NEW YORK, May 15 /Christian Newswire/ -- Rebuilding a country in crisis begins with the foundation. Faithful Christian, Fortune 500 executive coach and best-selling author Dave Durand describes in his new book that the key to lasting success at work and at home lies in maximizing one's potential and taking action, just so long as you do not pursue it with compromised principles.
In Win the World Without Losing Your Soul, published by The Crossroad Publishing Company, Durand states, "It takes morally trained leaders to change this culture. What we have seen unravel over the past several months is the result of a lack of understanding of what it takes to succeed without compromising basic honesty and integrity. Most of this cataclysmic collapse of institutional and governmental structures could have been prevented in a society led by principles over personalities."
This concept is not a new one. The Lord warns the world about fleeting success in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 7:24-29). Jesus says, "Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and buffeted the house. But it did not collapse; it had been set solidly on rock. And everyone who listens to these words of mine but does not act on them will be like a fool who built his house on sand. The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and buffeted the house. And it collapsed and was completely ruined."
Durand expounds on what Christ taught and provides practical applications on how to Win the World Without Losing Your Soul. As the owner of three thriving businesses, Dave understands what causes people to succeed and fail. "When you fail to do what you were designed to do, the consequences are not neutral; they are negative. When you fail to love, people get hurt. When you fail to do your job, at a minimum, your company and coworkers suffer; at worst, you get fired. When you fail to take care of your body, you get sick. When you fail to use your natural talents and gifts, you begin a process of mental and emotional turmoil. Given enough time, this will lead to a lack of satisfaction in life, depression and eventually death," says Durand.
We are at a crossroads in time when our culture and the people who are part of it should be examining the areas that lead to the crisis in America. This book will help anyone from corporate executives to teachers to stay-at-home parents identify the common pitfalls which lead to compromise and develop the skill sets to fortify personal traits of heroic virtue and gain lasting success in all areas of life.
