Seller: World of Books (was SecondSale), Montgomery, IL, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardback. Condition: Good. The author of the New York Times bestseller How Starbucks Saved My Life perks up America with inspiring lessons on finding true happiness at any age and any stage of life. Michael Gill's lemons-to-lemonade memoir chronicled his transformative years working at Starbucks after losing his high-powered job, his marriage, and his health (he developed a brain tumor). In response to overwhelming requests from readers who wanted to know how they, too, could weather downturns, Michael Gill has distilled his experiences into fifteen meaningful lessons, including: *Leap with Faith: Sometimes it pays to leap without looking and say yes without thinking (Gill accepted the Starbucks job immediately, on a whim). *Let Yourself Be Helped: Pride is even more paralyzing than fear. *Look with Respect at Every Individual You See: Gill was raised to avoid eye contact with those who were different, cloistered in a privileged world. Now he realizes the potential in all who cross his daily path. *Lose Your Watch (and Cell Phone and PDA ): Our obsession with productivity produces madness, not gladness. Offering living proof that extraordinary happiness is found in ordinary moments, How to Save Your Own Life provides empowering words and hope for anyone facing a reversal of fortune. True fortune, Gill discovered, lies not in fate but in discovering the innate capacity we all possess to rescue ourselves. Seller Inventory # 00104769353

Seller: Hamelyn, Madrid, M, Spain
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Condition: As New. : En sus memorias, Michael Gill narra su transformación trabajando en Starbucks después de perder su trabajo de alto nivel, su matrimonio y su salud (desarrolló un tumor cerebral). En respuesta a las abrumadoras solicitudes de lectores que querían saber cómo ellos también podían superar las crisis, ha destilado sus lecciones en quince lecciones significativas, que incluyen: Saltar. Con fe: A veces vale la pena saltar sin mirar y decir sí sin pensar (Gill aceptó el trabajo de Starbucks de inmediato, por capricho). Déjate. Ser ayudado: El orgullo es aún más paralizante que el miedo. Mira. Con respeto a cada individuo que ves: Gill fue criado para evitar el contacto visual con aquellos que eran diferentes, enclaustrado en un mundo privilegiado. Ahora se da cuenta del potencial en todos los que se cruzan en su camino diario. Pierde. Tu reloj (¡y teléfono celular y PDA!): Nuestra obsesión por la productividad produce locura, no alegría. Ofreciendo una prueba viviente de que la felicidad extraordinaria se encuentra en los momentos ordinarios, Cómo salvar tu propia vida proporciona palabras de empoderamiento y esperanza para cualquiera que enfrente una reversión de la fortuna. La verdadera fortuna, descubrió Gill, no reside en el destino, sino en descubrir la capacidad innata que todos poseemos para rescatarnos a nosotros mismos.
