In his thought-provoking debut book, former Counterintelligence Agent and Threat Management expert Michael Varga invites readers to re-examine how we choose to live our lives. Recognizing the vast amount of discontent and frustration many people feel, Varga uncovers the roots of this despair and posits a better way forward.

Drawing on his own personal journey of transformation, Varga, a current SWAT Officer and Wine Entrepreneur, redefines what it means to be successful. Through entertaining, brutally honest, and often hilarious personal stories, he champions the importance of personal responsibility and advocates taking full ownership of our lives and the decisions we make so we can live by choice and not be limited by chance or circumstance.

Varga proposes a new paradigm for living, the core elements of which are grounded in his firm conviction that one must exert power, live with passion, and embrace danger in order to create a life of prosperity. Varga argues it is only by living powerfully, passionately, and dangerously, that one can achieve the true freedom to pursue their ultimate desires.

If you’re not living the life you want and not getting what you want out of life, this book will challenge you to change your paradigm and change the way you are living!

Live Dangerously. Live Passionately. Be Powerful.
