It happens all the time.\nThe current school system is a sprint to gain the knowledge necessary to pass tests and be ready for the academic challenges in college. There’s little room for reflection, integration, or building relevant self-awareness.\nThrough years of research and work with tens of thousands of students, educators, transitioning veterans, and parents, we've developed a keen perspective- a meaningful life has to be intentionally constructed. It doesn’t work to give answers—you have to ask questions. You have to create the circumstances for people to discover their own answers to life’s most critical questions.\nThere are three pillars to the foundation of a meaningful life: A clear identity A compelling purpose Authentic connection\nWe've identified a series of questions for each pillar that will yield clarity, confidence, and serve as a roadmap to building a meaningful life. Here’s the core premise: if someone can articulate their answers to these series of questions, they will have a strong foundation for constructing a life that's both poised for success and prepared for meaning.\nIn this book, we walk through each one of the thirty critical questions—why they're so essential and how to go about answering them. With vulnerable storytelling, these foundational concepts become accessible and relatable to someone of any age. The second half of the book delves into common sense skills to help guide a young person to find their answers to these critical questions.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B09S68XVXT\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B09S68XVXT.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Schimmel, Scott\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
