La llave de la buena vida : Saber ganar sin perderse a uno mismo y saber perder ganándose a uno mismo

The greatest gift we can give a child is, without a doubt, our own life. Throughout it, they will enjoy many moments of growth, expansion, and happiness, but they will also experience loss, introspection, and pain. In the story that opens this book, parents decide to give their son, on his eighteenth birthday, a three-pronged key to help him open the various doors that will appear before him. Based on this story, Joan Garriga draws on his extensive experience as a therapist to offer insights that illuminate our path to living fully in an increasingly complex world. The three prongs of the key represent the three resources we must always turn to, whatever the situation: truth, courage, and awareness. In other words, being oneself, the courage to persevere in the face of adversity, and remaining conscious of our own existence and the world around us. If we use this key, we will achieve the good life, which is nothing other than being able to take and let go with joy what life has in store for us, or, in other words, "knowing how to win without losing oneself and knowing how to lose while gaining oneself."
