Summary of ronald d. siegel's the extraordinary gift of being ordinary

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 We are all interconnected, and what we do is only a small part of a much larger world. We must appreciate this reality if we want to be happy. I'd like to thank my wife, Gina Arons, for her patience and support as I worked on this book. #2 I'd like to thank all the teachers who have helped me develop and enrich my meditation practice, including Jack Kornfield, Joseph Goldstein, Sharon Salzberg, HH Dalai Lama, Chögyam Trungpa, Larry Rosenberg, Shunryu Suzuki, and Ram Dass. #3 If you are one of those people who always feels like you're not good enough, this book is for you. It's for the rest of us who may have days when we feel good about ourselves, but sooner or later hit a bump or crash. #4 We all struggle with self- evaluation, and we all constantly compare ourselves to others. But it is our relentless trying to feel good about ourselves that causes much of our distress.
