The Little Red Book of Wisdom

By Mark Demoss and Mark DeMoss (Author)

Book Overview

The search for wisdom invariably leads us back to the places we've overlooked. The Little Red Book of Wisdom takes the reader on a journey so often sidestepped in favor of the newer, quicker, easier. If you're seeking simplicity in a complicated world, Mark DeMoss's insights will illuminate your path to a wiser and more deliberate way of living. By illuminating the notions of integrity, humility, and self-restraint, DeMoss demonstrates what is possible when we value listening and thinking over talking and doing. Learn why a postage stamp is worth much more than 44 cents, and what time of day wisdom flourishes. Find out the wisest decision anyone can make, and the value of eating lunch alone. Rethink the advantages of technology, and learn how to safeguard yourself against any shadow of deathbed regret. Step out of the incessant business of your daily life, and spend a few moments learning timeless and foolproof truths that you can apply right away. Wisdom is not just for past generations; it calls to us today. We need only respond.

Customer Reviews

Good fatherly advice

I read 2-3 chapters every morning while sitting on my patio w/ the dogs. Each morning I walked away w/ something positive. Much of the advice reminded my of lessons my father taught me while growing up that I didn't really listen to. I'm glad I had the chance to hear it again while my dad is still around, so I could thank him for it.

Little Book with Big Insight

The Little Red Book of Wisdom is a wonderfully written motivational book which balances personal experience with scripturally based truths. It also includes tremendous insights into how to run a business. Anyone who reads this book will want to work for Mark DeMoss! It provokes a wide range of emotions within the reader. I laughed out loud with some stories, while others brought tears to my eyes! If you have read Andy Stanley's book, The Best Question Ever, then you will love this book as a great follow up!

Great read with rewarding insight

The Little Red Book of Wisdom is a great book to keep by your bed and read one of the short chapters before turning in for the night. It will definitely inspire you and provide you with food for thought during the next day.

A must-read for children, teens, and adults!

The Little Red Book of Wisdom provides a BIG helping of practical advice for life at home and at work. Well written and easy to read, the book will almost certainly challenge your thinking and instigate at least one new positive habit (mine are writing more letters and thinking more before I start working). If you are looking for a graduation gift, a First Communion gift, a confirmation gift, or just a "hey, you're my friend and I care about you" gift, you can do no better than Mark DeMoss' "Little Red Book of Wisdom."
