Life's Junctures & Sustaining Qualities (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

This guidebook's purpose is to emphasize the dynamism inherent in a life path and to identify key qualities that sustain one along a life's journey, despite unanticipated intersections with people and events that affect life course changes. The stimulus for initiating the book project came upon the author unexpectedly. After earning a living for almost 50 years, he decided to embark on the life-changer known as "retirement." Surprisingly, something unanticipated occurred soon after taking the plunge: He found himself preoccupied with the question, "How in the world did I arrive at the place where I've found myself today?"That question launched the author on a self-examination and subsequent research study that resulted in this novel work.The intended takeaway for the readership is twofold: 1) reduction in the angst suffered among young adults overly concerned about specificity in workplace or life track alignment, and 2) insight into sustaining qualities experienced by long-time life path travelers. Too, there is a takeaway for those of us who have been on life's journey for eons. We can retrace our past to ascertain junctures encountered and how we contended with them to arrive at where we find ourselves today, and how derivative qualities can lead to an optimal future state
