This book explains how to turn your life around from merely getting by in life, to thriving. Despite being well educated and talented, many people think they have missed the boat as they approach middle age or are in middle age. They may believe: opportunities have passed them by, they made choices they now regret, they are stuck doing something they no longer like, they were thrown off track by a crisis, they lacked courage, suffered from economics that they have no control over. This has tainted their sense of prosperity and well being; it has affected their career and relationships and virtually everything that is important to them. Many times it has brought down their health and their happiness and short-changed their ability to thrive despite everything. From Survival to Thrival provides tools to get people back on track as well as a new perspective on success. Through true-life stories and original exercises, this book guides people to discover the changes they want to make, the importance of their attitude, and how they can start small and build fast, covering finances, health, career and relationships. But more importantly, From Survival to Thrival also shows how to enjoy health and happiness NOW - not some promised time in their future. From Survival to Thrival strikes a chord like no other book by defining success so everyone feels it is within his or her grasp. Pulling together knowledge from several areas, this newly coined "Thrival Guide" creates an overall plan that anyone can draw from. From Survival to Thrival not only gives great insights, but also gives original step-by-step exercises for trouncing fears and generating positive habits, that will make definitive changes in anyone's life.
