Sick of striving? Giving up on grit? Had enough of hustle culture?
Daunted by the 10,000-hour rule? Relax: As the French know, it's
the best way to be better at everything. In the realm of love, what
could be less seductive than someone who's trying to seduce you?
Seduction is the art of succeeding without trying, and that's a
lesson the French have mastered. We can see it in their
laissez-faire parenting, chic style, haute cuisine, and enviable
home cooking: they barely seem to be trying, yet the results are
world-famous, thanks to a certain je ne sais quoi that is the key
to a more creative, fulfilling, and productive life. For fans of
both Mark Manson's The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck and Alain de
Botton's How Proust Can Change Your Life, philosopher Ollivier
Pourriol's book draws on the examples of such French legends as
Descartes, Stendhal, Rodin, Cyrano de Bergerac and Francoise Sagan
to show how to be efficient a la francaise, and how to effortlessly
reap the rewards.
Eckhart Tolle's writings on the power of living in the moment fast
became the most sought-after modern classic on spiritual
enlightenment.
Now, in this new life-transforming book, we are
shown how to become our true selves by embracing silence and
stillness.
When we are no longer limited by our thinking mind,
suffering and pain disappears and we are able to move towards a new
understanding of our relationships, of nature, and of the profound
wisdom that is to be found in stillness.
