Synopsis

Author Kel Landis has spent 30 years in banking and private equity, and a lifetime as a community leader. An insightful observer of humanity, he’s learned why some people struggle to find success, purpose, and fulfillment, while others seem to have it all.

In The Little Book of Do, Kel reveals that it’s not the achievement of goals that makes life rich and fulfilling, but the journey in pursuit of those goals—it’s the doing part that counts. Moreover, it demonstrates that do is the key driver of success in becoming an action-oriented contributor in your family, workplace, and community. Citing real people in real-life situations, he illustrates a central premise: by doing, we become.

Kel identifies the impediments to a life of doing and offers a practical methodology for deciding which pursuits should be delayed, which should be dismissed, and which should be pursued as if your life depends on it.

Filled with practical advice, The Little Book of Do can help you live a happier, healthier and more satisfying life. In the process, you’ll encourage and influence others to do the same.
