put his musings on creativity and personal development down on
paper. He enjoys playing the piano, traveling the world and hanging

Foreword writer Hector Garcia was born in Spain and worked at CERN
in Switzerland before moving to Japan, his home of more than 15
years. In Japan he developed voice recognition software and the
technology for young Silicon Valley companies to enter the Japanese
market. His popular blog led to his internationally successful
book, A Geek In Japan. Along with Francesc Miralles, he is the
author of the bestselling Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long and
Happy Life, The Ikigai Journey and Forest Bathing. hectorgarcia.org
"In this enjoyable debut, philosopher Liebermann explores the
Japanese principle of ganbatte (translated as "do your best and
don't give up")…Readers who enjoyed Hector Garcia's Ikigai for its
focus on finding meaning in everyday life will appreciate this
comforting take on how to address life's inevitable failures."
—Publishers Weekly
