"This book is incredibly personal, powerful and profound. Karl delivers a meaningful message for all with grace, style and aplomb." Professor Damian Hughes: International speaker, best-selling author and co-host of the award-winning High Performance Podcast. Sometimes, the Universe goes out of its way, to invite the opportunity of not just a second, but a third incarnation of life.You Only Live Thrice is a sometimes comic, but brutally honest account of surviving cardiac arrest at home, embracing the chance for a second life, struggling to get balance in that second life, only to be forced to close a well-established event business, due to Covid-19.You'll be taken on the rollercoaster journey of diagnosis, resuscitation and recovery, to considering parallel Universes, the administration processes of an afterlife, how to survive experimentation by oversized insects, dealing with a parent's death and managing the mixed emotions attached to a business closure.Ultimately, learning to appreciate that not knowing what to do next, can be a wonderful opportunity. Uplifting, frank and irreverent, this isn't a self-help book. But in testing times, it can help to realise that your own perspective on life, is sometimes your greatest Superpower.
Autorenporträt
Karl Perry is just a bang average bloke who grew up in Humberston, a small village near Grimsby in North East Lincolnshire but now finds himself living in a similarly small village, south of Manchester.His educational and early sporting achievements stand out for their lack of being worthy of remark. Something which carried on into early adulthood with his greatest sporting achievement being a second-place go-karting trophy on a stag do.He currently has absolutely no idea how to describe his occupation, except to say, he seems to have a knack for helping smaller businesses grow a bit bigger. Along the way he's set up a promotional marketing agency, a property development company, and an event management agency. Only one of these may be still talked about in the present tense.His playlists rarely leave the 1980s which is reflected in his astonishing dance technique and retention of musical trivia related to the 82-86 era. He doesn't have a dog, which is mentioned for no other reason than he'd really like one, but as compensation, he does feed his neighbour's cat. (In addition to them.)He is married to Karina, who, when both were students, was attracted to his unique interpretation of céili dancing one St Patricks night, and who has now saved his life, twice. He promises that, should the opportunity ever arise, he is committed to returning the favour. They have two sons who are legally old enough to have their own families by now but still require feeding, sometimes hourly, so would appreciate it greatly if you purchased this book. Regularly.
