Lead an Uncommon Life What is your purpose in life?  This is the question we ask ourselves far too often. In  Lean Forward Into Your Life , author Mary Anne Radmacher invites you to find a new way to live: by leaning forward. When you’re trying to see something better, you lean toward it. When you are listening to someone and can barely hear, you lean in. When the really exciting part of a basketball game comes, you lean forward in your seat. When you’re trying to catch, to see, to listen to the best bits—you  lean forward . Be intentional, always.  This book does not fit in with typical self-help books. There are no quick and easy solutions, fool-proof steps to success, or thirty ways to hop, skip, and jump to a more successful, thinner, efficient, purposeful, happier life. Rather, this book is an invitation. A reflection. A mirror. A set of writing prompts to help you remember the questions you want to ask yourself for personal growth. An intimate portrait of some of the processes that have allowed Mary Anne Radmacher to live life how she chooses. And that can help you to live life how  you  choose too. Live a meaningful life of creative confidence and radical acceptance.  This motivational book goes beyond finding your life goals. With the help of the incredible stories and thoughtful writing prompts in  Lean Forward Into Your Life , you will learn how to: Begin each day as if it were on purposeListen hard, risk love, and play with abandonLive an uncommon life each and every day Readers of personal development books and self-help books for women like  Carry On, Warrior ;  Big Magic ; or titles by Brené Brown, such as  Daring Greatly  and  Rising Strong , will love  Lean Forward Into Your Life .
