The books timeless advice - to make work pay not just in cash, but in experience, satisfaction, and joy - will be embraced by anyone who wants success to come not just from what they do, but from who they are. At once a fictional tale of Komisars encounters with a would-be entrepreneur and a personal account of how Komisar found meaning not in works rewards but in work itself, the book illustrates whats wrong with the mainstream thinking that we should sacrifice our lives to make a living.
