Success Is the Quality of Your Journey

Do you ever receive compliments that leave you feeling insulted? The co-worker who says, "I really admire the kind of work you do. My pride would get in the way." Or the relative who prefaces a remark with "You know I wouldn't say this if I didn't love you." Dr. James's humorous, helpful guide exposes dozens of zaps, barbs, and cutting remarks and shows how to let go of old insults and sidestep new ones.

This is a time when we are hungry to know more. Our stomachs are full, and we wonder if our souls are empty. We yearn for the return of wisdom. If civilization is the “long process of learning to be kind,” then wisdom is the shared memories through the ages that guide us toward that goal. The problem is remembering what we have learned. There is a known path to wisdom and to joy. There is a beginning step; there is no endpoint. You have already started on the way. You only need to be reminded in this fast-moving world of what you know. We need to tap our collective memory. Here are twenty steps, from awakening to transformation, followed by virtually every religious and philosophical tradition, described by great minds and prophets, that have guided the best of our culture for 3000 years. Simple steps, familiar, but as the wisdom journey itself, profound, passionate, and enlightening.
