Story
Every day, we face a growing epidemic of stress, one that is damaging our physical and emotional health at younger and younger ages. Billionaire CEOs, moms managing households, college students, people of every race, age, and income all make the same confession: "I am so stressed." It is literally killing us. While there is no one single cure, there is a simple practice that dramatically changes how we respond to stress and life's challenges: the Transcendental Meditation technique.

Story
Many famed music producers are known for a particular sound that has its day. Rick Rubin is known for something else: creating a space where artists of all different genres and traditions can home in on who they really are and what they really offer. He has made a practice of helping people transcend their self-imposed expectations in order to reconnect with a state of innocence from which the surprising becomes inevitable. Over the years, he has learned that being an artist isn’t about your specific output, it’s about your relationship to the world.

It's an axiom of business that great companies grow their revenues and profits year after year. Yet quietly, under the radar, a small number of companies have rejected the pressure of endless growth to focus on more satisfying business goals. Goals like being great at what they do, creating a great place to work, providing great customer service, making great contributions to their communities, and finding great ways to lead their lives. In Small Giants, veteran journalist Bo Burlingham takes us deep inside 14 such remarkable companies.

If lately you have felt stuck, felt trapped, and have been questioning if this is all there is, your unrest is not uncommon. Frankly, it's your subconscious self (your soul) raising its hand to get your attention. There is so much more to life than trading a majority of your daylight hours for a paycheck, regardless of the amount. You may be fed up with saying, "Sorry, we can't afford it," to your spouse, or, "Sorry, I can't be on your field trip," to your child, or "Next time..." to your friends. It's high time you live your best life the way you design it.

Critic reviews
"Hal Goldstein has transformed his powerful, popular business school course, “The Successful Entrepreneur” into a must-read book for aspiring entrepreneurs. The reader can’t help but assimilate that inner peace and outer abundance go hand-in-hand, and that anything is possible when starting with the stillness experienced from the daily practice of the Transcendental Meditation technique." (Vicki Alexander Herriot, Dean of Faculty, Chair Department of Management, Maharishi University of Management)

Interesting personal stories from business owners
This book gave me a lot of food for thought about different ways to approach running a business. I will try and apply some of these ideas to my own business.
I always love hearing real people's stories and about how they stumbled into their businesses etc. It is so much better than a lot of business books that only give you examples from the big corporations.
I also liked hearing the real voices of many of the business owners. And the narrator's voice is very soothing and I liked the way it alternated from the actual person to the narrator.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
