“Life Is in the Transitions” presents a new and innovative perspective on nonlinear life, in which everyone of us must deal with a variety of disruptive elements. One-tenth of the problems become what Feiler calls life, a major change that transforms a person's way of living. The average time for these transitions is 5 years. The result: We all spend half our lives in this state of turmoil. Change is the very nature of life. We are all going through change, at all times, at all ages. According to author Bruce Feiler, the average person goes through 36 incidents in their adult life. New events will occur every 12 to 18 months. We always want things to go the way we want it to, so when it does not, we are frequently shocked.
Bruce Feiler discovered a potent new set of tools for navigating these crucial moments, which is the most exciting development. Based on his phenomenal wealth of insights, he offers specific strategies that each of us can use to reorient and rebuild our lives, better than before. Finally, "Life Is in the Transitions" can provoke serious reflection in everyone, regardless of age, about how to use change to spur personal growth and creativity.
