Your Authentic Self: Be Yourself at Work

by Eric Gardenia

Many people feel as though they lead double lives, switching identities between work and home and longing for a seamless life in which the different parts of their personalities are united. The key to achieving this quality of life is authenticity — the ability to be yourself. The premise of Your Authentic Self is that by allowing the true self to appear in the workplace, people gain access to their hidden gifts, including creativity, intuition, and innovation. Including 40 techniques for gaining access to one's true self while on the job, author Ric Giardina combines an engaging storytelling style with personal anecdotes based on 25 years of experience with some of America's leading corporations.

Buku ini buku pertama saya membaca, dan saya sangat terkejut di dalam buku ini luar biasa mengajarkan kita untuk berfikir lebih luas tidak terkotak, optimis, yakin, bisa, berani. Yang tadinya pemikiran saya closeminded,saya baru sadar ternyata orang-orang hebat itu berfikir untuk menghargai di sekelilingnya dan lebih mengkotrol apapun. Ada quote yang saya suka berbunyi seperti ini : PEMIKIRAN mewujud dalam KATA-KATA, KATA-KATAmewujuddalam PERBUATAN, PERBUATAN mengembang menjadi KEBIASAAN, dan KEBIASAAN mengental menjadi KARAKTER.
Karenanya, amati pemikiran dan jalan-jalannya dengan seksama dan jadikan ia terpancar dari cinta laluterlahir dari kepekaan kepada segala yang hidup.

It reminds me that basically our own self-respect is the foundation of lasting joy. It's important to realize that we are beautiful just as we are, in our complete authentic selves.

This is a phenomenal book. Although the title states that it specializes "at work" it's really an incredible tool for every minute of every day.
