Synopsis "Now for gen z: 52 Nuggets of Wisdom we Want our Grandkids to Know (in English)"
You could call these “nutritional snacks for the soul”...This is not another 200 page “how to unlock the secret power within you” self-help book. In a sense, it’s not a “book” at all. It’s 52 individual, timeless and timely NUGGETS OF WISDOM (NOW) that GEN Z pre-teens, teens and young adults, or anybody, actually, will find useful and valuable today, tomorrow, or next week.Short and easy to digest, each contains one or more important lessons for everyday life. Philosophical lessons like “Never Wrestle With a Pig”. Survival lessons like “Mental Rehearsal”. They are deep if you think about them, but they don’t require much mental effort, or time, to process and take onboard. And they’re easy to remember.These are the kinds of useful lessons a grandparent might convey in everyday conversation with their grandkids. Each contains the essence of a thought or concept that the reader may choose to dive into more deeply, perhaps even go on to read an actual book. But if you don't, you'll likely remember the “Never wrestle with a pig!” rule and use it when it fits. That's useful!The thin paperback fits easily in a backpack, purse or pocket and is formatted to make digital capture and sharing easy (just take a picture of the page). The one-sided print format allows individual nuggets to be removed and stuck up on a wall, mirror, or wherever. Since repetition is the key to retention, this will help the reader actually reflect on and retain the message.That's valuable! Warning: "NOW" may be habit forming... good habits!
