Summary of Jon Gordon & Damon West's The Coffee Bean

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Abe was a student who was having a difficult time in school and in his life. He was having tests coming up and a big paper due, and his parents were fighting a lot. He spent a lot of time on social media and watching videos, but that didn’t help. #2 The most powerful lesson you will ever learn is that life is like a pot of very hot water. You will find yourself in environments and facing conditions that test who you truly are, and can change, weaken, or harden you if you let them. #3 Abe’s attitude changed, and his state of mind was elevated. He was no longer stressed about his paper or school, and he had transformed the culture of his school with his coffee bean club. #4 The Academy created a curriculum and a schedule designed to cause the cadets to fail. The cadets couldn’t humanly do all that they had to do, so they would fail at something. The Academy found that through failure, most cadets would become stronger, wiser, and better.
