There has been a notable evolution that has transpired
over the last few decades. It wasn’t that long ago that we saw the greed is
good, those that die with the most toys wins lifestyle and pursuit of material
things as a way of life. Gradually over time there has been a steady transition
in the way we perceive our lives and phrases like “work life balance” have
begun to creep into the lexicon.
The movement has blossomed into cultural shift and in
its wake has developed a lifestyle industry based around those changing
attitudes, that focuses on health, wellness, diet and the choices that we make
for ourselves and our families.
The hard chargers among us may view this as a bunch of
touchy feely mumbo jumbo; the self-help movement come to life in a world that
abounds with connectivity, smart phones and a web presence. One of the movers
and shakers of this new paradigm is Jason Wachob, founder and CEO of the web
outpost, MindBodyGreen.com.
Wacob serves up his first book in the form of Wellth – How I Learned to Build a Life, Not
a Resume. Part memoir and part theory of what a new definition of what a
successful, balanced life might look like. I think Wacob makes the case that
there is no one size fits all, plug and play solution that anyone can tap into
and this process is truly a personal journey.
Wellth
doesn’t
come off and a prescriptive to do list; a treasure map that will lead you to
your ideal life, but rather an overview or guidepost that you can utilize or
not in this journey we call life.
