I was a successful banker and entrepreneur until I realized that I lived a false life in a hamster-wheel !. So I quit the rat race and decided to dedicated my time to purpose-driven activities.

My search for meaning and sustainability helped me discover my purpose - reducing material consumption. I created a toy rental service that delights kids and eliminates toys and plastic from ending in landfills.

I'm a passionate traveller, traveling around the world with my family and currently living with my wife and two beloved kids in the magical island of Bali.

During this transformation process I wrote two books:

Purpose - How Little Things Can Create a Meaningful Life

Practicing Death - Make The Most Out of Life

There are millions of reason why you shouldn’t write a book: it takes an enormous amount of time and effort, you never know if it will be successful or even published, you don’t know if you’ll even be able to finish it or like the end-result. There is never the right time to write it, and if you ask 10 people what they think about the book concept before you write it, they’ll probably give you 15 reasons why it’s not going to work.
That said, there is a reason you are writing a book and you should listen to that internal voice and pursue it. My internal voice told me that even if there is only one person who will read my book and decide to adopt a good cause as his Living Purpose and will support it, I’ve achieve my goal to leave a positive footprint on society, so I followed my internal voice and published Purpose, how little things can create a meaningful life.

When you wake up each day, what immediately comes to mind?  Many often will say it is the plans they have for the day ahead.  And having a plan for the day is not a bad approach to have, but in context.  You see, God has already designed His plan for the day ahead and for His will to be realized.  But He invites us all to the adventure and to see Him in the day.  The question for us is, “are we go
