THE IDEA FOR THIS BOOK:
To create a self-help book that uses playful, easy-to-understand analogies
and graphics to explain serious, complicated life theories (from Modern Cognitive

careening life.

And you know as surely
as the Wright brothers,
against all odds, lived
out their passions to
make certain our planet
had flying winged steel

do what you can to
make sure your Dream
Quest flies.

Although life is unpredictable,
it does come with a
100% GUARANTEE.
LIFE’S 100% GUARANTEE:
While on your path heading
toward your Dream Quest,
you will 100% be bombarded
with a series of obstacles that
will make you mutter, “What
the %$#! is going on here?
I need a nap!”
