How Starbucks Saved My Life by Michael Gates Gill (2008, Paperback, Reprint)

Heard this book was good from a friend, its on the NY Best Seller list, and it delivered! Great read, fun times, and lots of laughs. You will enjoy reading this book!

Most inspirational on how we can getso attached "things" and lose sight of who we are. Simplicity in life brings us joy and peace, is the message I received from this book.

This book was something I had been looking for for sometime, when a friend finally suggested ebay. I am so glad they did. I got the book for a very reasonable price, and in very good condition for a used book. I have worked for Starbucks for the better part of 10 years and soI was very interested in this man's story. I am also a paramedic and due to being out on medical leave,I went back to work for Starbucks, the company that helped me get through paramedic school. This is a company I came to believe in as a frequent customer and now as I work my way to a management position, I read everything that comes about the company.Thank you so much for the opportunity to get a much desired and now cherished book.

I heard Michael speaking on Oprah's XM station and was immediately inspired to buy the book. He tells the story of going from being a man with everthing (monetarily) to EVERYTHING (emotionally). It's a wonderfully inspiring story that helps to remind us what is truly important in this world.
