SUMMARY - The Art Of Non-Conformity: Set Your Own Rules, Live The Life You Want, And Change The World By Chris Guillebeau

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. By reading this summary, inspired by Chris Guillebeau's online manifesto, you will discover how to (re)take control of your life and help others do the same to change the world. You will also discover that : it is possible to triumph over the authorities that restrict us; taking control of your professional life is fundamental; the notions of parsimony and abundance are not irreconcilable; everyone must start preparing his or her legacy to the world without delay. Who has never been asked the question: "If everyone jumped off a bridge, would you do it too?". Adults ask it to children to show them the importance of reflection and free will. Yet, as adults, most people tend to conform to the expectations of others, even if it means putting aside their deepest convictions and aspirations - which, in a sense, amounts to jumping off a bridge. Everyone is responsible for their own life and must set their own rules, and at the same time, help others to take control of their own lives in order to foster the emergence of an alternative philosophy that, one day perhaps, will bring about change in society as a whole.
