Lead a life of adventure, meaning and purpose—and earn a good living.<BR> <BR>“Thoughtful, funny, and compulsively readable, this guide shows how ordinary people can build solid livings, with independence and purpose, on their own terms.”—Gretchen Rubin, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Happiness Project<BR> <BR>Still in his early thirties, Chris Guillebeau completed a tour of every country on earth and yet he’s never held a “real job” or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. <BR> <BR>Chris identified 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from a modest investment (in many cases, $100 or less), and focused on the 50 most intriguing case studies. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered aspects of their personal passions that could be monetized, and were able to restructure their lives in ways that gave them greater freedom and fulfillment.<BR> <BR>Here, finally, distilled into one easy-to-use guide, are the most valuable lessons from those who’ve learned how to turn what they do into a gateway to self-fulfillment. It’s all about finding the intersection between your “expertise”—even if you don’t consider it such—and what other people will pay for.  You don’t need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid.<BR> <BR>Not content to talk in generalities, Chris tells you exactly how many dollars his group of unexpected entrepreneurs required to get their projects up and running; what these individuals did in the first weeks and months to generate significant cash; some of the key mistakes they made along the way, and the crucial insights that made the business stick. Among Chris’s key principles: If you’re good at one thing, you’re probably good at something else; never teach a man to fish—sell him the fish instead; and in the battle between planning and action, action wins.<BR> <BR>In ancient times, people who were dissatisfied with their lives dreamed of finding magic lamps, buried treasure, or streets paved with gold. Today, we know that it’s up to us to change our lives. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable book will start you on your way.

Esistono due forme di ansia legate al tempo: la prima è più quotidiana ("Non mi bastano ventiquattr'ore per fare tutto!") e la seconda più "esistenziale" ("La vita mi sta scivolando fra le dita!"). Tutti ne abbiamo probabilmente sperimentata almeno una. In un mondo ossessionato dall'ottenere il massimo da ogni momento, la paura di rimanere indietro può intrappolarci in un ciclo paralizzante. Liste di cose da fare, email senza risposta e obiettivi di vita non raggiunti ci tormentano, lasciandoci sovrastimolati ed esausti. E la soluzione non può limitarsi a life hack e trucchi per aumentare la produttività, perché il vero problema non sta in una reale scarsità di tempo, quanto nelle nostre aspettative irrealistiche e priorità non allineate. Guillebeau condivide i suoi personali strumenti, frutto di anni di ricerche e studio sul tema, per identificare le nostre distorsioni cognitive e svegliarci dalla trance della produttività, reimpostando il nostro rapporto con l'orologio e iniziando a goderci il nostro tempo limitato.
