Hi, I’m Andrew Wood, Author, entrepreneur and world traveler. I’ve lead a pretty full life, since I quit school at 15 to live in a small caravan in the woods. Since then I have visited 56 countries, built two multi-million-dollar businesses from scratch (with no outside money) read a book a week since I was 12 years old and published over 40 titles of my own! I’ve owned all the flashy cars, played most of the world’s best golf courses and ran with the bulls in Pamplona.

But I am not here to brag. At this point in my life, I want to write, coach, mentor and give back a little. I’d like to share my passion for personal growth, my business knowledge and experience, to help YOU get the most from your LIFE!

Four of My Close Friends Never
Saw Their 50th Birthday

I was lucky in a strange sort of way in that one of my best friends died when I was in my early 30’s. He was a world-class athlete and only 42 years old. It quickly brought home to me how fickle life can be at an age when few people think of death. Most of us pretty much take our lives and our health for granted until we get ill or someone close to us dies. Since Dave’s death 30 years ago, three more of my good friends; one man and two ladies have also died of various forms of cancer before, they were 50. Randy, Trish and Donna all had a whole lot of life still in them. Only Randy smoked, the rest had a healthy lifestyle and just got a bad draw in the gene pool. There is not much you can do about that except get constant check-ups and try and nip it in the bud.

Even when the prognosis was fatal none of them expected to die. Two were convinced their faith in God would save them, the other that natural healing could do the job. All were making big plans for their future “when they got better,” but the future never came. Donna never got to see Hawaii, although we practically begged her to go, even offering frequent flyer miles and hotels to make it easy. Too many great people die with the life still in them. While there is little we can do with the winds of fate, we can make sure we get more joy, experience and adventure in our lives. As Jon Bon Jovi so eloquently said. “I don’t want to live forever I just want to live while I’m alive!”

What goes into a life well lived?

Obviously, the answers to this important question could vary tremendously. For some it could be a quiet life, in the village in which they were born surrounded by family and friends. To others like me a single country nay even a single continent is not enough to contain my wanderlust. For some it’s the work they do or the causes they champion. There is no right or wrong answer, but many people settle for a full life experience far less than they are capable of attaining. I am not trying to say that my way is a better way what I aim to do is get you thinking about the possibilities again. To ask better questions, take better actions and add more meaning, experience and color to your life!
