This book is not a lecture. It’s a hand on your shoulder. It’s for the 18-year-old packing her bags, leaving home with more questions than instructions. It’s for the 25-year-old who feels behind because his life didn’t go the way he planned. It’s for the 40-year-old quietly rebuilding after life knocked them down. And it’s for the 80-year-old who’s seen just about everything and still knows—there’s always more to learn, more to unlearn, and more to give. Whether you’re just stepping into adulthood or looking back on decades of living, this book is for you. Read it slowly. Write in the margins. Argue with it if you need to. But most of all, let it remind you: you are not alone in your becoming. Let’s walk through these 100 lessons together—with honesty, a little humor, and a whole lot of heart. Because you shouldn’t have to figure everything out the hard way.
— Sincerely, Unk
