Deserts require a unique approach contrary to the goal-setting, destination-focused belief system widely promoted in our culture. The Sahara does not have a clear endpoint like Mount Everest's peak that defines the summit. This book exposes the mountain-climbing myth and its goal-setting metaphor as ineffective in the ever-shifting sands that make up the deserts of life. Instead, the book offers Six Rules of Desert Travel that allow us to live fully in times of change, urging us to pay attention to our journey rather than the destination.
