Arianna Huffington’s “Thrive”

Given the name of our website, many colleagues and friends have brought Huffington’s book entitled “Thrive” to my attention so I had to take a look.  I have come to understand that when a focal point is inspiring to me, it is most often a theme emerging all over the place in my surrounding culture.  The idea of thriving is popping up everywhere.  That said, for those interested in a good read on the topic with great references and some useful techniques toward “redefining success” by employing what Ms. Huffington describes as the “third metric” this is a worthwhile read.  The book even offers a list of tools, apps and resources in the appendix. I particularly enjoy her journalism skills in referencing both ancient and contemporary multicultural understandings of the wisdom that lies beyond compulsive pursuit of external validation.  A consummate journalist and prolific author, Adrianna Huffington  has struck the right cord, at least for me, with her latest book.
