The Universe-ity: A Spiritual Education Using the Law of Attraction is a new curriculum on life. This guidebook challenges the widely conceived notion that in order to be successful, we must have a standard education. Having received a formal education, Samuels knows what it's like to conform to society's standards and complete over two decades worth of schooling. But with two bachelors' degrees and a master's degree to his name, the author can't help but wonder if education helps us live a happy, successful life. In "The Universe-ity," Samuels examines whether or not years of formal education actually teach society how to become successful. The author, who has created his own successful business as well as published his own book, explains how you do not have to have years of education to live a prosperous, fulfilling life. "The curriculum I've included in 'The Universe-ity' teaches you about you," says Samuels. "This is a new education system to learn from in order to live a better, more thriving life." Samuels believes the ideas, beliefs and strategies discussed in "The Universe-ity" will appeal to anyone looking for something more out of their life. He hopes that his words will help everyone, from business people wanting to improve their careers to mothers looking to reinvent themselves to high school students confused about what to do after graduation. The Universe-ity is a stunning new concept in education. Class is officially in session.
