Some lessons are too important to leave to chance.



When Tony Self sat down to write to his two sons, he didn't set out to write a book. He set out to write down everything he wished someone had told him — about emotions, friendship, money, health, work, and the quiet discipline of showing up every day, even when life doesn't cooperate.



30 Life Lessons For My Kids is the result: thirty short, personal letters, each one built around a single hard-won truth. Some are funny. Some are painfully honest — including a chapter about learning to live with a chronic illness that changed how this family sees resilience. All of them come from lived experience, not theory.



This isn't a parenting manual, and it isn't self-help in the traditional sense. It's one father's attempt to leave something more lasting than advice: the truth, as he actually lived it, written so his sons — and maybe yours — can return to it long after it was first set down.



Inside, you'll find reflections on:


    • Why your emotions can mislead you, and how to tell the difference

    • The quiet ways the people around you shape who you become

    • Money, work, and what actually matters in the long run

    • Friendship, family, and the relationships worth protecting

    • Facing illness, failure, and the things you can't control




    Honest, unpolished, and written with love — this is a book for anyone who wants to leave their children something real.
