Filled with light-hearted quick hits of inspiration to stir a recent graduate or anyone looking for a jolt of "get out there and live" in their lives.

Sprinkled throughout are spreads presenting service-oriented top ten lists, such as- 10 Places to Travel That Will Change your Life, 10 Spiciest Foods on the Planet, 10 Plants You Can Eat in the Forest, 10 Animals to See in Person before You Die, and more.
