Insure the Bag, the book, while its name stems from a brand and marketing persona to help urban communities resonate with the importance of insurance and its benefits, takes a total different meaning in its debut finisher. This body of work strives to provide an idea for the everyday person that focusing on the fundamental parts of yourself and your life is what truly depicts success.
While there are many self-help books geared towards providing a particular proven path to follow, this one identifies differently. While reading this book, the author has hopes for anyone from any walk of life to see themselves in the advice and apply all of the methods to their lives, by understanding that everything mentioned in this book is something that's already bestowed in them now and possibly just requires fine tuning and acceptance to explore all of life's beautiful possibilities.
The nine chapters signify the ending of a new beginning and representation of all of life's ebbs and flows that we all go through. Life actually begins over continuously for each level achieved, and it's almost a requirement to check in with oneself, understand where you are versus where you now strive to be. Our short-term goals are different from the long-term ones; just as goals we may have created 5 or 10 years ago shift as our lives shift 5 and 10 years later.
Beyond an opinionated advice piece, this book's objective is to inspire and continue to inspire as many times as the reader will allow it. To be inspired by yourself, most importantly, excited to grow, age, change, and evolve, to view it all in a positive note. Once we understand the simplicity of life and the difficulties that sometimes follow, we can recognize the pattern of our own resilience and constantly apply these same remedies for each of life's challenges; as well as, be equally as hopeful for the blessing that always comes after a storm!
