Summary

Within the this extraordinary audiobook, you will discover a practical yet powerful process to re-create your life and reconnect with your best self.

'Release any concerns that you have about this path you’re about to walk on, and just go into it with the curiosity of a child, knowing that you’ll come out on the other side as a new person, or, to be more accurate, far more of the person who you truly are and have been created to be.'

Jack Valentine seemed to have it all. He made good money as an ad man and looked good doing it. He had a hot apartment, cool friends, even a slick car - at least until the hectic Monday morning a truck smashed into it, sending the critically injured Jack to the hospital.

Everything happens for a reason, though, and Jack’s reason reveals itself in the silver-haired cancer patient who becomes his roommate one evening. The elderly man, Cal, shares his life story - one not dissimilar to Jack’s - of material wealth masking a gaping hole within. Cal ultimately found salvation through philosophy ('the love of wisdom') and now offers to help Jack by prepping the younger man for the Final Questions we all must face: Have I lived wisely? Have I loved well? Have I served greatly?

Presenting Jack with three plane tickets, each accompanied by a map marked with a red X, Cal sends Jack to meet with three great teachers, each of whom will help Jack answer one of the Final Questions - just as they once helped Cal. First, in Rome, Jack will meet 'the Saint'. Then a haunted beach in Hawaii introduces him to 'the Surfer'. And finally the grandeur of New York City sets the stage for his last encounter: with 'the CEO'.

Along the way, Jack will learn to do his interior work, discover that our negative traits offer gateways to higher versions of ourselves and understand that figuring things out in your head can distract you from the powerful whispers of your heart. Join Jack on his journey and step into the you that you were always meant to be.

follow your heart

bit cheesy in parts but the overall messages are well worth it. maybe it's just me and the way the world has made me more skeptical. have definately learnt some stuff here and laughed along the way. well worth a read if you can get past the cheese

Does not sound genuine

The story is fictional..does not sound genuine....sad....that the author could not include personal real life stories but had to resort to fiction...

Bad

Worst kind of masturbatory self help nonsense. I listened to this at double speed and still feel like I was robbed of my precious time. Don't waste money on this kind of crap.

Seek actual professional help if you're struggling with your mental health.

Voice performance was annoying but the source material certainly didn't help.
