Clock versus Compass presents a unique list of easy to understand, bite-sized concepts, amalgamated from the fields of applied positive psychology, coaching and spirituality. Everyday concepts are presented with a view to explore positive balance and create peace and harmony in our lives. Too much passion can turn into obsession. Too much compassion can turn into gullibility. Too much grit into inflexibility. Too much optimism into blind faith. Perhaps the real secret to a happy life often lies in the fine balance of things. 'Find a quiet space, relax and enjoy the clever juxtapositions, insightful comparisons and piercing reflections that all come together in this collection of nuggets of perennial wisdom.' Mike George, author of Being Beyond Belief
