awesomeness.' When your life is balanced and growing, you are living the OolaLife. You were created to live that life--you were designed by God for greatness! Before you were even born, God placed within you a special gift that no one else has and a purpose that no one else can fulfill. It's not easy trying to live up to your true potential when life gets in the way. It's difficult to see the greatness within you when it becomes weighted down by the stress of a life out of balance. Even as a culture we are losing our way: we're forfeiting our health and self-esteem--37 percent of us are clinically obese; we're overcommitting and overspending--personal debt is at record high; we're not feeling the love and failing our relationships--46 percent of our marriages are ending in divorce; we're overworked and underappreciated--50 percent of us wake up each morning to face down a job we hate. On top of all that, we've forgotten how to have fun, our faith is weak, our hope is shaky and our Christian principles are constantly tested. Thankfully, the Bible has a lot to say about these things. The Oola principles incorporate biblical teachings into practical, effective platforms to help you overcome the world and create the awesome life you were meant to have. You'll learn how to avoid the 7 OolaBlockers that prevent you from accomplishing your goals and you'll learn how to apply the 7 OolaAccelerators that propel you forward toward your greatest potential. Plus, you'll learn how to create balance and fulfillment in your life by optimizing the 7 F's of Oola: Fitness, Finance, Family, Field (career), Faith, Friends, and Fun. Be a part of the 'Oola phenomenon' and experience that awesome feeling of living the OolaLife. God has built you for greatness. Why then settle for ordinary when extraordinary is within you? Start living the OolaLife today!

Review:

“Troy and Dave don’t just write about the principles in this book, they live them out. And for years, I’ve had a chance to watch them do it as we crossed paths across the country at events. These guys love life like few people I’ve ever met! If you're looking for practical, fun, life-giving advice, start here.”

“Instead of seeking work-life balance . . . strive for work-life fulfillment. Oola for Christians shares how to achieve true work-life fulfillment, what roadblocks you may face and how to blast through them, as well as ways to accelerate your success. It is entertaining, informative, and will drive you to take action.”

“A must-read for anyone looking for ultimate balance, both natural and spiritual, in all areas of life. Personally, we love that there is a book about not only making Jesus the centrality of your life, but challenging us to prepare our minds, souls, bodies, and finances for what God wants to do in our lives.” (―Aaron and Becky Lucas, Citipointe Church Northern Colorado)

Dave Braun (Salt Lake City, Utah) is a native of Napoleon, North Dakota, and is co-author, with Troy Amdahl, of the international bestselling book Oola: Find Balance in an Unbalanced World. Dave found material success at a young age while under the mentorship of Troy, who taught him how to live the Oola principles of balance.

At rock bottom, he sought out Troy, the OolaGuru, knowing he needed help to get his Oola back. The OolaSeeker vowed that if this worked, he would share Oola with the world.
