Don't live an ordinary life. Pursue your dreams with a quest.
The Happiness of Pursuit shares stories of regular people in search of long-term happiness. Whether they've walked across continents, founded nationwide charities or - like the author - visited every country in the world by the time they're thirty-five, these people all have one thing in common: they have intently pursued something extraordinary to enrich their lives. Drawing on their inspirational tales, Chris Guillebeau offers practical advice for:
- Choosing and planning your quest - Overcoming challenges along the way - Using the experience to shape the way you live and work
