Publisher Description

Imagine the leaders of one of New York City's top real-estate firms coming together every Monday morning to hear...the moral and spiritual thoughts of a Rabbi.

Imagine them returning, week after week... coming to eagerly anticipate those five minutes as a moment of uncommon peace in the world's most brutally competitive environment.

Wouldn't you like to be a fly on the wall? To hear the paths Alan Lurie traced for his listeners, how he helped them bring together their spiritual and business lives, the sacred and the profane? Five Minutes on Mondays compiles these talks for the first time, sharing Lurie's deep and profound inspiration on the challenges we all face - at work and in life.

Lurie draws on millennia of philosophy, theology, and science to help us answer our deepest questions, comfort our deepest yearnings, and become better people - more connected to each other, and to the Greater Purpose. Here's how to:

  • Prosper while keeping your integrity
  • Balance faith, honor, and ambition
  • Use your workplace as your moral and spiritual gymnasium
  • Find deeper meaning and purpose in your work
  • Face your fears and failures, and keep going
  • Gain real respect - and give it
  • Live one authentic life - at work, and everywhere else

    " Some great stories, quotes and examples, and references. But not too much "structured" approach, nor any big new revelation - mainly all common sense and obvious stuff. "

    " An ok book to keep on your phone for when you are stuck some place and have a few minutes to kill. I got it for free - not sure that I'd pay for it. "
