LIFEonomics™ is about training your mind and behavior to let go of pointless worries and self-destructive regrets so you can live in the present moment. It is a sensible, practical, clear-headed look at the forces that trap us either in a past that cannot be changed or a future that we cannot predict. Most importantly, it's a guide to escaping the grip of worry and regret through transforming our thoughts, words and actions and taking prudent steps to plan for life's peaks and valleys with a Life Team of wise professionals.

When you awaken to the LIFEonomics™ world, you'll realize that there are only two aspects of life that we can control:

1. How we plan for things.
2. How we respond to what happens.

When you accept that fact, you're free to engage in the four-step LIFEonomics™ process of dealing with and getting past worry and regret:

1. Let It Be—Don't attach value judgments to events, good or bad. Let them simply be what they are, rather than verdicts on your character or something you've done.
2. Learn From It—What's done is done. The only benefit you can get from a tragic or painful event is to learn from it. How can it make you wiser or stronger? When you see them in this way, even life's hardest times can contain blessings.
3. Let It Go—Stop dwelling on pain and grief. Let it go and move on as best you can.
4. Live Now—Release regret and stop worrying about what might happen. The past is past and your worst fears are improbable. The moment is when the sweetest, most precious parts of life happen. Embrace the now.

Using stories, lessons and exercises, LIFEonomics™ author Rob Holdford teaches you how to set yourself and others free from worry and regret and to use sound planning to prepare as best you can for life's curveballs. Because when you've done everything you can to prepare, you can truly live in a series of unforgettable moments.
