This book is for people who desire to change their perspective and outlook about life, death, money, culture, beliefs and most importantly, history.
Throughout history, most people accepted and embraced the world they were born into and they were ridiculed whenever they questioned their worlds. If you were born in Saudi Arabia, America or China, you would most probably be a Muslim speaking Arabic, a Christian speaking English or a Buddhist speaking Mandarin, respectively. It would be no coincidence that everyone believes they possess the truth and are the only people in a covenant with God.
Societies that do not question the traditions of the past would never evolve. Do not wait until the time comes when you ask yourself, how did anyone accept that world the way it was?
I would like to share with you the views of three respected people who have generously shared their brief reviews, namely, Dr. Marshall Goldsmith, Dr. Heather R. Younger and Bruce Kasanoff.
"This is one of the books that I encourage you to read and think about its thought provoking ideas and how they really connect to you in a very profound way. This is a very powerful and inspiring book that calls us to open our minds to moments of communions, tolerance and peace. It took courage to write this book and will take courage to read it." Dr. Marshall Goldsmith, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Triggers, MOJO and What Got You Here Won't Get You There.
"In this book, Saeed demonstrates his grasp on humanity and shows us how to think about doing the same. If you are looking for a tool to help you re-frame your thoughts and become energized to follow that up with action that can change the world for the better, take some time to read the pages in this book." Heather R. Younger, J.D., best-selling author of The 7 Intuitive Laws of Employee Loyalty, host of the Leadership with Heart podcast and Founder and CEO of Customer Fanatix, L.L.C.
"Although Saeed writes halfway around the world in a very different culture, it is obvious to me that we have similar values. In re-reading Saeed's writings, he helped me to remember a lesson that too many of us forget: that great insights can come from other industries, other professions, other countries and other cultures. The greatest encouragement I can offer you is that Saeed's work makes me think; I am confident he will do the same for you." Bruce Kasanoff, Co-founder of Ikigai Park City.
I would like to leave you with few questions that you may be able to answer after reading the book:
Do you know if your version of history is absolutely right?
Do you know what is right and what is wrong?
Do you know if what you do not know is more important than what you know?
Do you know that it is not always what it seems to be?
Do you know if you are a voice or an echo?
Do you know if the choices you make are really your own choices?
After reading this book, you will discover that you might not know it all, honor that others see things differently, and recognize that you and others might be equally wrong. You will enjoy and learn from any version of history; it is just a STORY.
