Analog: A Memoir and Field Guide for Living The Good Life Now
Most of us are told the same story: work hard, climb the ladder, save for retirement, and someday you'll finally get to enjoy life.
But what if "someday" never comes?
When entrepreneur Chris Schultz lost his father just as he was about to begin retirement, it changed everything. That loss became his clarion call to stop waiting and live The Good Life now.
Part memoir, part field guide, Analog blends personal stories of entrepreneurship, adventure, and community with practical lessons for anyone ready to step off the hamster wheel and take the wheel of their own life.
This isn't another "10 steps to success" book. Instead, Chris pulls back the curtain on his own journey-startups that soared, ideas that flopped, moments of doubt, bold leaps, and surprising wins. Along the way, he distills the lessons that matter most:
- Agency matters. Freedom comes when you put your hands firmly on the wheel of your life and career.
- Resilience is a practice. Life will throw curveballs-personal loss, disasters, setbacks. Resilience isn't about bouncing back, but about moving forward with courage and creativity.
- First believers change everything. Sometimes all it takes is one person to believe-in you, or in the dream you're chasing-to transform the possible into reality.
- Failures are teachers. Every dead end contains a lesson. Success comes from daring, learning, and daring again.
- Meaning fuels purpose. You don't need to wait for retirement to live with intention. Joy, connection, and impact can be designed into your life today.
Through stories of building businesses, creating communities, and finding joy in the everyday, Schultz invites you to reset your goal: not saving happiness for someday, but creating it now-in work, in family, and in the life you choose to design.
Whether you're an entrepreneur, a creative, or simply someone rethinking what "success" means, Analog offers both hard-won wisdom and an urgent reminder:
You're worth the risk.
The Good Life isn't someday. It starts today.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
