No day is ever wasted that can be lived consciously and to the full.

2 A.M. The hour of the wolf. You wake up filled with regrets, and haunted by dashed dreams, wondering what went wrong.

For Paul Lipton, a successful lawyer in his sixties, his mind’s howling in the darkness reminded him that time was slipping away. Perhaps partly because both his parents had died when they were young, and because he had already experienced his own severe health crisis, he wanted to be sure to live each day to the fullest. He decided he would start viewing each day afresh and in the now as a do-over, each night dying and each morning being reborn. His philosophy was to say, “I am me today,” and ask, “How do I choose to live in the now?”

His solution to these sleepless nights became an adventure, and an experiment in ageless living.

To silence the howls of the wolf, Lipton took off in the footsteps of his fictional hero, Larry Darrell in W. Somerset Maugham’s novel The Razor’s Edge. His journey took him first to the Himalayas. He then continued his external and internal travels that included crossing the ice fields of Mont Blanc, a shamanic retreat at the Esalen Institute in Big Sur, California, and motorcycle adventures across Florida's Alligator Alley, the Rocky Mountains, and the back roads of North Carolina. In the process, he discovered he was not a prisoner of the past. His changed perspective had given him a new lease on life.

Descrizione prodotto

L'autore

Paul R. Lipton is an attorney, a speaker, a legal consultant, and blogger. For forty years a litigator and a shareholder in the international law firm, Greenberg Traurig, he is currently a co-chair of the Eleventh Circuit Committee on Professionalism in Miami-Dade County, Florida. In 2010, Paul started writing “The Ageless Experiment,” a blog on living outside limitations, with posts on finding the sweet spot in life where as you age you continue to challenge yourself to be all you can be without regard to age or any other definition, and without restrictions, either self-imposed or societally imposed. Paul is a devoted husband, father, and grandfather. A longtime resident of Miami, Florida, he now lives with his wife, Margie, in Boulder, Colorado.

5,0 su 5 stelle Timeless book!
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 30 ottobre 2015

Mindful, stimulating read. Mr. Lipton gives the reader the opportunity to step back from the busy-ness we call life and reclaim our journey. This is not a one time read, although quick and understandable the lessons are too valuable to not be revisited time and time again.
"Although we may think someone will come to save us, in the end, we know it is our choice and our action alone that will decide our destiny."
"If you ever wonder what to do, always consider what the warrior would do, then act with courage."

Paul Lipton’s memoir resonates with us all. In it he presents the everyman character of his former self as the foil to his awakened self that is living consciously (and conscientiously) and taking authorship of life. A jolting reminder to us all that story of our own lives is already in the process of being written and there is no time like now to reflect and direct that story to its penultimate meaning in the final chapters that we have. Engaging and deeply personal, Paul shares his own story as his gift to us. He challenges us all to creative, purposeful living and shares with us five incredible aspects of our personal narrative that we cannot help but to consider profoundly.

Hour of the Wolf by Paul Lipton follows the author's personal quest in search of the secret to the meaning and purpose of life. It was a search for something that I had thought long known and after several journeys, personal insights and retreats Paul Lipton, like many searchers before him, found a similar answer - "Seize the Day". The first time I read this book, I was hoping for some light bulb moment of enlightenment and was puzzled that an obviously intelligent adult would choose a fictional mentor to follow and then go to all the stereotypical places like Buddhist temples in other countries and to remote mountains to find meaning and purpose. I felt let down and somehow cheated that after all his inner searching and actual travel that the answer should be so obvious. At this point I was ready to give the book three stars.
However, every now and then some aspect of the book would come into my mind and get me thinking about his search. So, I re-read the book and took it slower and tried to get some personal meaning from it. I understand that the author had some personal experiences involving the importance of one day over another which had a long lasting influence on him. After recognising the value of each day Lipton identifies 5 factors in life that he feels should never be ignored if we are serious about really living fulfilling and meaningful lives: Health, Family and friends, Learning, Spirituality and Fun. He explains how and why each one of these aspects should be incorporated into a well lived day. While I agree that they are important, Lipton may have missed the point that they are also long term investments requiring commitment and personal input which extend beyond simply making the most of each day. In one part of the book, he says he hears God saying," Remember to enjoy the day. Find the joy in the moment. spend your time wisely." but he often seems to struggle with the simplicity of this and keeps digging away to find greater meaning. He does ask an important question though, about how to live in the real world once you come back from the quietness of a retreat and the luxury of quiet thought.
If you lack Paul Lipton's financial resources or perhaps his tenacity for the personal quest, universal truths on living a purposeful life can also be found in any religious text or any good translation of the Tao Te Ching. If you can't afford the time or money for retreats to find your inner self books by Louise L. Hay or similar writers will help you find your authentic self. William Martin, Taoist writer and scholar in his book "30 days of Tao: Learning to Live at Ease in an Uneasy world." states "If these three things; empathy, interest and enjoyment are allowed to arise and fall in a natural flow, a well-lived day follows without effort or strain. Life lives itself:..". Many other well known writers and philosophers have detailed their findings in the search for meaning. It is the existences of these books and experiences that had me scratching my head at the intensity of Paul Lipton's search - almost as if he expected a different outcome. Paul Lipton has perhaps come from a more personal angle but reached many of the same conclusions. I have given the book 4 stars because it has made me think, research and question the way I value each day. Perhaps the personal quest, so central to Paul Lipton's book (and maybe his life) is the important thing after all.

5,0 su 5 stelle AN INSPIRATIONAL JOURNEY.....A MUST READ!
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 26 giugno 2013

The Hour of the Wolf makes a strong case that "age is just a number." Through Mr. Lipton's descriptions of his journeys in life, we understand how and why he came to accept that age should not determine your style of living or your limits, and he has demonstrated how this can be accomplished. He would like to share the joy he feels when he conquers the challenges he sets, and he demonstrates that you can keep yourself feeling and acting young if you live each moment to its fullest. This book can be an inspiration to readers of all ages. I recommend to all those who would like to enrich their lives and find peace and joy in each day.

...."We make what we want out of our lives"....."holding fast to one's truth". These are fundamental truths, easy to say, yet hard to achieve. The author's reflections on his own life demonstrates that one can never quit trying.....the Hour of the Wolf serves as a guide to help each one of us navigate through our lives. This book belongs on everyone's bookcase to be read again and again.
