Start with Why
Author: Simon Sinek
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1591846447
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
The inspirational bestseller that ignited a movement and asked us to find our WHY Discover the book that is captivating millions on TikTok and that served as the basis for one of the most popular TED Talks of all time—with more than 56 million views and counting. Over a decade ago, Simon Sinek started a movement that inspired millions to demand purpose at work, to ask what was the WHY of their organization. Since then, millions have been touched by the power of his ideas, and these ideas remain as relevant and timely as ever. START WITH WHY asks (and answers) the questions: why are some people and organizations more innovative, more influential, and more profitable than others? Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and employees alike? Even among the successful, why are so few able to repeat their success over and over? People like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers had little in common, but they all started with WHY. They realized that people won't truly buy into a product, service, movement, or idea until they understand the WHY behind it. START WITH WHY shows that the leaders who have had the greatest influence in the world all think, act and communicate the same way—and it's the opposite of what everyone else does. Sinek calls this powerful idea The Golden Circle, and it provides a framework upon which organizations can be built, movements can be led, and people can be inspired. And it all starts with WHY.

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
There is very much written about what Jesus said throughout the New Testament. So I captured some of the key verses and expounded my personal thoughts and experiences on the ones that concerned me and have an impact on my life. One of the most valuable verses is Psalms 138:8 that reads, The LORD will perfect that which concerns me; Your mercy, O LORD, endures forever; Do not forsake the works of Your hands (NKJ). Gods confi dence will not go away as long as we remain confi dent in him. The amount of good that we have in our lives comes from God working his will in us. In due time, he will cause our transformation to grow through his supernatural favor. My intention is to stimulate our thought process to help us recognize Gods presence in every aspect of our life, even when we are asleep.
