Book excerpt: Using a metaphor based on the story of Columbus and his three ships, this extended parable outlines the three possible directions every person's life may take: the sinking ship, the cruise ship, or the battleship-respectively symbolizing personal survival, unbridled enjoyment, and meaningful influence. Acknowledging that many people choose all three approaches at some point, this meditation focuses on avoiding smaller ambitions and striving for the quality and significance possible within the "battleship."
