This book is our Managing Editor’s favorite ever. Although it’s about living creatively, it has so many lessons for all aspects of life. “We all spend our twenties and thirties trying so hard to be perfect, because we’re so worried about what people will think of us…But you won’t be completely free until you reach your sixties and seventies, when you finally realize this liberating truth – nobody was ever thinking about you , anyhow.”
