| Why go thru all the hassle of working conscientiously and being successful if it will not make you a more happy person? That’s the question noted writer and leadership expert David Fischman asks of readers in his new book ‘The Secret of the 7 Seeds’ ( Jossey-Bass, $22.95 ). First revealed in South America, this engaging book tells of the successful businessman and writer’s private struggle for contentment in his out-of-control life. In it, Fischman unearths his private story thru the make-believe character Ignacio Rodriguez, who, like many businesspeople from Big Apple to New Delhi, is hopelessly making an attempt to keep abreast of the velocity of life.
His doctor suggests that he try meditation to recover balance in his demanding life. A Religious Guide As an alternative Ignacio’s journey leads him to a non secular guide, who helps him heal by finding his course in the secret of the 7 seeds, which represent self-knowledge, meditation, egolessness, service to others, goodness, balance and liberty. ”The Secret of the 7 Seeds ‘ ignores the question : Why go thru all the hassle of working tirelessly and being successful if it will not make you a more happy person?’ expounded Fischman about creating a book often based totally on his life. ‘The old clich asserts that cash can’t buy you like, but research is establishing that it can’t buy you contentment either.’ Being satisfied, he says, should be one of our main goals in life and this book will take readers on a trail to get there thru 7 straightforward steps. Ignacio was caught in the classic ego trap, but continuously becomes liberated and at last sated. The Best Way To Outline Contentment The book redefines success, proposing it’s measured in contentment and not in assets. They most likely will regret not having been sufficiently near to their family or not having helped other people.’ But some distance from recommending quick-fix prescriptions, this book, primarily based on traditional Oriental knowledge and written as an easy to read novel, uses ancestral stories, stories, analogies and humour.
