My Journey: Lessons I’ve Learned Along the Way: The Memoirs of Leonard I. Eckhaus

A look back on the author’s life including what it was like growing up in the 1950’s; historical events he actually witnessed; what success in life really is and how to achieve it; the things that will make you happy; the great successes and perhaps even greater failures he has encountered, and most importantly, the lessons he learned from them. He also takes you through his careers in the computer industry and more currently, in the music field. A book that started out as an ancestry primer for his descendants - a book he would write as a gift to his grandchildren’s children, and beyond, providing them a bit more sense of where they came from than he had, quickly grew to encompass his thoughts, beliefs and advice on such diverse areas as happiness, success, one’s obligations to those close to you and to all of mankind, the legacies we inherit and the legacy we pass on, God and religion, the love and celebration of life, how hard work and persistence pay off in the long run, that everyone is indeed created equal, charity and why it I so important, and the aging process itself as he is experiencing it.
