Baker Publishing Group Signs Michael Hyatt and Daniel Harkavy
Baker Books, a division of Baker Publishing Group, has signed a contract with Michael Hyatt and Daniel Harkavy for a Spring 2016 book entitled Living Forward: A Proven Plan to Stop Drifting and Get the Life You Want.
“When it comes to life, most of us are spectators,” say Hyatt and Harkavy. “It never occurs to us to plan our lives. As a result, we drift along, often to destinations we never would have consciously chosen. But it doesn’t have to be this way. We can live on purpose, determining in advance the outcomes we want to experience.” In Living Forward, Hyatt and Harkavy provide a proven, life-tested, step-by-step guide to achieving a better life—a life filled with purpose and passion.
“We’re excited to publish this helpful and important book,” states Chad Allen, editorial director for Baker Books. “Michael and Daniel have decades of experience coaching in the areas of personal and professional development, and I’m eager to place this expertise in long form. This book will be a gift to anyone wishing to live more intentionally.”
