The Big Five for Life: Was wirklich zählt im Leben

John Strelecky's short story follows Thomas, who learns that most people spend their time doing things that do not matter to them. Through a series of conversations in a business setting, he is introduced to the idea of the Big Five for Life: the five experiences, achievements or qualities that you want to have in your life. The book is written as a fable, and the reader is asked to consider their own list and what it would mean to organize work and time around it.

People who feel their days are slipping by and who like short, direct books will find a prompt for reflection. The exercise takes more time than the reading, and that is the point.

Practical and clear-cut; an easy read.

Best for readers like The Growth Strategist. Which reader are you?
