Publisher's Synopsis
If I could go back in time to when I graduated from high school or college, there is just one graduation gift that I really wish that someone had given to me. It is THIS book!
This is THE book that would have actually prepared me for life after graduation, it is about the real world, and it is filled with the ultimate truths that have taken me half a lifetime to uncover! This book is ideal for everyone. This is the final textbook that every graduate needs to ace the most important test of all, the test of life!
Students live in an artificial and unrealistic world where their success is based on memorizing and regurgitating facts and figures. Students adapt to a classroom world where they are fairly judged against others based on their memory and their ability to follow provided instructions. There usually are no work place politics or bias judgements on one's appearance and background in the classroom. Students only need to face mostly fair and objective tests. In our educational institutions there is little or no mention about how every aspect of one's appearance and background will be unfairly judged by the world that awaits them after graduation.
Students are often told how intelligent they are, but are never actually taught how to think. They solve no real life problems, but they make the Dean's list. They are not taught how to generate a creative or original thought, but get an "A" by summarizing a book created by someone else. Often students are simply told what to think from the bias perspective of their teacher and their educational institution. So when they graduate they actually have no education on how to think independently, or on how to handle their life.
When I graduated everyone told me how smart I was, and they seemed to imply that getting all those "A" grades and degrees completely prepared me for the future. But deep down inside I had so many unanswered questions, I found out the hard way that I was completely uneducated for the rest of my life after graduation!
Here are the unanswered life questions that I struggled with: How do you interview for a job? How do you improve your job performance? How do you deal with human bias and work place politics? How do you move up in your career? How do you start and grow your own business? How do you manage your money? How do you stay fit and healthy? How do you build strong positive relationships? How do you stay fit and healthy? And the ultimate question - How do you get more joy in life?
So now, looking back on it all, I decided to create the book that answers the questions I had when I graduated. This is THE GRADUATION BOOK and THE REST OF YOUR LIFE BOOK! The truths revealed here will entertain you and shock you! But ultimately this is THE higher education textbook that will allow you to achieve more, to have more, and to enjoy more for the rest of your life!
