An internationally bestselling fable about a spiritual journey, littered with powerful life lessons that teach us how to abandon consumerism in order to embrace destiny, live life to the full and discover joy.

- Cultivate self-discipline and act courageously
- Value time as our most important commodity
- Nourish our relationships
- Live fully, one day at a time
Reviews
The book is about finding out what is truly important to your real spiritual self rather than being inundated with material possessions. Michelle Yeoh (Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon)
"A captivating story that teaches as it delights. Paulo Coelho
[Its] principles have been fascinating and there were shared principles from writers such as Robin Sharma and Deepak Chopra. How does all that impact on a game of rugby I cant answer that. All I know is its enough to help me to proceed in a way that makes me happy enough to go out there and be proud of who I am and what I hope I can bring to this team. Jonny Wilkinson
