It's a Meaningful Life : It Just Takes Practice
The one piece of advice from this book I still bring up in conversation is about a person's job. I've probably adapted it quite a bit over the years: On a superficial level, it should be something you like doing. On a deeper level, it should be in the service of something you really believe in.
Sounds really clear and true, right? The older I get, however, the more I realize how a pure ideal like this one gets diluted when I have negotiate with reality.
This book is full of advice, but it's seriously undercut by the author's personal troubles. You see, flush with cash from 90's Microsoft stock and a pliant wife, Bo Lozoff opened up a commune of sorts in North Carolina for recent parolees. He turned out to be a horrible leader of his community however, prone to sleeping with the females and flying into rages. When his poor conduct came to light, he shut down his project.
Because I feel this destroys Lozoff's moral authority, I threw this book into the trash and give it one star here. But I'd still like to keep that one ideal.
