“After a lifetime of experience in business and government, Piasecki is calling for a new era of restraint, frugality, and pub- lic-mindedness—not as PR window dressing, but as a set of non-negotiable first principles.”
"An impassioned and engaging call to make life and work more sustainable."
“Each day you wake up you make decisions that shape your own fate, your ascent, position, your own creativity. I like to think of it as fate is a personal construct. When I was at Cornell they had me teach an Emerson essay called “Freedom and Fate” where he said that fate was so overwhelming in some traditions that it’s as though we were each involved in a shipwreck and we were each thrown off the ship and all we had a chance to do was look at each other. I’ve come to believe that not only is the future near, but you can design your own fate.” – Bruce Piasecki
