Navigating through time takes you on an introspective journey to explore the core tenets of philosophy and the nature of being, so that one can look in the mirror and ask the question "who are you really"? What makes up your thoughts, your actions, your character and are you happy. Who do you want to be? Where do you want to go? Although some of us can spend a lifetime exploring, the ultimate answer lies in the heart of the seeker.Wisdom and philosophy are intricately linked because both can occupy your mind with the nature of things and more importantly help you set a course to either find or create your place in this world. Wisdom is the purest form of reasoning laced with reflection.Through wisdom you learn how to dance with all the rhythm and agility one would need in order to avoid life's difficulties. Some of us get lucky and inherit wisdom but for others it has to be developed. In either case wisdom can be both contagious and transformative giving an opportunity to become a better version of ourselves.Faith is another important element when discussing self-discovery, the most common definition I have heard of faith is the evidence of things unseen. Although an important ingredient, faith is not limited to religion, but rather encompasses one's trust, values and touches the very nature of our existence. Faith is the invisible thread that weaves through our lives connecting our dreams, our values and our actions. Faith gives us a chance to connect with the intensity and the resilience of the human spirit.In this book we explore finances through the lens of understanding the connections between our financial decisions and the quality of life that we want. We also navigate into discussions revolving around the impact of lifelong relationships and how important it is to be good to those around us. Each day presents an opportunity to exercise your wisdom, faith master your finances, and tell your story. I am grateful to serve you in this journey to find greater purpose and fulfillment.
