Synopsis
Our willingness to acknowledge the things we cannot control, and focus our energy on those things we can influence, is inextricably linked to our happiness and success in life. Based on years of study of the greatest philosophers, thinkers and psychoanalytic experts of all time and inspired by a battle with cancer at a young age, author Joe Caruso distills the essence of the simple, common, timeless human truths elemental to our existence in this very readable and enjoyable book. Written in Joe’s warm, engaging style, “The Power of Losing Control” offers unique, valuable, and usable insights and strategies to living a meaningful and satisfying life. While many self-help books deal with external strategies, like time-management or setting priorities, this book goes straight to the source, our inner-selves, and points out some of the simplest strategies and insights can have the biggest impact, such as Ten Attitudes and Ideas to Let Go Of, the Four Rules of Engagement, and the Five Stages of Wisdom. “We are the stories we tell ourselves we are,” and Caruso clearly embraces his approaches in his own life, making this book a credible, reliable way to help shift our perspective and open our eyes to our own reality. A great book to read, and reread.Excerpts from reader “If you are a controlling person, or let me rephrase it, if you like to feel like you are in control, this is for you.”“I have used many books, courses, introspection, meditation, ... to create a great life… What I love about this book * it tells the truth about the phenomenon of being a human being * it gives some actual practices you can use to help you * it touches the spiritual part of me that knows connecting to others and helping them is one of my greatest joys”“The author doesn't preach or anything. What it did for me was to reframe how I could view the concept of control (or lack of). Subsequently, that changed how I viewed things -- my job, my work, my relationship with my wife. I've become a happier person now, and when I cite things from the book, my friends think I'm some genius. I tell them to read the book.”See all reviews
