The Core Message
Pokluda, with his signature wit and wisdom, explores the concept of replacing deadly vices with life-giving virtues. He argues that our culture often normalizes vices as coping mechanisms while sidelining virtues to our online personas. This disconnect leaves us feeling empty, exhausted, and directionless.
Key Virtues Explored
The book is structured around ten biblical virtues that Pokluda believes can help us overcome our self-destructive habits. These virtues include:
- Humility
- Forgiveness
- Generosity
- Diligence
- Self-Control
- Authenticity
- Rest
- Optimism
- Gratitude
By practicing these virtues, Pokluda suggests that we can transform our lives from the inside out, aligning our actions with our true values and desires.
Practical Insights
One of the strengths of Pokluda’s writing is his ability to provide practical, actionable advice. He doesn’t just tell readers to be more virtuous; he offers concrete steps and real-life examples to illustrate how these virtues can be integrated into daily life. Whether you’re struggling with procrastination, addiction, or simply feeling stuck, Pokluda’s insights can help you find a path forward.
Personal Transformation
At its heart, “Why Do I Do What I Don’t Want to Do?” is about personal transformation. Pokluda emphasizes that practicing virtues is not just about doing good deeds but about becoming the person you were meant to be. This transformation is a gradual process, but one that leads to a more fulfilling and purpose-driven life.
Conclusion
If you’re looking for a book that combines spiritual wisdom with practical advice, “Why Do I Do What I Don’t Want to Do?” is a must-read. Jonathan “JP” Pokluda’s insights into the human condition and his guidance on embracing virtues can help you break free from harmful habits and live a more meaningful life.
