As home life and work life become increasingly integrated in contemporary life, success—or failure—in either has an undeniable effect on the other. And while the profound events that began the twenty-first century have intensified the desire to focus on what matters most to us, there is still often a substantial gap between what we say matters most and the way we actually spend our time and money. Our credit card and checking account statements may clearly reflect this. But it is possible to keep both areas moving forward in positive ways.
In this groundbreaking book, A. Roger Merrill and Rebecca Merrill demonstrate how to navigate the critical relationships between time and money, work and family, to create a harmonious, success-enhancing dynamic between each. Life Matters shows us how our actions can translate our most deeply held personal values and goals into daily real-life experience. From confronting life's tough questions to offering practical ways to implement your answers, the authors guide you through the crucial steps toward effective living.

" Enjoyed the conversation between the couple. Enjoyable book with good advice and tips including many stories. Much of it was general and not very groundbreaking, hence the 3 stars. But great principles and foundation for the book. "
