| Summary | "How to Face Life" by Stephen S. Wise is a philosophical guide written in the early 20th century. As part of "The Art of Life Series," the book explores the essential principles of living a meaningful and productive life, spanning the stages of youth, maturity, and age. Wise's focus is on charting a course for personal and spiritual preparedness, urging readers to confront life's challenges with a well-defined purpose and a commitment to service. In "How to Face Life," Wise delves deeply into the interplay of youth, maturity, and old age, positing that each stage of life brings unique opportunities and responsibilities. He emphasizes that youth should be a time of preparation and self-discovery, where idealism and ambition craft the foundation for a fulfilling life. In maturity, the importance of service and achievement is highlighted as one’s purpose should pivot from self-interest to the wider community. Eventually, Wise presents old age not as a decline but as an opportunity to reflect, mentor, and contribute to others. Overall, the book champions a life lived with intention, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to ideals that transcend mere personal gain. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
