The Coffee Bean
The Coffee Bean: A Simple Lesson to Create Positive Change | Jon Gordon, Damon West
6 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
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?

I‘m behind in posting this! I am so excited for the breath and relax cut outs. They are perfect for my calm corner in my classroom. Girl, the bugs are biting so the candles are absolutely needed and so thoughtful, and everything else is perfection. The book was so much fun and was sent out today @Kshakal

@Kshakal I am not going to lie. That candy bar didn‘t make it an hour out of the postal packaging. Penny and I ate it during our spelling studies haha. It was a great motivator for both of us. I‘m in love with the pot holders. Thank you so much!! #coffeebeanbookclub #yallmyfav!

Mehso-so

I think this book tells a good message in a way that's very accessible to many ages and people, but it's also too simple. It's written as a narrative about a guy learns about "the coffee bean secret" and his life always works out when he takes the coffee route. I guess it's too positive for me ?? but an overall good message ? #impulseread #tmskellington #wintergames

We have this book set up by the register and since it's short, figured I'd finally check it out #impulseread #tmskellington #wintergames @clwojick @StayCurious
