This is the author's story of profound personal change that took place across a period of eight momentous weeks in the autumn of 2016. Peter describes the build-up to this period thus: "In September I knew that I was very much at a crossroads, a decisive point, particularly with my career and activity choices going forward. I could have gone on a holiday, perhaps a cruise around the world, to seek some clarity; yet still return and be no further forward. So it was that I found myself making arrangements with a very good friend to visit her for a day of intensive one-to-one personal and…mehr

This is the author's story of profound personal change that took place across a period of eight momentous weeks in the autumn of 2016. Peter describes the build-up to this period thus: "In September I knew that I was very much at a crossroads, a decisive point, particularly with my career and activity choices going forward. I could have gone on a holiday, perhaps a cruise around the world, to seek some clarity; yet still return and be no further forward. So it was that I found myself making arrangements with a very good friend to visit her for a day of intensive one-to-one personal and business development coaching." Whilst the business activities were addressed with anticipation and enthusiasm, it was the personal elements of their working together that caused Peter to now view his coach, his good friend, more as his Guide in spirit. What happened next unfolds as an Odyssey of personal transformation that he was not quite expecting or was prepared for.

Autorenporträt
Having left school at the age of fourteen, Peter Wright got his first job as a labourer in a chicken hatchery. This was followed by a year of Liberal Studies at Newbattle Abbey College, which he describes as life-changing. A career in youth work followed and he went on to become manager of the Duke of Edinburgh`s Award Unit in the City of Edinburgh Council; a post he held for over twenty years, during which he was awarded MBE. With his mantra of volunteering makes the world go round, Peter has been an exemplar of this throughout his adult life. From this, a diverse range of organisations and programmes, mainly charitable, have been variously founded or developed by him. This has included projects for young people - especially the disadvantaged, in heritage and environmental action. More recently he has been an activist in supporting the provision of education for girls amongst the Maasai People in Kenya. Writing was an accidental outcome of his epic 1,200km walk along the entire Watershed of Scotland when he was in his fifties, and he has been glad to share his experiences with ever-widening audiences. `Clearly, you are having a love affair . . . with the landscapes of Scotland`, was the perceptive comment by one of the editors of his first book, and he is known to be more than happy with this accolade.
