Build Your Castles in the Air...
A little while ago, I had the privilege of working with gifted author and speaker, Chuck Hansen, on the production of his new book "Build Your Castles in the Air: Thoreau's Inspiring Advice for Success in Business (and Life) in the 21st Century".
You may be wondering how Henry David Thoreau's writing might apply to our hectic modern world, but one glance at Chuck's book and you'll be introduced to a timeless common sense wisdom, presented, thanks to Chuck's inimitable style, in a very accessible and easy to understand manner.
The book is a collection of 120 quotes from Thoreau's masterpiece, Walden, to which Chuck has added an engaging commentary comprised of reflections from his own remarkable personal experiences--in the political arena, in the business world, and during a nine month voyage across the Atlantic Ocean--and quotes from some of history's greatest philosophical figures. The whole is a user-friendly means to achieve clarity, purpose and meaningful success in the workplace (and everywhere else).
Nigel Morris, co-founder of Capital One has written the foreword, and the book has received endorsements for a number of industry, political and educational leaders.
Intrigued? Pick up a copy of Build Your Castles in the Air at Amazon.com and soak in Thoreau's excellent wisdom.
