Black Sheep

English

By (author): Peter Sims

Hundreds of years from now, anthropologists will puzzle: twenty-first century humans lived in some of the wealthiest societies in history, yet only a minority of us, around a third, reported being happy. Why? One big problem is that so many of us feel trapped, playing a part rather than being our true selves; pursuing an expected path to success, which is supposed to bring happiness but that doesnt actually excite us or nurture our souls. 

 Is this you? Perhaps you feel out of your natural element much of the time, undervalued, or left behind. Maybe you long to break free and stop following the herd.

 Lets face it, though. We live in a white-sheep world, and thats where Peter Sims initially found himself, working inside the capital markets of London. As just another suit chasing the next sip of sugar water in the hamster wheel of life, Sims and his colleagues wondered if theres a better life on the other side?

 Turns out, the black sheep were everywhere, doing things differentlystarting with living life. 

 If the thought of freeing your inner child exhilarates you, we invite you to crack open this book. If you yearn to dance to your own music, read on. If the idea of black sheep reinventing the world from the ground up excites you, join Peter as he shares his deeply personal journey and the development of the Black Sheep movement
