Description
Successful businessman and bestselling author Andrew Griffiths has a simple but effective message to share: it's time to stop analysing our lives and time to start living. Andrew defines 'The Me Myth' as the limiting belief that the world revolves around 'me'. In short chapters he gives advice on how to shift the focus away from 'me' and start living a better life through simple actions like mastering empathy, giving generously, inspiring people and having fun. The message is simple, but profound. And, most importantly, Andrew makes the journey fun! The Me Myth is a result of Andrew's observations as well as his own personal journey. His life has been filled with extraordinary hardships and obstacles, from an unusual childhood to near-death experiences, which he has not only overcome, but thrived on. This is the next step in personal growth - it's time to move away from internal analysis and move the focus outwards
How did you come to write this book?
I get to meet amazing people in the course of my work and I started to realise that those who were the most extraordinary shared a common trait - they didn't have the belief that the universe revolved around them. Instead they were empathetic, compassionate, adventurous and fun, all because they looked at the world in a different way. I thought about my own rather unusual life and realised that this was a powerful way to think and it was the perfect way to grow as a human being. Voila - the ME MYTH was born.
