In the middle of the road of my life I awoke in a dark wood
where the true way was wholly lost
-DANTE
Like Dante, many of today’s corporate workers find themselves
lost in the day-to-day duties of their jobs. Our lives seem shaken
by the events of September 11 and the seemingly endless examples of
corporate scandal, it’s become more difficult than ever to find
meaning in the workplace.
Has your work lost its meaning? Are you afraid of pursuing your
dreams for fear of failing or–worse–getting fired? Do you yearn
to find creativity, and even joy, in your job?
In The Heart Aroused, David Whyte brings his unique perspective
as poet and consultant to the workplace, showing readers how
fulfilling work can be when they face their fears and follow their
dreams. Going beneath the surface concerns about products and
profits, organization and order, Whyte addresses the needs of the
heart and soul, and the fears and desires that many workers keep
hidden.
Through the poetry of both classic and modern masters, Whyte
helps readers find both professional and personal fulfillment. In
Beowulf, Whyte uncovers the key to confronting office conflicts.
Like the poem’s courageous hero, readers will travel to the belly
of the beast of a problem and emerge triumphantly with a solution.
The poems of Pablo Neruda help on find inner silence even in the
busiest, most confining office space. With T.S. Eliot as a guide,
Whyte teaches readers to appreciate the need to open themselves up
to possible failure–and as a result, probable success.
At a time when corporations are calling on employees for more
creativity, dedication, and adaptability, and workers are trying
desperately to balance home and work, this revised edition of The
Heart Aroused is the essential guide to reinvigorating the
soul.
