Today’s students are hammered with high expectations for their academic studies. Basic life skills are mostly not taught in classrooms, so graduates are on their own to figure out how to live successfully in the everyday world. Without any guidance, where do you start?

Adulting 101 is a clever, compelling, and relevant manual that will show you how to:

Choose your boss, get a job (or at least not lose one) and deal with co-workers

Buy insurance and understand exactly what you need

Begin saving and investing your money

Buy a car

Set goals, prioritize, and get work done

Write a professional email

Navigate sex, dating, and relationships (but not in that order)

Manage your time effectively

Measure success as God sees it

And much more!

This book will give you everything you need to succeed and to make a real impact. It’s a manual of how to change the world, and be the person you were meant to be.

I love meeting young leaders who are eager to change the world.

It seems that some of the practical things an aspiring adult needs to know, like how to create a personal budget, interview for a job, or even take out a loan to buy a car are left to the “learn as you go” educational model. Josh Burnette and Pete Hardesty are out to change that with this fantastic and insightful new book, Adulting 101. It is a great book and a useful resource for anyone trying to figure out some of the basics of being on their own.

I wish every young person would read this book! Whoever does and takes it to heart will be much more likely to lead a successful life. Warning: Pete and Josh have packed so much great advice and wisdom into this book—you will need to refer to it often to realize the full benefit.

Adulting 101 is a hole-in-one! I wish I had this essential guide for adult life before I started competing on the tour.

Adulting 101 should top the reading list for any graduate, parent, college student, or anyone working with adolescents.

—Brittany Lincicome, LPGA champion, @Brittany1golf


Pete and Josh know high school and college students very well, and they’ve written a book that tackles dozens of topics important to becoming an adult. I’m very impressed and encourage those who are “adulting” to read what these authors have written.
