  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  In Ann Patchett's novel, "Bel Canto," a lavish birthday party for a Japanese businessman, Mr. Hosokawa, at the Vice President's home in an unnamed South American country is disrupted by a band of terrorists hoping to capture the President. When the President fails to appear, the terrorists take the entire party hostage, setting off a prolonged and unexpected standoff. As days turn into weeks and then months, the hostages and their captors find themselves navigating an uneasy coexistence. The power of music, particularly the captivating voice of renowned opera singer Roxane Coss, transcends language barriers and creates an unlikely sense of community within the confines of the house. Amidst the tension and uncertainty, unexpected bonds form, challenging traditional roles and expectations. Love blossoms, unlikely friendships emerge, and a shared appreciation for beauty and human connection emerges, offering a glimmer of hope in a world held captive.

  Having understood the exchange, let us understand what is exchanged...
  
  In nature, plants and animals seek food in order to survive. Plants and animals also need power, to get food, and not become food. An animal without power will not eat and be soon eaten by others. Animals increase their power by collaborating with each other in herds, packs, and hives. Competition helps the stronger and faster get a greater share of the food. Collaboration helps the group; competition helps the mighty.
  
  Culture exists to provide food and power to humans. But for humans, food and power take very complex forms, as hunger and insecurity are fueled by imagination. For humans, that which satisfies human hunger is Lakshmi, the goddess of food and fortune, whose name is derived from the word laksha, or target. She is what we value and hoard the most. Durga is the goddess of security and power. Like Lakshmi, she too can be stored, stolen, and shared. Her name is derived from durg, or the fortress. Then there is Saraswati, goddess of knowledge, who helps humans discover, invent, and innovate new forms of food, and security.
  
  In this chapter, we will focus on the goddesses, Lakshmi, Durga, and Saraswati, who embody resources, power, and knowledge that humans exchange in the market.

  James Webb’s life is the American dream in a nutshell. Born to teenage parents in Laurel, Mississippi, and faced with a future working in the town’s only two factories, James chose to change his fate and forge his own path—to become a titan of business, a mentor, and a philanthropist. 
   
  In Redneck Resilience, James shares stories of amazing wins and devastating losses, of sin and redemption, of recovery and forward momentum. Most importantly, he discusses the benefits and advantages of resilience. 
   
  James uses his own life to illustrate truths about success in life and in business, including: 
  • Failures happen, and resilience vanquishes failure. 
  • No lesson or experience is ever wasted. 
  • When opportunity presents itself, take the risk. 
  • A true entrepreneur works for no one. 
  • You cannot succeed on your own. 
  • And much more. 
   
  Resilient people never take their eye off where they’re going, even when they get knocked down. They refocus. Resilience isn’t worried about the odds. Resilience finds a way.
