Thank you to everyone who inspired me, this has been a long process. I started dreaming of this a decade ago.
I worked so hard for this.
Here is my book published for free, for all to read.
It’s the smallest book ever published. It was first published in 2019 and was updated in July 2023 with 26% more words, going from 42 to 53.
The title is almost as long as the entire book:
MARTIN’S LIFE ADVICE FOR A LONG, HEALTHY, HAPPY MEANINGFUL LIFE
“Eat well, more fruits and veggies.
Don’t smoke. Drink less.
Move more every day.
Make sleep a priority.
Live a meaningful life through love and work.
Disconnect often from your digital life to connect with real people.
Do not fear change.
Be a learner.
Give often.
Do not forget that forgiveness is freedom.”
These 53 words contain the essence of what I think is needed to live well. Let’s just stop reading books and talking about change, and let’s just go out there to play, cry, move, hug, make love, make friends, dance, enjoy music, eat, sleep, talk, listen, run and whatever makes us smile without hurting anyone in the process.
Thank you.
