This website has been decades in the making, and the current rumblings of discontent within society show the timing for this awareness is perfect.
The real life inspirational articles in this website tell about the misfits, the quiet rebels, the late bloomers, the rule-breakers, the underestimated, and the ones who refused to live a life that may have looked good on paper but felt empty in reality. All these people may a choice to live life on their terms, not by the unwritten rules throughout society.
Many people throughout the world, young and old, from various ethnic backgrounds, are finally questioning the rules society is expected to adhere too, and the expectations that are expected to be met.
The No Rule Book, and No Rules Start-Up ebooks, outline these issues, and the potential you have to change, to realise your dreams and desires. Additionally, this website is the platform I provide for readers to share their inspiring stories.
I started my working life as a public-servant (working for the local government) but I soon realised it was like I was a round block trying to fit into a square hole. I needed to be true to myself, and to do this I needed to change. And change drastically.
So I did.
The stories of some of my life journeys can be found on this website, as well as in the NoRuleBook ebook, which is available for purchase. From travelling to nearly 100 countries, and living in several, to continuously hiking 2190 miles in the USA mountains with no outdoors training, to starting a company in an industry I had absolutely no experience in. Thus I feel I am very qualified to write a book around the topic of non-conformity. Needless to say, I have, and continue to lead, a very non-conformist life that many have called ‘inspiring’ and others have labelled as crazy and foolish. (I take all comments as a compliment). 😎
But No Rule Book isn’t about me. Just the awareness I have had that some people have been inspired by my unconventional and non-conformist lifestyle – thus their feedback and questioning had encouraged me to write NoRuleBook. The content users share in this website has the potential to enable a groundswell of new thinking, resulting in new possibilities. To me, the possibilities of making a positive difference to even one person’s life is truly exciting.
