In a small diner at a location so remote that it stands in the middle of the middle of nowhere, John-a man in a hurry-is at a literal and figurative crossroads. Intent only on refueling before moving along on his road trip, John finds sustenance of an entirely different kind: in addition to the specials of the day, the menu lists three questions that all diners are encouraged to consider: Why are you here? Do you fear death? Are you fulfilled? With the guidance of three people he meets at the cafe, John embarks on a quest for answers that metaphorically takes him from the executive suites of the advertising world to the surf of Hawaii's coastline. Along the way, he discovers a new way to look at his life and relationships... and just how much you can learn from a green sea turtle. The Why Cafe will get readers young and free and older and entrenched to rethink their personal yardstick for success. Charming, simple, and inspiring, it will change lives.
Following a life changing event when he was thirty-three years old, John was inspired to sit down and tell the story of The Why Café, his first book. He had no previous experience or academic training as a writer.
Within a year after it's release, word of mouth support from readers had spread the book across the globe--inspiring people on every continent, including Antarctica. It went on to become a #1 Best Seller, and translated into twenty-one languages. John has gone on to write other books, including Life Safari and The Big Five for Life. He coauthored the book How to be Rich and Happy.
Through his writings and appearances on television and radio, John's messages have inspired millions of people to live life on their terms. He has been honored alongside Oprah Winfrey, Wayne Dyer, and Deepak Chopra as one of the one hundred most inspirational thought leaders in the field of leadership and personal development. All of this continues to humble and amaze him.
Since 2004, he has been actively involved with helping individuals discover and fulfill their PFE (Purpose for Existing) and Big Five for Life. He also trains coaches around the world to do the same for their clients using the techniques he has created.
When he isn't writing or speaking, John spends extensive time fulfilling another part of his Big Five for Life--traveling the world. In addition to his time in Africa, he has taken additional extended trips to the Amazon Basin, Yucatan Peninsula, South America, SE Asia, Europe and China.
