Guidance: 9 Lessons for a Remarkable Life

Benjamin Berell Ferencz is a legend in the world of international law, one of the prosecutors at the Nuremberg Trials, the last witness and direct participant in those events. In this book, he tells the incredible story of his life... and provides us with 9 simple, compelling, and uplifting pieces of advice that anyone of us can follow. "Look for small joys in everything that surrounds you, and this will serve as a good support, like the oil that is poured into the fire to keep it from going out. Tell yourself that happiness is not about being content with little, but about striving for distant and unattainable goals: to find the job of your dreams, the home of your dreams, or to meet the love of your life. To find joy, you need to look around. Happiness owes you nothing. It is not a person or a system that you can be angry with or offended by. It is an emotion, and only you are responsible for it. You choose what to seek joy in." Benjamin Ferencz
