 “What you see on Instagram is a decoy. Real life, you know, is much more complex. Looking for your path to fulfillment, to happiness?

This book is for you.

My method is simple: it’s based on my own experience and that of all the ordinary people with extraordinary destinies with whom I’ve discussed in my podcast PAUSE. My guiding principle is clear and can be summed up in one word: alignment. It’s the opportunity we all have to live in accordance with our truth, with what we think, what we hope for, what we want to fight for.

Let’s pause for a moment together. I’m going to share with you what I’ve learned so that you can better find your way. 

As you’ll see, each of your weaknesses, but also each of your strengths, will help you chart your path towards an aligned life…. ”

Then you can become the true driver of change.

Determined to become a responsible and effective giver, Mars traveled around the world, asking two very simple questions. “Do you give to charity?” “Do you give enough?” While all answered yes to the first question, their second answer—“no” surprised him. From Hong Kong to Paris to New York, he met numerous people passionate about making the world a better place, yet unsure of how to do so. Combining Mars’ extensive knowledge and experience in tech and economics with the real-life stories of NGOs, Giving provides the inspiration, tools, and insight we can use to make our modern and unpredictable world a better place.

“Every day, I meet people who dream of starting their own business but don’t take the leap. They are usually afraid of making mistakes, of not getting there, of failing. I wrote this book for them where I chose to tell my readers what was never explained to me,  everything that I had to learn on the ground.

This is the book I wish I had in my hands before starting my business”. If you are looking to shape your future success, Alexandre Mars’ book is the one you need. Dive into the critical thinking behind any entrepreneurial success and go for it!

With one watchword: make giving becomes the norm.
