Publisher's summary

How to gain the untaught skills needed to succeed in a world that can feel overwhelming and uncertain, without wasting years of unnecessary time, money, or energy–even if you feel unmotivated, unsure, or lost.

These past years have been tough, and teens may have had it the hardest. From social isolation to re-integration, economic uncertainty, the pressures of academic achievement in an increasingly competitive society, and navigating the dangers of the online world, teens must face unique challenges that most adults never experienced in their youth. Unfortunately, these challenges have resulted in 91 percent of Gen Z young adults experiencing symptoms of depression and/or anxiety, making them the generation with the worst mental health on record.

Teens also feel underequipped when it comes to independent living skills–a survey from the First National Bank of Omaha in 2020 revealed that 77 percent of teenagers report feeling unprepared for adulthood, and 79 percent believe that schools should be doing more to teach them life skills.

So what can be done to overcome these skills gaps and barriers?

There is a way that you can gain the ultimate life advantage–an easy and accessible hack to save decades of distress, hassle, confusion, and money down the drain–a way to prioritize living a fulfilled life that makes you happy plus gives you financial security.

In this go-to adulting manual, you will discover 101 life skills to not just survive, but thrive in the post-pandemic world, such as:

• How to tap into what sets your soul on fire without sacrificing financial abundance.
• Science-backed tools to calm rumination, spiraling, and a critical inner voice that can be used anywhere and in 120 seconds or less.
• The secrets to landing any job that isn’t even taught in university-level career courses.
• How to be better protected than 99 percent of the population against overlooked dangers on the road and online.
• How to guarantee wealth accumulation with just $25 of disposable income a week.
• What the one percent know about world-class health and vitality that lasts well into older age–but it must be implemented as early as possible.
• How to avoid the number one mistake that most youth make that costs them their future– simply because they never learned about it.
• Plus 94 more essential skills for thriving in the modern world!

With 101 critical how-to scenarios, plus over 99 real-world examples, graphics, and exercises, you will come out the other side with the confidence to tackle those boring yet essential adulting tasks, and the empowerment to build a life that excites you.

Post covid toolkit

So many good and constructive ideas that you can use that apply to your life. This was timely because I felt like I missed out on a ton during covid since we were so isolated. I felt like this helped me see areas I need to work on and gave me the suggestions I needed to get started. The PDF was a really helpful visual guide to putting the concepts to work.

I would say the book goes above and beyond my expectations and I recommend this to teens that are looking to get their feet on more solid ground after 2020 :)
