About the Original Book:

In this part memoir and part self-help guide, Hollis draws from his experiences as a business executive, entrepreneur, husband, and parent to illustrate how the lies we tell ourselves can keep us feeling stuck and rob us of our right to an exceptional life. Hollis opens up about the lies he told himself—that self-development tools are for weak people, work-life balance is achievable if you are determined enough, among others—and reveals how finding and embracing the truth changed his life. People, he explains, get stuck in careers and relationships not because of the circumstances of their lives but because they have decided to live within the boundaries they have created for themselves. Anyone who feels there is more to life but doesn’t know how to reach for it will find this book an insightful guide.
