Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, the famous comedy duo, made a priceless film in 1927, portraying themselves as entrepreneurs trying to sell Christmas trees door-to-door in Los Angeles. At their first stop, they were rudely rejected by a curmudgeonly resident. Offended by his attitude, they repeatedly rang his doorbell and re-solicited his business. Finally, in frustration, he grabbed the tree they were offering and threw it into the street.

Oprah Winfrey sat down with Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz in one of his most personal interviews ever on “Super Soul Sunday” (Oprah Winfrey Network). Schultz shares the story of his inspiring rise from the housing projects in Brooklyn, New York, to his current role as a global thought leader and innovator. Schultz shares the leadership lessons he learned while guiding this iconic brand for three decades, discussing how an emphasis on ethics, authenticity and a people-beforeprofit philosophy helped to grow and sustain his company. Reflecting on his #1 New York Times bestseller, Onward: How Starbucks Fought for Its Life Without Losing Its Soul, Schultz recounts the story behind the global coffee company’s comeback in 2008, when he returned as the CEO to help restore Starbucks’ core values and mission to inspire and nurture the human spirit “one person, one cup, and one neighborhood at a time.”

For those of us who regularly pray to God, we would give anything to actually hear His words in return. I have been thus blessed. My new book, Closet Words, is an inspiring collection of powerful words I heard from God in the stillness of my prayer closet. As I listened for God, I began hearing from Him—and I wrote down what I heard. After making the decision to share my journal in the form of a book, many people have been greatly impacted by Closet Words.

Creating authentic spiritual power requires stretching yourself. It can be no other way. Authentic power is the ability to speak and act with love no matter what is happening inside you and no matter what is happening outside you.

My spiritual explorations have taken me around the world. After graduating from Dartmouth in 1967, I joined the Peace Corps and was sent to northeastern Thailand where I sought training as a Buddhist monk. After leading a monastic life for five years, I made the conscious choice to return to the U.S., eager to share what I’d learned with the West and integrate the ancient teachings of Buddhism with the modern world.

They’re called “The Few. The Proud;” does that mean the many Americans who admire the U.S. Marines never hope to become more like them? Yes. Citizens appreciate and admire the character of those protecting them.

Most of us focus our gratitude on grand statements made only on special occasions: I’m thankful for my family, my friends, my country, my health, etc. I’m all for appreciating your biggest blessings. But when you don’t take time to value the big and small things, all year round, you miss out on potential happiness.

While I’m a modern-day princess, I come from modest means. I met my Italian Prince Charming (Adriano Pignatelli Aragona Cortes, Prince of the Holy Roman Empire) while on scholarship at Pepperdine. I didn’t wait for his kiss to save me, though—I forged a career of my own. Our two fabulous kids are the latest additions to a 1,000-year lineage that includes kings of Sicily and Spain, Catherine of Aragon, a pope, and a saint.
