He lives his words Oct 06, 2009
By Dash
"Daring Lee"
I worked for the author several years ago. He may not remember me. Although I never got real close to him, from a distance I gauged he was not only a cerebral and analytical individual, but also a quiet motivator. Mr. Lutes gave me the autonomy in my position to branch out and eventually fly. An early passage in his book, "Figuring out what makes people tick and then figuring out how to get to them, motivate them, and/or satisfy them has been my profession". It is all crystal clear now.
Much of the book pertains to the author's perspectives on life in general. Some common sense, some quite insightful.
Lutes claims to be a stoic. If the word stoicism had popped up as a multiple-choice question on an exam I probably would have guessed right, but the book has led me to research the ideology a bit more and understand it's overall vibe. Not a bad life philosophy at all.
My understanding is the book is all about passing practical life-learning lessons on to his kids. I believe it achieved its goal, not only to the intended audience, but to anyone who has the curiosity to pick up the book and read.
If you are a parent... Or a child... This book is a must read. Sep 21, 2009
By D. Fleming
The Art of Living is an amazing book with delightful quotations from across the ages. It is part advise, part philosophy, part legacy and written with a lot of heart.
It is the type of book that every parent would like to have written and every child would love to receive.
