We're Working Isn't Working "Beautiful, bold and brilliant.... I
must confess I did not just read this book, I entered into long
conversations with it. Rarely comes a title that makes you stop
whatever you are doing and look at yourself in a new light, look
within. Arianna Huffington is a compassionate rebel; she not only
changes the world but also understands it. Her latest book Thrive
profoundly transforms our understanding of success and wakes us up
from the broken dreams we chase." -Elif Shafak, bestselling

life today with awareness, grace and a sense of humor. I have a
feeling I'll be referencing this book for a long time."
