Synopsis

In Living Well...Making a Difference, author Andy Andersen makes a bold mark on modern thought. His philosophy is breathtakingly simple and wonderfully awe-inspired. His goal, which stems from his vast experience as a career Navy man, is to coach readers in doing for others before they do for themselves for it is mankind's grace that will positively impact one another's lives and, in turn, our own. In twenty-two succinct and life-changing chapters, with titles such as "Money and Materialism," "What Can I do?," and "Random Acts of Kindness," the author weaves lessons about patriotism, prejudice, forgiveness, and decency with affable humor that will lead to self reflection. These illuminating vignettes can be read as separate pieces of non-fiction and should be considered a naval aviator's checklist for life. A serviceman's call to servant hood, these inspirational missives shoot from the hip and celebrate a life of duty-our service to others; it is what makes the world go round.
