The human species grows in population at an alarming rate, yet we feel increasingly alone. People are connected globally in ways we've never been before, yet our sense of disconnect continues to expand. We live longer, eat better, play more and have to do little to survive, yet we feel like we're barely hanging on.Why?It's because we've distanced ourselves from the greatest of human gifts, and in doing so have lost track of the things that are truly important. Our self worth increasingly comes from people we barely know. We check our phones and computers almost minute-by-minute, desperate for validation from outside sources. We too often turn our backs on those who love us the most, or relegate them to second-class status. In this off-kilter world the grass appears perpetually greener over the fence; satisfaction becomes impossible because something better always seems available at a moment's notice. Family, fidelity and our sense of self are all at risk.How do we survive? How do we remain people of worth when everything seems so disposable and valueless? How do we make our way in this increasingly desolate and unforgiving world?Author Joss Conlon draws from the most fundamental sources to answer these and similar questions, and shows you how to find peace and direction in a world turned upside down.This work is exactly what it purports to be...a nudge toward tranquility in a decidedly unsettling time. It is a reminder that to be the person we are supposed to be we must first love ourselves and then love others, and guides us in that pursuit. "Gentle Nudge" will help you to escape the headlong march toward things that seem important but are not, while easing you toward the one thing that has been vital to our survival since the dawn of humanity.There is a person you were created to be and a life you were truly meant to lead. This book will help you find both.
