A Closer Look at How We Perceive Our World

by Jeff Bollow

Whenever people find out I'm writing a book called Phenomenal, they invariably ask the obvious question:

"What's it about?"

If you've been reading this blog from the start, you'll know that I haven't been very explicit about that just yet. Sure, there's the blurb, or what's written on the pre-sales page, but none of that goes very far into specifics.

So they usually conclude that this is a self-help book. Which it isn't.

Today being my birthday, I figured now's as good a time as any to look at what the core of the book is about.

The Whole World Exists for You and Your Epic Life

by Jeff Bollow

Last night I saw a movie called Adam. It wasn't a particularly amazing film, but it certainly had some beautiful moments.

But every so often I watch a film and a moment really hits me. It makes me see something in myself or my life, and somehow changes my thinking.

In Adam, the moment wasn't intentional on the part of the filmmakers.

It was my moment.

And that's precisely what made it so profound.
