ENDORSEMENTS

"We all spend too much time, exert too much effort, and put too much energy into our work not to have it matter. Put simply, here's a book that will help you make sure that your work matters-to you and to others. Don't just read it; take it to heart."

—Alan Webber, Founding Editor, Fast Company magazine

"This book inspires us to remember that the essence of every calling is a summons to serve."

—Walter F. Mondale, former Vice President of the United States

"This book is music to your soul."

—Bob Rosner, author of Working Wounded and The Bosses Complete Survival Guide, and syndicated columnist

"As I read Dick and David's new book, I whistled...because they captured me, as they have before with their Preface! And they kept me captured throughout their entire book. They gave me new ways to think, ideas to ponder, action items to move on, and they made me smile. Thank you!"

—Beverly Kaye, coauthor of Love 'Em or Lose 'Em: Getting Good People to Stay

Whistle While You Work explicitly calls to our attention the paradox which all of us have experienced (if we bother to learn from our experiences), and that is "selfishness" and "selflessness" become one and the same. Selfishly we all want satisfaction and fulfillment in our lives, but we can only achieve that selfish end through selflessly making a difference in other people's lives. Whistle helps us discover the calling that will lead us to consciously experiencing the paradox. As with Repacking Your Bags, there is no question Dick and Dave have another hit on their hands."

—Doug Lennick, Executive Vice President, American Express Financial Advisors
