This book changed everything for me and set me on the course I still travel today.

I was a sophomore at UCLA, unmoored and drifting around the "what do I do with my life" ocean, when a friend gave me the book. And while the writing was relatively simple, the message was so strong and beautiful that my outlook on life shifted immediately.

Later on, the author read my first published book and had some very kind words. Full circle moment.
