Amazing, Amazing Life Advice

by Michael McClure

Is your life amazing? If it is, could it be more amazing? Michael McClure’s life certainly wasn’t amazing after being let go from his first job out of college for “performing below company standards” and “exceeding allowable vacation days”. He spent the next three years applying to, and getting rejected by almost every tech company in the Bay Area. None even asked him to interview. Frustrated, Michael abandoned his pursuit of helping a corporation, and began his pursuit of helping people… by writing a self-help book. This is that book. Complete with instructional diagrams, photos, and 100+ original illustrations, Amazing, Amazing Life Advice contains Michael’s expertise on a wide-range of topics, including how to use your phone less, excel at your job, eat healthy, give back to society, live sustainably, and much more!
