In Reinventing The Wheel, Renewing the Center, Jeremy Farrell explores the three themes of a successful life built around Balance, Alignment and a strong Center. Farrell explores the different aspects of a holistic life of purpose and success, emphasizing that we need to have a strong Center to our life - that belief, or set of beliefs and values, that must be our foundation in times of trouble, but more powerfully that solid base from which we launch into new challenges. We have to build our lives around and on something bigger than ourselves - beliefs, values, convictions, practices - that can withstand the storms and grow stronger with us. This Center is also what creates our vision of a better world, not just for us but for others, and from that can come a clarity of purpose and direction. New challenges present themselves all of the time, and we work to identify those areas of life and work that we want to improve or change completely, and to see how they align with our central sense of purpose. Recognising that Balance is a vital, dynamic and continual effort for those who would live a life of abundance and success, the writer then applies decades of experience and achievement as a global leader, mentor and coach to help us put dreams into action. Balance applies to our life and lifestyle. It is as much about balancing satisfaction with all aspects of our life - the spokes in our wheel - as it is about balancing how much time and energy we put into achieving our multiple competing goals. Farrell spends the second half of the book working with us to define our goals, to create an action plan, to find someone to walk with us, and to take those vital first steps to a balanced life of purpose, abundance and success.
