Scott lays out steps toward crafting a well-rounded, well-lived life, noting in a section on Wealth Management that he had to learn that “money is just a tool, not the ultimate goal.” Self-assessment tools and the author’s warm, coach-like approach offer guidance toward determining what, for individual readers, one’s ultimate goal might be. The 50 short sections here share motivational steps and experienced insight as Scott presents "a buffet of vital knowledge.” His guidance ranges from big-picture to granular, with an emphasis on the results that accrue, over a life, from early investment in changes like developing healthy sleeping habits, journaling, and performing exercises to increase memory functions and boost brainpower.
Scott’s fresh COPE formulation (capturing, organizing, producing and evaluating) offers a framework for becoming more productive and fulfilled in life endeavors. It’s a welcoming tool, of a piece with Level Up’s easy-to-follow topical lists, interactive questions, and entertaining illustrations by George Miroshnichenko. Blending the mindful with the practical, Scott focuses not just on practical tips about entering the workforce or planning for retirement but on the fulfillment of the mind, body, heart and soul. The result is an encouraging roadmap to growth and intentional learning.
Takeaway: Thorough, inviting guide to starting out in life for young adults.
