Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good. 1st Edition. In a style as informal and entertaining as his on-camera appearances, Willard Scott tells his own story--a story of a young boy growing up in Washington, DC, and smitten very early by the magic of radio. Young Willard did all the things young boys do, but he also haunted his local radio station doing a variety of nuisance jobs at no pay. By the time he was in high school, he had his own radio program. His almost pesky availability and unfailing acceptance of any chore the station assigned eased him into the new world of television and a variety of jobs that expanded his personality and prepared him for the Big Break. This story is not a rags-to-riches chronicle; it's a story of growing up, of friends and relatives, of breaks and boners--all charges with a natural zest for savoring the tide, not just fixing on the destination. You'll get to meet the Scott clan, and walk through the farm country that still plays such an important part in Willard Scott's hectic enriching life.

"An inspiring, thought-provoking exploration of what it means to live a meaningful life, from the #1 New York Times bestselling aouthor of The Road to Character. Every so often, you meet people who radiate joy - who seem to know why they were put on this earth, who glow with a kind of inner light. Life, for these people, has often followed what we might think of as a two-mountain shape. They get out of school, they start a career, and they begin climbing the mountain they thought they were meant to climb. Their goals on this first mountain are the ones our culture endorses: to be a success, to make your mark, to experience personal happiness. But when they get to the top of that mountain, something happens. They look around and find the view.unsatisfying. They realize: This wasn't my mountain after all. There's another, bigger mountain out there that is actually my mountain. And so they embark on a new journey. On the second mountain, life moves from self-centered to other-centered. They want the things that are truly worth wanting, not the things other people tell them to want. They embrace a life of interdependence, not independence. They surrender to a life of commitment. In The Second Mountain, David Brooks explores the four commitments that define a life of meaning and purpose: to a spouse and family, to a vocation, to a philosophy or faith, and to a community. Our personal fulfillment depends on how well we choose and execute these commitments. Brooks looks at a range of people who have lived joyous, committed lives, and who have embraced the necessity and beauty of dependence. He gathers their wisdom on how to choose a partner, how to pick a vocation, how to live out a philosophy, and how we can begin to integrate our commitments into one overriding purpose. In short, this book is meant to help us all lead more meaningful lives. But it's also a provocative social commentary. we live in a society, Brooks argues, that celebrates freedom, that tells us to be true to ourselves, at the expense of surrendering to a cause, rooting ourselves in a neighborhood, binding ourselves to others by social solidarity and love. We have taken individualism to the extreme - and in the process we have torn the social fabric in a thousand different ways. The path to repair is through making deeper commitments. In The Second Mountain, Brooks shows what can happen when we put commitment-making at the center of our lives." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. "David Brooks' gift -- as he might put it in his swift, engaging way - is for making obscure but potent social studies research accessible and even startling." - The New York Times Book Review. "At his best, Brooks is a normative version of Malcolm Gladwell, culling from a wide array of scientists and thinkers to weave an idea bigger than the sum of its parts." - USA Today. "Brooks' considerable achievement comes in his ability to elevate the unseen aspects of private experience into a vigorous and challenging conversation about what we all share." - San Francisco Chronicle. "One of the most prominent public intellectuals of our time explores what it takes to lead a meaningful life in a self-centered world." - The Washington Post.
