Publisher's Summary

Peaks and Valleys is a story of a young man who lives unhappily in a valley until he meets an old man who lives on a peak, and it changes his work and life forever.

Initially, the young man does not realize he is talking with one of the most peaceful and successful people in the world. However, through a series of conversations and experiences that occur up on peaks and down in valleys, the young man comes to make some startling discoveries.

Eventually, he comes to understand how he can use the old man's remarkable principles and practical tools in good and bad times and becomes more calm and successful himself.

Now you can take a similar journey through the story and use what you find to your advantage in your own work and life.

    "Reminder of good common sense."
    Any additional comments?

    Great book that gives common sense guidance on maximizing the time on the peaks, minimizing the time in the valleys and getting the most good out of both experiences.

    "Pretty good"

    Similar to Who Moved My Cheese -- good overall message, but I'm not sure how much I really got out of it.

    "Basics made obvious"

    The book simplifies what you may already know that life just 'is' but how to deal with it for the best results for YOU. Very relatable text and to the point.
