“...She reaches a tipping point beyond which she’d hit rock bottom. Instead, she puts her foot down and decides not to allow others to rob her of her health and spirit. She redirects her energy into a better purpose and use of her time. This in itself is quite a gutsy story.
The better purpose is the promotion of empathy… When that feeling grabs you, it’ll vividly remind you to nurture and apply your empathy as you live your life. Which is the point of the book.”
– Don Harkness
“We are facing an inflection point in history, and the decisions we make today are going to decide the course of this Nation for decades to come. We still have a lot of work to do, but I know there is nothing we can’t do if we do it together.
Keep the faith!
…I look forward to writing the next great chapter in the American story with you.”
– President Joe Biden
As a software engineer, I’ve dedicated my career to solving complex problems across diverse industries. Yet, the greatest insights or the most profound solutions I’ve ever uncovered didn’t come from lines of code—they emerged from the pages of my personal journal, especially after facing the silent yet devastating impact of Empathy Deficits.
My book, Empathy Deficits–The Greatest Threat to Humans, invites you to discover a simple yet powerful truth: how to find unshakeable happiness even during life’s most challenging moments. Through candid, heartfelt stories of navigating through failure and trauma to achieve true success, you’ll uncover your inner guide—an inner voice that steers you back to your true self. It reveals a straightforward, repeatable truth: being kind to yourself so you can genuinely be kind to others and embracing self-empathy as the most effective ways to protect your well-being and recover from anything life throws your way. It’s about leveraging what you learn from your mistakes and finding clarity in quiet moments of reflection.
We can approach every single day to transform the worst into the best, accessing genuine happiness that no one can take away. The beautiful catch? We need each other to make it truly simple and profoundly effective. We can use this approach every single day to turn life’s lemons into lemonade.
Are you tired of feeling disconnected or struggling to find peace amidst life’s chaos? My aspiration is that this self-help memoir offers not just a solution but a daily practice to cultivate self-empathy and foster genuine connection. Discover Empathy Deficits today, and let’s nurture empathy together.
