About the Book

If you've ever had that "there must be more than this to life" feeling but not known exactly what your best life looks like or how to achieve it, This Is It is for you. In his refreshing tour de force, Chris Colbert cuts through the self-help clutter with a buzz saw and delivers a slightly whimsical but completely actionable wallop of the truth about why so many of us humans pretty much waste the lives we are given and what exactly we can do about it. It's a concise and compelling distillation of the observations and insights of the greatest philosophers and psychologists since the ancient times, delivered in a no holds barred and frothy fashion that is guaranteed to make you pause, think and maybe even act in order to get out of the bucket of stuck you're in. In seven short and simple chapters you'll discover how to:  make a commitment to change and actually stick to it  determine the point of your life journey  create an actionable map to guide you on your way  love your true self, fully and unconditionally  find your tribe--the people best equipped to help you  strive for work-life integration to align what you do for a living with who you are  make better choices by choosing courage over fear You won't find any sugar-coating in here; Colbert readily admits that the journey he proposes has both downs and ups. So, get ready to do lots of looking in the mirror and serious soul-searching--but know that the rewards are oh so worth it. It is your only life after all.

About the Author :
Chris Colbert was the Managing Director of the Harvard Innovation Labs, where he worked with Harvard students and alumni on how to turn nascent ideas into viable businesses. Since his dysfunctional childhood growing up as the son of a four-star admiral and being raised by an English nanny and a gaggle of Filipino stewards (yes, you read that right), Chris has spent his life trying to understand humans, including himself. He learned the hard way about how to look the truth in the mirror and then do something about it. Fear was his friend, intimacy was his enemy. From there he went on to run a bunch of companies, fail at a bunch of relationships, and ultimate end up as a born- again everything, running the day to day of the Harvard Innovation Labs and writing his ass off. But that's all drivel. You should read the book.

Review :
"As we all obsess over innovation in our work and our organizations, Chris Colbert reminds us about our most important innovation project: ourselves. In This is It, he writes early on that "the adage 'people don't change' is antiquated crap" - and he then takes us on a journey of self-reflection and a new way of viewing our lives. This book is personal, transformational, and courageous." Diane Hessan, Chairman, C Space "Chris Colbert is spot on in his description of, and roadmap through, the turbulence of life. It is not for the faint of heart, but if you are serious about making this transitional time transformational, I guarantee the wisdom and experience shared in this incredible book will be the companion you didn't know you needed." Mark J. Silverman, Best Selling Author of Only 10s - Using Distraction to Get the Right Things Done and the upcoming Mastering Midlife, How to Thrive When the World Asks the Most of You. "If you're not into honesty and vulnerability - if you don't want to change - this is not the book for you! In a uniquely down-to-earth way, Chris Colbert lovingly challenges you to look in the mirror, take responsibility for your life, and become a fuller version of yourself." Rabbi Marc Baker, President and CEO, Combined Jewish Philanthropies "This really is it. What seeker hasn't collected the next breakthrough personal growth book only to fall flat days or weeks after reading it. Chris points a lens in obvious defiance of that. Beyond aspiration or inspiration, this is the path to actualization." Brett William, Founder, Unfold "I am fired up after reading this book! Chris says it: we have one life. Spend a few hours of yours reading (and underlining and highlighting) this book--and then go make the most of your time on this planet. We need you in peak 'you' condition, and This Is It will tell you exactly how to get there." Kassi Underwood Spiritual Teacher and Author of May Cause Love
