This Hungry Spirit: Your Need for Basic Goodness
C. Clint Sidle’s newest book, This Hungry Spirit: Your Need for Basic Goodness, combines personal stories, hands-on tools, and fresh thinking on happiness, success, leadership, and spirituality to help us find the source of our personal joy—basic goodness.
Basic goodness opens you, broadens your view, connects you with others, and engages your natural talents with the world’s needs.
Basic goodness awakens a trust in yourself that has magic in it—inspiring choices that serve the best you possible. When you come from basic goodness, the world responds in positive ways.
It’s the one thing that leads to
- Confidence
- Happiness
- Success
- Work that you love
- Leading well
- Making a difference
- Connecting genuinely with others
- Satisfying relationships (including romantic)
- Letting go of old issues
- Creating new possibilities
- Becoming your best possible self
- A meaningful, considered life
This Hungry Spirit is about how you can find it, nurture it, and watch it nourish every aspect of your life. It’s particularly relevant for anyone looking for meaning in work, or who needs to reinvent themselves in work or in relationship with others.
