"A one-two punch! Half kick in the ass, half cheerleading encouragement." —Steven Pressfield, author of The War of Art If you are happy being just a dreamer, perhaps you don’t need this book. If you’re enjoying the status quo, don’t even consider reading this book. If you are content waiting for success to find you, please put this book down and go find something else to read. Why has Poke the Box become a cult classic? Because it’s a book that dares readers to do something they’re afraid of. It could be what you need, too. "Is Seth Godin the Pied Piper for however many of us have been afraid to fail? Will I answer his call? Will you?" —Peter Shermeta, reviewing the original edition of Poke the Box

Book Description
Eight years ago, Poke Rafferty, an American travel writer, and his Thai wife, Rose, adopted a Bangkok street child named Miaow, forming an unconventional intercultural family. That family has weathered extreme challenges—each of its three members carried the scars of a painful and dangerous history—but has stuck together with tenacity and love (and a little help from some friends). Now that family is in jeopardy: the birth of Poke and Rose’s newborn son has littered their small apartment with emotional land mines, forcing Poke to question his identity as a dad and Miaow to question her identity as a daughter. At the same time, the most cantankerous member of the small gang of Old Bangkok Hands who hang out at the Expat Bar suddenly goes missing under suspicious circumstances. Engaged in the search for the missing American, Poke is caught completely off-guard when someone he thought was gone forever resurfaces—and she has the power to tear the Raffertys apart.

Book Description
When we discover how to filter our thoughts and to purposefully interpret the events of our lives, we can lift ourselves up beyond our challenging times and far beyond any seductive distractions. A Poke in My Eye is the product of introspective dialogues and a drastic paradigm shift from some of the lowest points of life. In the middle of the mental chaos, the power of simple stories with extraordinary lessons is what gave birth to a symbolic poke to my eye-- a sudden consciousness that there is more to live for, and even more reasons to hang on for one more day. A Poke in My Eye is the lens through which I have had the opportunity to examine both memories and expectations, but most importantly, to not lose sight of the chance to go through a day with conviction and integrity. Only you and I can make the moments of our lives count.
