Hi Tim, after months in which I got up in the morning with no energy and have no energy and passion in life, I have decided to leave my envied marketing role in a multinational to start a PhD at 27 year old, going down to 25% of my current salary. Your book gave me part of the strength to make this decision, giving me the self confidence that by asking the right questions I can change my life. My next power question would be: how can I do what I like (PhD) and learn as much as doing what I did not like anymore (marketing job). Thanks for your inspiration! I will be in Geneva until Sep, doing a mini-retirement in California for 2 weeks in Aug, and then move to Paris.Any chance we can meet for a quick cha in any of these places?Ciao! Marco
