If Not Now, When?

Making the Most of Your Life, Your Relationships and Your Work

Ronald P. Culberson

The simple question about becoming a better person is If Not Now, When?

In his previous book, Do it Well. Make it Fun, author Ron Culberson introduced us to the idea that excellence coupled with fun and humor can help us achieve both success and contentment in all areas of life and work. Culberson draws on his experience as a hospice social worker and his expertise in the benefits of humor and laughter to further this work in his new book, a collection of blog posts, articles, and essays.

In If Not Now, When? Making the Most of Your Life, Your Relationships, and Your Work, Ron offers surprising wisdom into these three areas of life, couched in entertaining anecdotes and self-effacing humor.

Ron tackles every aspect of life, from how to make your job more enjoyable to some of our most difficult challenges, like parenting, aging, and death. Readers will learn how to be present in the moment, embrace a commitment to empathy, and truly notice the world around them in ways that they may never have. And all along the way, they will enjoy the journey through the author’s amusing perspective.

With a master’s degree in social work, Ron spent the first part of his career working in a large hospice organization as a clinical social worker, middle manager, and senior leader. As a speaker, humorist, author, and expert on the benefits of humor and laughter, his mission is to change the workplace culture so that organizations are more productive and staff are more content. He was the 2012–2013 president of the National Speakers Association and, in 2014, was inducted into that organization’s Hall of Fame.
