Publisher's Synopsis
Dr. Donald Huntington spent three decades in a process of renewal through discovery of principles that have made his life richly rewarding, filled with blessings, and a benefit to others.
Dr. Huntington has three degrees in Theological Studies, but it turned out that religion was unable to make him happy and profitable to others in this world. He found a better way than the mere practice of religion in becoming the man that he always wanted to become.
Dr. Huntington spent eight years as a pastor and a missionary, but learned that mere service for others and for God was not the way for him to find happiness and fulfillment. He learned that there was something else - something far more simple and practical than mere performance - to make him the person that he wished to become.
Dr. Huntington spent two decades as a respected technical writer in Silicon Valley and for the past eight years has been the co-owner and editor-in-chief of two successful lifestyle magazines, but discovered that professional excellence and the admiration of others couldn't create the constant sense of joy and satisfaction that he sought for, and that he now enjoys.
Dr. Huntington learned that there was something far more effective in making him delighted with life and contented inside his own skin than professional success. The pages of "How To Put Your Whole Self In" share simple but effective methods of engaging with others and with life that invests each of Dr. Huntington's own days with a sense of accomplishment and even delight. Readers of "How To Put Your Whole Self In" are always surprised and usually delighted by the subjects that the book covers, by the depths at which it covers them, and by the unique way the writing has of holding the readers' attention. They are inspired by the realistic portrayal of the ability everyone possesses of shaping attitudes, actions, and relationships so they actually do become good for themselves, good for others, and good for Heaven's sake.
