Live E. P. I. C.: Embracing 7 Everyday Virtues to Increase Happiness and Personal Success

A modern spin on the timeless moral virtues, presenting a blueprint for using ethics to build a happier, healthier, more fulfilling life. Thirty years ago, as a twenty-something engaged to her now-husband Anthony, Kristin found herself navigating that often-fraught relationship of daughter-in-law versus mother-in-law. In this case, Kristin and her future mother-in-law Roseanne were getting along famously, until things took a turn and then suddenly, they weren't. By the time the wedding was over, and Kristin and Anthony were settled in their new life together, she was barely on speaking terms with Roseanne. After puzzling over what to do, Kristin eventually realized that in order for things to truly improve with her mother-in-law, she would need to improve herself. Through Kristin's "Excellence Personified in Character" system, readers will learn to embrace a growth mindset for personal character and cultivate the seven E.P.I.C. virtues: Gratitude, Faith, Honesty, Perseverance, Charity, Wisdom, and Prudence. This book reveals that when we Live E.P.I.C. , we invest in ourselves, we are better equipped to navigate setbacks, and our lives and relationships become happier, richer, and more success-filled.
