    “Book Descriptions: A deeply personal, authentic, and clear-eyed guide to navigating today’s complex world and building a meaningful, successful career and life—no matter where you start out—from the bestselling author and co-founder of Axios and Politico

    Jim VandeHei’s high school guidance counselor laid it out VandeHei wasn’t cut out for college. In 1990, you could find him he proving the counselor’s case emphatically, preferring beer to books and delivering pizzas to mapping out career plans. He attended a two-year school before smuggling himself into the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, where after a year he had racked up a 1.4 GPA and was on the verge of getting the boot.

    Everything changed when he discovered his politics and journalism.

    VandeHei went on to cover the presidency and co-found two of the biggest modern news outlets, Politico and Axios , the media companies that upended and revolutionized journalism. He took notes every step of the way. And in The Good Stuff , his debut as a solo author, VandeHei writes the book he wishes someone had handed him when he was floundering—not a compendium of conventional wisdom but a real-world guide to achieving that other “good stuff,” health, wealth, happiness, all the blessings and exquisite pleasures we loosely group under that oft used but still under-appreciated rubric—success.

    Delivered in his hallmark no-word-wasted style, VandeHei offers essential, no-BS guidance on how to handle everything from finding a calling to building a team to navigating the realities of a changing workplace, showing us that no matter how inauspicious our beginnings, no matter how far down the ladder we begin, no matter what kind of challenges we face, a fulfilling life is within our reach.”
