We all want to create a life of purpose, meaning and significance both in our personal lives and our careers. We want to contribute something to the world and earn the respect of others. The choices we make dictate whether or not we will succeed. The key, however, lies not just in making choices but in making informed choices that reflect our values, our aspirations and who we are as individuals. This is the practical and inspiring message of this book, which shows, step by step, how each of us can improve our capacity to: think critically; live creatively; choose freely; solve problems effectively; communicate effectively; analyze complex issues; develop enlightened values; and think through relationships. The text aims to enable readers to navigate the sea of information towards the ultimate goal of knowledge - and the power to create the life they want.
