NEW YORK - June 17, 2013 - PRLog -- Scientist, entrepreneur, and coach, Ran Zilca announced that Ride of Your Life is available for pre-order on Kickstarter.com. The book chronicles the life-changing insights and experiences of Zilca’s cost-to-coast motorcycle ride where he traveled the country’s back roads and met with Deepak Chopra and other prominent thought leaders and scholars.

In 2010, Ran Zilca self-funded a solo 6,000 mile ride. He set out from the New York suburbs towards California, spending hours in contemplation each day and meeting with eight prominent positive psychologists and personal growth leaders.

Deepak Chopra, one of the experts Zilca met with on his ride, called Zilca’s Ride of Your Life journey, “a metaphor for the self transformational journey we all should strive for in our lives.”

“My experiences and conversations on this journey made me realize that people usually dream about things they can attain, if they could just lift some internal barriers. Sometimes a small change in perspective demolishes those barriers and makes dreams come true. It’s my mission as a scientist, coach and author, to help people make that shift. That’s what this book is really about,” said Zilca.

In addition to Chopra, Zilca met with and interviewed Dr. Phil Zimbardo (Prof. Emeritus, Stanford, best known for the Stanford Prison Experiment), Dr. Sonja Lyubomirsky (UC Riverside), Dr. Barbara Fredrickson (UNC, Chapel Hill), Dr. James Pennebaker (UC Texas, Austin), Coach Caroline Miller (Bethesda, MD), Dr. Byram Karasu (Chief of Psychiatry, Albert Einstein Institute), and Byron Katie (Ojai, CA, best known for her method “The Work”).

Ride of Your Life pre-orders are available as an eBook or paperback. In addition, Zilca is offering dedicated and signed versions to help raise the funds needed for the production of the book. Extra ‘stretch’ funds will be used to create an enhanced eBook brought to life with interview clips and video footage captured from Zilca’s helmet-mounted camera.

The book will include a “Can I Ask” section where some Kickstarter contributors can see their own personal questions (whether on finding inner peace or on Zilca’s ride) answered by Zilca, Deepak Chopra, Sonja Lyubomirsky, Caroline Miller, or Phil Zimbardo.
