Summary of Frank Ostaseski's The Five Invitations

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Don’t wait is a path to fulfillment and an antidote to regret. It encourages us not to waste our lives on meaningless activities. We learn to not hold our opinions, desires, and even our own identities so tightly. #2 Death is the elephant in the room. We try to avoid it, joke about it, or project our worst fears onto it. But we can’t hide from death. It is an inescapable, natural truth woven into the very fabric of existence. #3 The law of impermanence is a fundamental aspect of the universe. It is the same law that causes the microscopic structure of a human cell to change, and the vast universe to expand. It is a characteristic of everything in the universe. #4 Impermanence is not only about loss, but also about change and becoming. It is the Law of Change and Becoming in Buddhism, and it provides balance and harmony.
