Freebird

We work hard-very hard-but often wonder why.  What's the point? Is all this work accomplishing anything meaningful?

Drawing on his work with thousands of people who work in every field-from CEOs to stay-at-home parents-Rick Shurtz tells the story of Tyler O'Brien, a record setting executive who knows how to win. The further he gets ahead, though, the less corporate non-sense Tyler is willing o tolerate. When a group of high school friends pose a dare, Tyler finds himself in a conversation he certainly didn't expect and unquestionably didn't want, but one that ultimately makes him think.

What do we really want? What will make us happy? What were we made for? In the midst of life's reality-the reality of work-how might we be liberated? How might we be free?
