French Horn taught me everything I needed to Know – Arthur Brooks

From Strength to Strength:’ Follow this link, fill out the CAPTCHA and … Arthur Brooks discusses his new book. He discusses about a nice set of ideas on building a happy and interesting life. His book, From Strength to Strength: Finding Success, Happiness, and Deep Purpose in the Second Half of Life  is a practical roadmap that addresses a central question: What can we do now to make our older years a time of happiness and purpose? Drawing on social science, philosophy, biography, theology, and eastern wisdom, as well as dozens of interviews with everyday men and women, Brooks shows us that true life success is well within our reach.

Interesting to know is, Arthur Brooks started his carreer as French Horn player, and states on this: “French Horn Taught Me Everything I Needed to Know”

Dr. Arthur C. Brooks played the French horn professionally in the City Orchestra of Barcelona

Also interesting and inspiring is an older text on “Life lessons from the world’s greatest composers“.

So, happy life, intelligence and music unite 🙂
