Tracking Wonder - Book Excerpt
by Jeffrey Davis

Tracking Wonder
by Jeffrey Davis
In a world obsessed with work and productivity, many people feel broken by distraction, disengagement, and a default reactivity to life’s surprises, but can rediscover their innate genius to lead a more creative life rooted in the present. In the new book Tracking Wonder, Jeffrey Davis – an acclaimed teacher, consultant and speaker – presents a science-based, soul-centered counter-approach to hyper-productivity that speaks to the cultural moment of “workism” and languishing.
Davis offers an eye-opening and mind-expanding exploration of wonder and how to nurture its profound capacity to reverse apathy and heal burnout.
For over 15 years, he has researched, interviewed, and worked with luminaries across cultures and professions to identify wonder as the single universal experience that opens us to create awakening across all walks of life. As Davis writes, “Imagine wonder as a multi-faceted prism through which you can see and experience your days anew.” Tracking Wonder is the first book to examine six facets of wonder – openness, curiosity, bewilderment, hope, connection and admiration – and how to foster them in work, creativity and relationships. Each chapter’s “Tracking Wonder Journey” feature invites readers to approach a day with more mindfulness and curiosity.
