The Guide to Becoming Alive
SKU: 51626
Last August Richard Christiansen sat in the goat shed and started writing a book.
It was the kind of book he NEEDED to read. Richard Christiansen was hungry to learn about how to live a GREAT life — not just a good one. He wanted to hear directly from his heroes about how they found their way to happiness, greatness and joy. And how they found their way out of mediocrity and darkness.
600 pages later, Richard Christiansen has never been more proud of anything he's ever done. Ever.
Measures approx.: 12" L x 8.75" W.

Together they talk about work ethic, sex, love, purpose, food, exercise, technology, politics, design, plants, and dogs. There’s plenty of great images and lots of words to live by. In a world that feels chaotic, this is a roadmap.
