What's truly important for leading a life well lived? After being diagnosed with cancer and facing his mortality, prolific author and family-life expert Jim Burns learned what it really means to live a meaningful life from the perspective and practical wisdom only gained from facing death. Now cancer free, those same life-changing lessons continue to guide and enrich Jim's faith, work, and relationships in immeasurable ways.

  • Train your mind in reflexive gratitude to rise above negative circumstances. 

Don't wait any longer. Let these principles guide you into deeper joy, more purpose, and better connection--and start truly living today.
