The Everlasting Power of Meaning
Writing a book with depth requires dedication. Your legacy becomes something much better than a self-aggrandizing legacy. You embark on a quest of discovery.
You cement your place in the written tradition with something to which endless generations can relate. While accounting for your own thoughts as an individual, you account for topics and themes to share that stretch from antiquity to the future. You orchestrate the time and effort needed to make yourself and others think, reflect, or understand.
Almost anybody can become an author, but the sincerity of the work provides true value. How do you want people to remember your ideas and stories? What can you pass down to civilization?
