Adam faced several personal challenges in his youth. Living through the Port Arthur Massacre, as a 22 year old, that saw 35 people killed and 23 wounded in a mass shooting event at a remote tourist town in the Australian state of Tasmania, was definitely one of his most life-defining moments. Feeling lucky to have survived that day, and realizing how fleeting life could be, Adam was inspired to live life to the fullest.
Through hard work, a good sense of humour, and a desire to simply live a life worth living, Adam went on to travel and work around the world; having amazing experiences and making great friends along the way. With a love of adventure, a gratitude for nature (especially the ocean) and having a good laugh, Adam is now a successful business executive and a happily married father of two boys, living in beautiful Sydney, Australia.
This is Adams’ first book; after concluding how Stoic ways of thinking really can underpin living a happier life, and after wanting to pass on his personal life lessons to his 2 young sons, in case something ever happened to him and they needed some fatherly guidance in their lives.
Although ''Be Stoic Be Happy'' was primarily written as a simple guide for teenagers and young adults, trying to find their way in the world, it is just as valuable to any mature reader looking for an introduction to Stoicism, or just seeking a way to be happier.
