The Zen Winemaker Darius Miller

In 2020 Gallup reported that 70% of all US employees are disengaged, stressed and frustrated in the workplace; are you one of them? Do you have the desire to move forward and develop the courage to follow your dreams knowing you can make them real? Or, are you stuck and need a little guidance to move along?Meet Joe our hero, who is stuck in the middle of frustration and termination. Caught in a hostile takeover in a dead-end job, he is lost and has no direction. Faced with mounting bills, a new child on the way and a lack of confidence, he is disillusioned. By chance, he happens upon Koi Zen Cellars, a craft winery located in San Diego and meets the enigmatic 'Zen Winemaker' who teaches Joe the art of winemaking and living a purposeful life. Over the course of a few months, Joe learns how to see reality as opposed to living in a world of fantasy. He learns the art of swirling to gain new perspectives from all angles. He learns the technique of smelling out opportunities while avoiding problems. He actively sips life through first-hand experience and learn to savor his experiences, both good and bad learning from his mistakes and moving forward with purpose. This book will not tell you how to create a purposeful life but will give you the insights, motivation, and techniques to do so on your own. This book was written for anyone who is stressed, frustrated, knows there is more and just needs a little guidance, encouragement, and direction. We all need a friendly hand in times of need, believe me, I have been in your shoes many times. Cheers, Darius MillerWinemaker/Owner/Bottlewasher
