WHAT YOU ADMIRE TRANSFORMS YOU (Admiration Series Part 4: Searching for Epitomes)
***SEE SPECIAL FREE OFFER BELOW***
Admiration has the most powerful transformative influence on your character development. But you have to focus your attention of people and things that are worthy of your admiration. How do you choose in a culture that often forces our attention on things that are shallow or meaningless?
In this final part of the 4-part series on the value of admiration I show how our culture epitomizes people and things according to superlatives: the greatest, the highest, the strongest and the best. We identify the people who give the most money to charity and consider them the epitome of generosity.
In contrast I teach the real definition of "epitome" and show how the people who recently have been called the most generous people in America based on how much they give to charitable causes are not actually demonstrating generosity at all. Perhaps they are, in fact, the least generous people around.
Tune in to discover the real meaning of epitomes and how to find them, admire them and become more like them.
