https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCP9Y5CL
The average life expectancy in the world is 72 years. That's 26,280 days or 630,720 hours. Imagine reaching the end of your life and having spent so much time in “autopilot” mode!
Taking away the hours we spend sleeping and working, how much of the remaining time do we dedicate to our hobbies? To our education? To our loved ones? To introspection? How will we know if we are living as we would really like if we do not dedicate even a few seconds a day to discovering our needs and our deepest desires?
Our present is influenced by the decisions we made in the past, and we build our future based on the actions we take here and now. What kind of future can we expect if, instead of spending time on what we want, we use it to satisfy the demands and expectations of others?
It is vital to understand and change our thoughts in order to modify our actions and, thus, improve our quality of life. Through a short fiction, the author demonstrates the shocking result that is obtained when we dedicate, at least, a short time daily to ourselves.

The objective of this book is to address those people who, despite being satisfied with their current situation, they want to improve themselves even more. It promotes the idea of not settling for what is established and motivates them to seek greater achievements. 20 keys are presented to achieve the desired well-being. Although people may agree with all or only some of them. The crucial thing is that each individual identifies those that are useful to him and that he feels comfortable with his choice.
During reading, each individual will be able to find new keys to apply to his life. For this book to be effective, it is necessary to fulfill two essential aspects: having the firm intention of choosing the best and dedicating time to reflection.
Usually, when reading we adopt a passive attitude, we look for a comfortable place and we prepare to enjoy our moment of relaxation. The purpose of this book is for each person to take an active role, create and design their own plan to "choose to be better."
Within a specific section, the initial questions necessary to put these 20 guidelines into practice are described. From these questions, a personalized plan is created that each person will adjust to their lifestyle.
The most important term in the title is 'choose', which involves making a conscious decision using all our intellectual potential to select a specific path or alternative. In the course of an ordinary day, we continually make choices by deciding between various alternatives presented to us.

On the cover we see a man who is feeling well, symbolized by having achieved a goal, and his arm points towards something he is looking for, a goal he aspires to. At the top of the mountain, that same man is seen raising his arm in a gesture of victory for having arrived there, after ascending a ladder with 20 steps.

The 20 keys are: values, be present in the present moment, have projects, culture of effort, optimism, taking responsibility for our thoughts and actions, money management, gratitude, solidarity, excellence, live-love-learn, healthy lifestyle, the power of writing, we can’t control an event, but we can control our response, traveling is much more pleasant than arriving at your destination, focus on what is important, the map is not the territory, doers or dreamers, balancing short and long term objectives, difference between being and having.

In short, this book motivates people to act and explore new experiences in order to improve their present situation.
