I feel that there is not much missing in my life. Things are basically fine. I love London as a place to live, I have a partner who loves me for who I am (she claims...), I have an interesting job, and good friends to share things with.

But I dont think this just happened to me by accident. I believe I shaped my life gradually into what it is today, and took many steps along the way consciously.

And this is what I am writing about in the book. In 10 chapters, or 'rules', I am presenting the methods and tricks I used to make the decisions that worked for me. There is nothing special, or private, about these methods - anybody can use them, and they may work for anybody.
