EMOTIONAL EQUATIONS Simple Truths for Creating Happiness + Success

The author’s gentle speaking voice, totally void of hype or intellectual pretense, will help listeners savor the thoughtful ideas in his latest book. He is a hotel entrepreneur, speaker, and executive coach who, after suffering a series of tragedies and losses, found emotional growth and healing by using conceptual equations such as Disappointment = Expectations – Reality, or Despair = Suffering – Meaning. But instead of dwelling on the heaviness of these issues, he uses his authentic voice to explain some very useful principles and remind us of the possibilities each of us has for happiness and success. The ideas are philosophical and spiritual without being explicitly so because Conley has such a practical way of speaking about the core dilemmas of life—responsibility, regret, faith, love, and meaning.
