"Now that I've opened my eyes, I can never go back to my old way of thinking"

Lifebook has given me a clear direction in where I want my life to go. It also made me be honest about my current life, I often suffer from 'head in the clouds' syndrome, and can be very unrealistic and don't even believe in my own dreams. I believed that my dreams were so unreachable that I never shared them with anyone because deep down I believed I was living in a fantasy world to escape the dull realities of life. 
At 41, my biggest dream was to die, simply because it was easier than living. Moving forward, completing Lifebook, especially the purpose sections, made me fine-tune what I really want from life, and to know that being an author isn't unrealistic, because millions of people have done it already! 
My health and fitness are amazing, as is my life vision. Now that I've opened my eyes, I can never go back to my old way of thinking, without causing myself unnecessary suffering. My score was 106 pre-Lifebook, and 118 afterwards. I'm going to continue working on my Lifebook, this isn't the end.

“Now at the age of 51 I have the body back that I had at 17”

When I did Lifebook in spring 2017 I came across Jon’s picture of his body at the age of 29 and 49. The picture fascinated me and challenged my subconscious to believe that everybody has to look and feel old just because it has been born a certain number of years ago.The picture also inspi...
