A single woman''s journey with her twenty-four points of life, this is the tale of the youngest of four raised by quasi-empty nester parents in the fast-growing suburbs of Chicago. Through several political assassinations, a deadly tornado, and absent siblings by the tender age of ten, Anna quickly grew accustomed to a life of solitude and a developing self-competence.

Leading the way as mentors, Anna''s three older siblings acted as superb role models even if from a distance. Along with guidance from her aging parents, she learned the importance of a robust education, a healthy work ethic, and being kind to others. Sadly, Anna was never able to conceive children but rather found herself traveling across the country and uncoupling from ex-husbands as the fertile years faded.

To stay afloat financially, Anna earned college degrees while working full-time jobs, quenching her thirst for knowledge while cultivating vital skills. She focused on nurturing new and lifelong friendships, building a list of invigorating hobbies, and learning to enjoy her own company, especially as sibling rivalry reared its ugly head. Her twenty-four points of life unmistakably lay the groundwork for solo success for women and men alike.
