The Cafe on the Edge of the World | John Strelecky | Before the Bestseller 52


My interview with John Strelecky of The Cafe On the Edge of the World was one of top 3 favorite interviews I’ve ever had with an author.

Johns book speaks so much to my own journey of leaving corporate American to find myself and a greater purpose in life.

Johns book isn’t a self help book but a story, much like the alchemist, and shows you the inner workings of a man who’s going through life unconsciously.

Along the way he encounters these 3 questions on the Menu of a cafe he stops at:

The 3 questions are:

Why are you here? 
Do you fear death?
Are you fulfilled?

I like this book for the same reason I like autobiographies, you get to take away the lessons you want. 

Hopefully this interview allows you to do the same.

You can get the book here.
