Shannah Kennedy, The Life Plan: Simple Strategies for a Meaningful Life, 2015

J.R.R. Tolkien wrote, 'It is no bad thing to celebrate a simple life'. In the context of thinking about employment, well-being, and living, this quote is helpful because it allows us to think about how better our lives might become if we change our mindsets and habits; once we have got to the essence of something, we can rebuild or resign our lives and habits to establish a greater purpose in life and achieve goals.
