Picking up a book

Book on my table - The Balanced Life by Alan Loy McGinnis

Here’s a teaser taken from the back cover -
“Do the demands of life have you running in too many directions, trying to manage multiple priorities, but feeling unfocused and unfulfilled in the relationships that matter most to you?”

In the quest for Balance, this book aims to provide pointers in the direction of Commitment, Discipline, Collaboration and Adaptability.

Upon a quick flip of the book, I am intriqued by a subheader that reads Build up a tolerance for pain and a few pages away Beware the dangers of luxury. These sure got my attention, will have to put time aside to dig into the book.
