In this book there is a quotation from the actor Morgan Freeman which says: “Learning how to be still, to be really still and let life happen -” that stillness becomes a radiance”.
I read this book in a day. I found myself unpicking and re-examining aspects of my life and behaviour. It was provactive and profound. If I read it and undertook the programme for 101 days, it would almost certainly be profoundly life-changing.
Are you content with your present? Are you content with what you perceive to be your future? If so, do not read this book: no need. If not, undertaking the programme over 101 days would help you clarify, at a level you perhaps have never done before, how you want to live and to be.
The programme requires commitment. Imagine yourself doing a twelve week summer school or training for the London Marathon. In a systematic way you are need to going to devote time and energy to it each day. So, before you start make some decisions about what you may have to -˜cut out' for that period. The programme also requires courage. Almost all if not all of us need a support mechanisms in our lives. Tell your close friends and family that you are undertaking this course. They can offer you encouragement along the way: be your programme buddies.
This book is a tool. It is both a car and a bit of a navigator for the journey. You are the driver, ultimately deciding the nature of the journey through listening to your own inner compass. Each person who undertakes this programme will ï'¬'nd themselves at the end at a destination that is unique and particular to them. The programme can help you to more clearly understand who you are and speciï'¬'cally what makes you happy. In your own particular way, it can help you learn to be really still, let life happen, and enjoy every part of its rollercoaster ride. Ultimately, I think you may ï'¬'nd the journey itself is the destination.
