Nothing Higher: Why You Need to Descend in Order to Soar

by Sunday Faronbi

As powerful as humility is, a common misconception is that it's a sign of weakness. Some think that people who are humble behave as if they are inferior to others, or turn themselves into doormats for people to trample upon with impunity. These cannot be further from the truth. In fact, there is an incredible amount of courage and strength involved in practicing humility in the ways that are described in this book.Nothing Higher gets to the heart of true humility and explores its impact on our lives, both personally and professionally. In business, this book shows that humility is the foundation of the great leaders, and the basis for world-class customer service. As an aspect of our personal and spiritual development, Nothing Higher shows how humility leads to a more loving, compassionate and purposeful life. This book is refreshing, and you will find a coherent and concise message, that can benefit anyone, within its pages.Although this book's message is personal and easy to relate to, it is not a message that is demonstrated often or consistently in daily activity. For a world that’s in a hurry and self-focused, this message can possibly be the watershed moment humanity needs to change the game. Nothing Higher speaks of real people in the real world. It contains essential truths that can make each of us a better person. Its words invite us to a life that is fuller, and guides us to have positive influence over others. Humility - true humility, can produce beneficial results in the reader and in the lives of those they influence.

Nothing Higher is an inspiring read, teaching impactful focus to all aspects of one's life where being humble and grateful can help you become a more rounded person. Written in one of the most humble ways I've read to date, Sunday uses global, real world examples he's collected from many sources (quoted concepts, personal and professional intereactions) to teach these concepts through other's examples. At the end of each chapter I found the "what you can do" section to be exactly what I needed to help start anything I wanted to change or improve in myself, making this book even more insightful and fullfulling. I very much enjoyed this book, and will suggest it to my coworkers and friends!

Nothing Higher by Sunday Faronbi is a refreshing approach to understanding respect and value. There is a lot in print to help one understand the complexity of living in a diverse world. Sunny brings an authentic and refreshing approach to actively fighting bias.

In nothing Higher Sunny addresses the social problem of how we value others and ourself. Read Nothing Higher and hear a first generation account of what it means to leave behind the familiarity of Nigeria and become a humble leader in America.

Nothing higher is a book that teaches about those principles of life in general. It's like an instructional manual/ handbook of life. It's helps us to pay closer attention to things we generally don't. It touches on all areas of life like relationships, communication and personal growth. As I was reading through the book, I feel like I am reading from the book of Proverbs in the Bible. I encourage people to read the book. I promise it will bless your life as it has for me.
