Your Commute to a Happier Life
What if everything causing your anxiety—the comparison, the pressure, the feeling of falling behind—was all based on a lie?
You scroll through social media feeling inadequate. You measure your career against colleagues who seem further ahead. You stress about milestones you "should" have hit by now. You race through days collecting achievements that never feel like enough.
There is no scorecard. No cosmic grading system. No panel of judges evaluating whether you're living correctly. The competition you've been exhausting yourself trying to win doesn't exist. The race you think you're losing was never real.
In There Is No Exam, Eric Salinas uses the driving metaphors we all understand—highways, speed, passengers, routes—to reveal a truth that changes everything: the pressure to prove yourself, the need to measure up, the constant comparison… all of it was programmed into you. And you can unlearn it.
Through 24 chapters, you'll discover:
- Why comparison is relative—and why that changes everything
- How to stop living in countdown mode and start accumulating life
- The only competition that actually matters (hint: it's with yesterday's you)
- Why your influence reaches further than you'll ever see
- How to drive your own route without apologizing for your pace
There Is No Exam permanently shifts how you see yourself, your progress, and your worth. You'll stop feeling behind. You'll recognize the imaginary competitions you've been losing sleep over. You'll see that the constant pressure to prove yourself was never coming from an actual judge—it was programmed into you, and you can unlearn it.
