"My passions in life were both my family and my career as a professor and researcher at the University [of Saskatchewan] and I write about both in this book. My approach with both family and students was to 'teach your son and daughter how to fish, and you will help feed them for a lifetime,' This book will serve as a straightforward, clear, practical, realistic and down-to-earth detailed example to the reader and dreamer of how to connect your daily activities to your values and principles to help you achieve your dreams."
