Staying on Top and Keeping the Sand Out of Your Pants : A Surfer's Guide to the Good Life

Rating:
Summary: Anyone can surf if they are entirely ready.
Review: "Staying on top and Keeping the Sand Out of Your Pants" is an uplifting, enthusiastic self help book that breaks the mold of this genre. The authors and artist mix humor, witty cartoons, inspirational quotes and paradoxical messages stirred briskly with the ocean metaphors of surfing. As a recovering, 12 step type beachbum myself, I found the enthusiasm and writing style to be motivational for me. The concepts of change and embracing uncertainty are woven into the text which inspire the courage to act. Living fully in the present is a message self help gurus embrace everywhere. This book brings that point abundtly and with vigor.
