SALMON TO SIDDHARTHA inspires us to re-envision our challenges, transform loss and resentment into a foundation for learning and growth, live with greater balance, and experience more daily joy.The author utilizes the analogy of the salmon to illustrate the painful approach: diving like hell into the fast-flowing river of life, swimming against the current, and fighting our way towards our goals until exhausted. What if there's another way? Drawing from the wisdom of the Buddha-like character of Siddhartha from the classic Hermann Hesse novel, Fergusson establishes the 5 Siddhartha Principles which allow us to respond to our obstacles in a more peaceful way, clearly visualize what we want to create, and take action towards our goals.This self-help memoir offers guidance for those launching themselves in search of new meaning and happiness in their relationships, careers, and lives.
