The nonfiction companion to the international bestseller The AlchemistIn this collection of inspirational thoughts, more than 150 short passages detail the spiritual and practical elements necessary for the attainment of the Personal Legend—the life-long path to a fulfillment of a dream. This is the theme that Coelho first articulated in The Alchemist and it runs through every novel he had written since. A guide for The Warrior within us—one who accepts failure, one who appreciates the miracle of being alive, and one who doggedly pursues a dream—it consists of Coelho’s characteristically elegant and engaging tips on how to assert control over one’s life while embracing it’s uncertainty, how not to be distracted by deliberate and incidental obstacles, and how to apply one’s own strength and wisdom in solving practical dilemmas.
