about
Being is greater than doing.
We all come into the world with a certain emptiness in our lives—an emptiness that leads to a search for meaning. And the world tells us that search for meaning can be solved by doing. Unfortunately, an overemphasis on doing has led many people away from cultivating an interior life that allows them to sustain their exterior life.
This explains the many failures we continuously see in day-to-day life. When a person’s inner life—who he or she is—is not prepared, that person’s character does not have the maturity or the strength to sustain them in the long run.
In this book, Miguel Núñez points us to Scripture and experience to show us how being is more important than doing. He teaches us how to cultivate the foundations of our lives, so that we can be what we need to be, in order to do what we need to do.
