Centerlined

by Henry J. Sienkiewicz

How can we unify thought and action in our daily activities? Why can't we have conversations that cut through the veils surrounding each of us? Centerlined encourages the reader to not only answer these questions, but also to develop a new approach to thinking. Centerlining, a method of reflecting and acting on your core values, is designed to enhance your life and promotes a holistic look at life around you. It identifies the costs-physically, mentally and spiritually-of not challenging yourself and others to live to their true potential as well. You'll learn that because everyone has their own centerline and their own perspective, everything is not "personal." It's a matter of how others perceive their own centerline and realities. Centerlining is about finding our commonalities with others, but embracing where we came from and the influences, social and otherwise, that affected us. You will understand your fundamental similarities with others. You will embrace change and continual revelations. By defining your centerline, you will ground yourself in love and find meaningful ways to act. Henry J. Sienkiewicz brings a wealth of experience to the fields of practical philosophy and critical thinking. Using his experiences in the fields of technology, languages and political theory, and his successful military, corporate and entrepreneurial knowledge, Sienkiewicz makes an impassioned call to centerline ourselves and others. His examples of real life experiences and theory combine to make a powerful statement about personal and professional relationships. He holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Notre Dame and a Masters of Science degree from the Johns Hopkins University.
