How to Know a Person
David Brooks
How well do we know the human psyche? The human mind is said to be the most mysterious thing in the world. The strange thing is that we will never find out whether we control our mind or if it controls us. By forming deep relationships, we can feel truly valuable and enrich someone's life through support, love, compassion, tenderness, and comfort..To judge what kind of person someone is, look at their actions. This book will help you get to know a person before forming a close relationship, whether in the workplace, in everyday friendships, or as life mates.
The Second Mountain
David Brooks
“The Second Mountain” explores two ways of seeing the world: one in which the self takes center stage (the first mountain) and one in which fulfillment is derived from service to others (the second mountain). While living on the first mountain is a superficial and hollow experience, permanent joy and wholeness can be derived from living on the second.
