From bestselling author Jon Gordon and rising star Damon West comes
The Coffee Bean an illustrated fable that teaches readers how to
transform their environment, overcome challenges, and create positive
change.
Life is often difficult. It can be harsh, stressful, and feel like a pot
of boiling hot water. The environments we find ourselves in can change,
weaken, or harden us, and test who we truly are. We can be like the
carrot that weakens in the pot or like the egg that hardens. Or, we can
be like the coffee bean and discover the power inside us to transform
our environment.
The Coffee Bean is an inspiring tale that follows Abe, a young man
filled with stress and fear as he faces challenges and pressure at
school and home. One day after class, his teacher shares with him the
life-changing lesson of the coffee bean, and this powerful message
changes the way he thinks, acts, and sees the world. Abe discovers that
instead of letting his environment change him for the worse, he can
transform any environment he is in for the better. Equipped with this
transformational truth, Abe embarks on an inspirational journey to live
his life like the coffee bean. Wherever his life takes him, from school,
to the military, to the business world, Abe demonstrates how this simple
lesson can unleash the unstoppable power within you.
A delightful, quick read, The Coffee Bean is purposely written and
designed for readers of all ages so that everyone can benefit from this
transformational lesson. This is a book and message that, when read and
shared, has the power to change your life and the world around you. You
just have to decide: are you a carrot, egg, or coffee bean?
