Stop Settling: Finding Clear Directions for a Regret-Free Life - Hardcover

by Rick Hale (Author)

Purpose. Meaning. Fulfillment. Who wants to live in a way that doesn't make a dent? No one. But how do we find and follow the right direction? Some of us live defensively, trying to avoid big mistakes, but our caution may cause us to miss some wonderful opportunities. Others insist they're spontaneous, seat-of-the-pants people who "go with the flow." They assume good things will somehow just happen for them. And others are meticulous planners who have goals and a schedule for every day, every week, every year, and every decade of their lives. Each of these kinds of people has at least part of the picture, but there's another-a better-way. In this book, Rick Hale identifies sources of inspiration to live a life that really matters, and he provides tools to help people narrow their sights to focus on the priorities that make their lives awesome. He shares his own circuitous journey to fulfillment, success, and rich relationships, and he invites all of us to stop settling for anything less!

Author Biography

In 1996, Rick Hale left behind his dream of making it big in the music business and launched a career in real estate. He has never looked back. As a top-producing agent and then launching and operating Keller Williams Realty offices, he continued to expand his reach and deepen his impact, including leading eight offices as the operating partner. His team of realtors was recently honored as one the top-performing teams in the country. And in a single year, his group of agencies sold approximately 12,000 homes exceeding $3.4 billion in value... while still performing and recording rock music with friends. Rick is involved in organizations to assist at-risk children and adolescents, including Camp Grace, which provides summer camp adventures for disadvantaged kids. His goal for these young people is the same as it is for the agents in his business and all those he trains: to inspire them to dream bigger dreams and reach their full potential.Rick and his wife Pauline have four adult sons: Cory, Alex, Tyler, and Luke.
