find your enough
My name is Peter Kos and I'm an author.
The Elements of Lifestyle is a story on living a joyous life by:
- applying intentional life design
- following the path of kaizen — small, incremental improvements
- and finding your enough.
Many popular turnaround stories start with hitting the bottom — addiction, heart attack, a health scare, loss of something.
But The Elements of Lifestyle is a story of taking control without — or before — a complete derailment. It’s a story of personal compound interest, about small things adding up.
Life isn’t made of the significant milestones; it’s made of all the days and weeks in between.
I believe that the secret to experiencing a joyous life is in finding your enough — that middle path between excess and scarcity.
You have to journey through your personal walkabout to pursue your enough. The path might be challenging, but it’s worth it — and it’s going to be fun.
Because one day you wake up and you’re forty, sixty, or whatever, and you look in the mirror, and you have to look yourself in the eyes. And then you’ll gaze in the rearview mirror and wonder. —It is up to you if you’ll wonder of joy or wonder what the fuck happened to me. It all starts today.
I was an overweight corporate roller in my early thirties, who smoked, ate, and partied too much; I was riding towards the heart-attack-land. But then I read Nigel Marsh's book titled Fat, Forty, and Fired – and I decided to change my trajectory. This book is one of my dreams come true: publishing a creative work while turning forty without being fat (or fired).
