"In this engaging book, Peter Temes shows how to make the connection between reaching out to others and reaching our own goals. He explains the three levels of thinking available to us as we interact with others and shows that it is only the third level of thinking-when we think of others before ourselves-that offers us the fast track to happiness. He explores the nature of ambition, shares fascinating advice that applies to both professional and personal elements of life, and tells the stories of successful people who have lived by these very ideals.This is a map for finding the confidence and power, the opportunities and occasions, and the techniques and strategies for centering our relationships and our work on helping other people. There is no better or more rewarding purpose we can find, and no more practical tool for achieving success."
