Every time you are influenced by another person in your life, it shapes and moldes you as a human being. It affects your thoughts, behavior, attitude, well-being, how you act towards your goals, and how you, from that moment on, influence other people you meet on your life journey. To live a rich life, a unique life regardless of our circumstances, we need to reflect to gain self-awareness and empowerment. Who has really decided how and who you should be? Have you created your own life journey? Or could it be that you are more or less influenced by other people you have met in your life; from an early age in your childhood, family and relatives, through school age, in your professional life, from friends, acquaintances, and from your various close relationships? Could it be that you are also partially influenced by cultures? How does all of this affect your daily life: your thoughts, feelings, ambitions, habits, mood, well-being and your relationships today? This book is about taking control of the rest of your life. Living life to the fullest and dying in a unique way is truly an art, and you hold the brush in your hand to complete the masterpiece - yourself. The book provides you with 7 steps to self-leadership: 1. What life have you learned to live? 2. What is your potential? 3. Who do you want with you on the journey? 4. Live, think, and act in the present. 5. The negative veil. 6. The long-term perspective. 7. The final destination. People are like flowers, in the right environment, everyone can flourish.
