Synopsis

At its heart, this book is about rediscovering the joys of simple living in a world that has become complex, stressful and rushed. We react to the demands of a busy life, and not to our needs and imagination. David Irvine offers a blueprint for how we can be fulfilled. A masterful storyteller, he uses illustrations from real life to help make his point, and challenges the reader to reflect and act on the suggestions presented in this book.

"Simple Living in a Complex World will help you navigate the world you live in with a calm sanity."
—KEN BLANCHARD, author of The One Minute Manager

 "Simple Living in a Complex World is so wonderful!"
—JACK CANFIELD, author of Chicken Soup for the Soul

"This book is an oasis that refreshes the human spirit and leads us in a direction of significance vs. success. A must-read for CEOs and others in leadership roles."
—GORDON D. WUSYK, National Chairman, Canadian Association of Family Enterprise (CAFE)
