| Summary |
"Jon Levy used to be a nerd. Now, he runs with the bulls in Pamplona, battles Kiefer Sutherland in Jenga, and crashes million-dollar weddings. How did he do it? The E.P.I.C. Model of Adventure, a breakthrough four-step process (Establish, Push Boundaries, Increase, Continue) for building the perfect adventure, from picking the right team, to choosing the right mission, and taking the right risks-- with plenty of stories from his own exploits to show you how it's done. With the mold-breaking brilliance of Timothy Ferriss's The 4-Hour Work Week, and the geeky enthusiasm of a TED Talk, this book is your ticket to the next level. You'll learn plenty, but the first lesson is easy: nothing good happens after 2 AM-- except the most EPIC experiences of our lives"--Amazon.com. |
