Nathaniel Branden continuously challenged his readers to re-think, re-claim and re-author their lives. In an afterword to The Art of Living Consciously (1997), Branden defined what he felt was the central message of his work:
“Your life is important. Whether you achieve what you want in life matters. Honor and fight for your highest potential. Self-realization-the best that is within you – is the noblest goal of your existence.”
Need more be said? I think not!
