The Bank of Life: A Story About the Quest for Health, Love, and Meaning
About this ebook
You never know who—or what—will change your life until it happens! After a brief encounter at the airport in San Francisco, Sophia, a young leadership consultant from Berlin, begins to receive a series of letters from a kind old banker named Leonardo asking her to publish a book that his late wife, Barbara, a medical doctor, had worked on over her lifetime. Intrigued by the couple’s quest around the world, Sophia is soon faced with the fundamental question of how she herself can make smarter deposits into the Big Five accounts at the Bank of Life that the couple have identified, namely our health, our psychology, our work, our relationships, and our finances.
A self-leadership story with a difference, The Bank of Life is a fresh reminder to give the important things in life the attention they deserve, with the scientific principles set out in this innovative book positively impacting people around the world.
“The reader’s view of themselves and the way they invest the most important resource in life—their time—will not be the same.” Spencer Holt, PhD, co-founder & Chief Learning Officer, Global Leader Group; award-winning educator and podcaster, Philadelphia, US
