But Lee was also a deeply philosophical thinker\, learning at an early age that martial arts are more than just an exercise in physical discipline—they are an apt metaphor for living a fully realized life. \nNow\, in Be Water\, My Friend\, Lee’s daughter Shannon shares the concepts at the core of his philosophies\, showing how they can serve as tools of personal growth and self-actualization. Each chapter brings a lesson from Bruce Lee’s teachings\, expanding on the foundation of his iconic “be water” philosophy. Over the course of the book\, we discover how being like water allows us to embody fluidity and naturalness in life\, bringing us closer to our essential flowing nature and our ability to be powerful\, self-expressed\, and free. \nThrough previously untold stories from her father’s life and from her own journey in embodying these lessons\, Shannon presents these philosophies in tangible\, accessible ways. With Bruce Lee’s words as a guide\, she encourages readers to pursue their essential selves and apply these ideas and practices to their everyday lives—whether in learning new things\, overcoming obstacles\, or ultimately finding their true path. \nBe Water\, My Friend is an inspirational invitation to us all\, a gentle call to action to consider our lives with new eyes. It is also a testament to how one man’s exploration and determination transcended time and place to ignite our imaginations—and to inspire many around the world to transform their lives. \nAbout the Shannon Lee \nShannon Lee is the CEO and Owner of the Bruce Lee Family Companies and President of the Bruce Lee Foundation\, as well as the daughter of the legendary martial artist and cultural icon\, Bruce Lee. Shannon’s mission is to provide access to her father’s philosophy and life through education and entertainment. She is the creator of Camp Bruce Lee through the Bruce Lee Foundation\, and has spoken at TED\, TEDx\, and Creative Mornings\, to name a few. Shannon lives in California with her daughter\, Wren\, where she co-hosts the Bruce Lee Podcast and executive produces Cinemax’s Warrior. \nAbout Jeff Chang \nJeff Chang is the Vice President for Narrative\, Arts and Culture at Race Forward.
