This book is not about having someone else design your life. That would be too easy. It also would be too restrictive, controlling, and boring. Instead, this book is about designing your life — by you!
Each of us must exercise our own thoughts and wishes, not someone else's, if we want to design and create our own future.
Who will determine your future? The answer is simple — but only you can decide.
Here's to your journey. Have the time of your life designing your own future!
My future is one I must make myself. — Louis L'Amour, 1908–1988
