Recenzii
"For everyone--whether you are in developing and developed countries--radical change and hypercompetition are accelerating, bringing greater stress into everyoneΣs lives. People are burning out with exhaustion and future shock. "Creative Living" provides the only known antidote: the development of inner peace and a sense of self that keep people grounded as the world swirls around them. Read it and get centered so change and hypercompetition donΣt overwhelm you."
--Richard dΣAveni, Professor at Tuck school, Dartmouth College, best-selling author.
"For a long time I have known empirically that the best way to stimulate my scientific explorations was to explicitly carve out time for what are most often called creative activities--in my case it was building furniture. What I did not know was the how and why this nurtured and stimulated my brain. From just reading the book proposal and outline it is clear to me that I will learn much from the authorΣs precise and organized explanation of why I benefited so much from what many could have called a non-productive and distracting time sink. I indeed look forward to learning what, from a male point of view, can be described as a synergistic interaction between brain and soul."
--DR. DAVID PENSAK, Scientific Innovator, Creator of the first Internet firewall, global speaker, teaches at University of Princeton, University of Pennsylvania.
"Harbeen has an amazing knack of grasping and mastering details without ever losing the meaning of the big picture. I am overjoyed that she has decided to put down in black and white her thoughts and methods that can help us navigate, delicately and firmly, through our activities and our relationships."
