Check out a few recent ones:
“This is a great book for delving into or for having a tidbit of inspiration each day. Johnson is passionate about making people better, and this book is obviously a work of love. Don't expect to read it in one sitting (but you'll want to), but do expect it to wildly impact your thoughts and actions.” by Sandy G
“This book has set me on a new trajectory. Written in bite-sized juicy nuggets it is a hefty tomb of wisdom with hundreds of insights from masters and everyday life, condensed and sequenced into a map that will enable you to shift your life +1° at a time - starting today! I have not finished it yet...but am using it as part of my daily AM routine. I crack it open to see what morsel will be my focus for the day. As an educator and transitions coach, it has helped me rethink my messaging to students, staff, clients....and myself! Highly recommend.” by Patricia
“This is a super rich, incredibly dense packaging of the best coaching program in the world - it's no contest. Mind blowing, really. To get this all in a single book, simply amazing! As the title states, it's the best, and most comprehensive life advice available anywhere in the world, suitable for all humans. One would benefit greatly from diving deeper into the Heroic program, however, this book is the most direct and efficient way to engage with this transformational content. Given the chance, it will change your life, guaranteed.” by Linda
“If you want a book to help you improve & cover it all, from a HEROIC mindset full of Areté (excellence), then this is the book for you.” by Jian Marco Balahadia

5. Community Celebrations
Here’s a few of the latest posts from Heroes putting their philosophy into action this week.
Matt got in some Workshop reps with his family (who want MORE wisdom), Dennis baked some Hero Bars on his 16.5 mile hike filled with obstacles, and Justin’s Grand Canyon Adventure didn’t go as planned, but he used his Heroic Coach training to remain calm and make it through:
“I am grateful for the countless +1's, Philosopher Notes and Heroic Coach. I was extremely prepared mentally to eat the challenge like an energy bar antifragile style. I knew that it would all work out perfectly.”
(And echoing the gratitude for all of the men and women serving in first responders and tactical positions, for their constant vigilance and work to keep us safe at home and abroad! 🙏)
Check out more posts like these on Heroic social.
+1. Wisdom from the week:
