"A fresh, contrarian take on the big questions of life. Written for people who want more depth, humility, and true wisdom from their self-help books." -Booklife

Bestselling author Scott Berkun offers 26 rules that are direct, powerful, succinct, and meant to be broken - for living a more fulfilling life, and not taking yourself too seriously.

We all live by rules: be kind, work hard, never quit. But is that all there is to a great life? Following rules? We know there must be more.

Berkun asked hundreds of people what rules they live by and discovered that it's breaking and changing our rules that defines us most. We're handed advice our entire lives, by parents, bosses, and motivational posters, and most of it useless when real life stops cooperating. How to Live is built for the skeptics: 26 short rules for your one finite life, written for people who distrust anyone selling easy answers.

The advice is uniquely grounded in a wide range of sources, including personal stories, scientific research, and the wisdom of thinkers, artists, and poets, all woven together into a fun, fast-paced, entertaining read.

Readers will learn how to:

  • Discover their own rules for life
  • Benefit from true wisdom without the platitudes
  • Become more self aware and fulfilled
  • Enjoy life no matter what happens
  • Live on their own terms, not inherited ones

Stop looking for the right rules to follow. Learn to discover your own.
