Pono Principle

Imagine what the world would be like if people centered their thoughts and actions on doing the right thing-for themselves, others, and the planet? How would each of these entities benefit, both personally and mutually? In The Pono Principle, author Robert DeVinck offers basic, easy-to-follow steps on how to better the world by asking one simple question: "e;What is the next right thing I could be doing?"e; He introduces the Hawaiian principle of pono-the practice of doing the right thing in all things. DeVinck illustrates how this sacred practice is at the core of Hawaiian culture and the spirit of aloha. As a resident of Maui, he's studied how the principle of pono has profoundly influenced and become central to his own life. DeVinck has learned that actions done for the common good prove to be far more rewarding than actions taken solely for personal gain. When that truth becomes apparent, lives change forever. In his inspirational guidebook, DeVinck has distilled the many life lessons he's learned, along with the wisdom of the world's great spiritual teachings, down to the pono principle. By living, eating, and being pono in your daily life, you'll come to know who you truly are, the person you were created to be.
