Book excerpt: IS THERE A SECRET TO LIVING AN EXCEPTIONAL LIFE?Yes there is! And it may not be what you think... Marcus Pearce has interviewed more than 200 of the world's most successful men and women. From diet experts to war survivors to everyday Exceptionals and some of humanity's greatest icons. What makes them exceptional? What's their secret? Is an exceptional life in our genes, the air we breathe, the food we eat or the money we make? Does family come first, or is it our work or something else? What are the consequences of settling for average in even just one area of life? The answers to these and many more questions are in Your Exceptional Life. After more than a decade of research, Marcus reveals the timeless recipe. Whether in your 20s or 30s wanting to design your best life, your 40s or 50s wondering if your best years are behind you, or in your senior years and want to age gracefully, Your Exceptional Life unlocks the blueprint to help you make the rest of your life the best of your life. "If you would love to master your life as The Exceptionals have demonstrated and desire longevity, inspiration and an extraordinary fulfilled life, this book is for you." - Dr John Demartini, International bestselling author of The Values Factor.
