Living in Longhand

Have you ever given everything in pursuit of a goal only to find that when you achieved it, after a moment's elation you were left with nothing but emptiness, a lack of direction, no idea "what next?" Have you ever read self-improvement advice and felt that it just doesn't understand what makes you tick? That it limits your ambitions by reducing goals to a series of moments in time? In this book, Dan Holloway explains how to set and pursue Sustainable Life Goals. These provide a framework that understands human lives are stories not unrelated points in time. And that the people living out those stories have many hopes, ambitions, and desires jostling alongside each other every day. This book will show you how to weave each of these strands into an immeasurably rich tapestry. Dan embodies this fully-rounded approach to life. He has been Creative Thinking World Champion 4 times, European Speed Reading Champion 3 times, and World Intelligence Champion. He is an ultramarathon runner and powerlifter; an awardwinning novelist and performance poet; has been an activist and consultant on financial services and mental illness and neurodivergence for 20 years, a researcher on disability and technology, and is the CEO and founder of Rogue Interrobang, only the second spinout company from Oxford University's Humanities Division.
