We may know that true success lies in following the one who created us, but in our increasingly divided and comparison-driven society, many of us find ourselves yearning for an elusive form of success that revolves around money, power, influence, and accolades. It is time for us to remember that success is not just about what we possess but about how we live our lives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book invites us to explore the beauty and complexity of the world around us and to reflect on how our faith in Jesus has been shaped by the consumer culture and cultural preferences of our society. It offers us an opportunity to redefine success, choosing love over efficiency, depth over volume, and genuine friendship over cold transactions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJesus' life and teachings provide us with a perfect antidote to the wrong kind of success that is prevalent in our world. He invites us to experience a success that truly satisfies our souls and brings us closer to the one who created us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo, let us embark on this journey of self-reflection and redefine success in our own lives. Let us choose to live lives of love, compassion, and service to others, and to seek success not in the things of this world but in the things that matter most: our relationships with God and with one another. As we do so, we will find that true success is not just attainable but a fulfilling and enriching experience that brings us closer to the one who loves us unconditionally.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 176g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 129 x 197 x 17 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780281088171\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pete Portal","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44896051134714,"sku":"9780281088171","price":9.27,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1702640316715_book.jpg?v=1702726838","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/how-to-be-unsuccessful-an-unlikely-guide-to-human-flourishing-9780281088171","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
