Publisher's Synopsis
Doing and Being: The Power of Now and Where You've Been is a soulfully written guide to living with intention, humility, and quiet strength in a noisy world.
In a time when everyone is rushing to prove, perform, and predict the future, author Di Tran offers a refreshing and timeless message:
Tell people what you are doing, not what you have done. Tell people where you have been, not where you are going.
This deeply personal and universally relatable book is rooted in Di's own experiences as a father, immigrant, educator, and spiritual seeker. Written in gentle, plain English and filled with real-life reflections, each chapter speaks to the heart of what it means to be fully present-whether you're raising children, leading others, healing from the past, or simply learning to walk in peace.
In 12 heartfelt chapters, you'll explore themes like:
The quiet power of showing up daily
Why dreams grow slowly like seeds
How to let your actions speak louder than your words
The sacred strength of sharing where you've been
Teaching your children (and yourself) to live with presence
Trusting life's journey-without needing to know the ending
This book isn't about achieving more. It's about being more-right now.
Whether you're a parent, student, leader, or someone seeking calm and clarity in a fast-moving world, Doing and Being will help you reconnect with your soul's purpose, one quiet act of love at a time.
