📘 Everyday Dharma by Suneel Gupta

Reading: September 1 - October 15

 

Discover how to align your outer success with your inner calling. In Everyday Dharma, Suneel Gupta—InstructureCon 2025 keynote speaker and bestselling author—guides readers through a practical path to finding meaning and fulfillment in the work they do every day.

 

Start the book on your own or follow along with our suggested schedule in the InstructureCon25 Encore Series  Canvas Network course.

 

Then, during this Instructure Live event, be ready to share your favorite quotes, inspirational passages, and action items you’re excited to try. During this casual 45-minute meet-up, we’ll unpack those takeaways and prepare to apply them to our own practice. (Bonus: Attendees will be awarded a Book Club participation badge through Canvas Credentials!)

 

Need a little inspiration to join the conversation? Whether you’re sharing a quick thought, a favorite quote, or a personal takeaway, there’s no wrong way to join in. Pick a prompt (or a few!) and let the discussion flow.

• Observe: What moment, passage, or story stood out to you the most? Think about what caught your attention first—something that surprised you, challenged you, or made you pause to reread.
• Reflect: What did this book make you think or feel about your own work, habits, or values? Consider how the ideas in this section connect to who you are or how you approach your day-to-day life.
• Connect: Where do you see Everyday Dharma show up in your classroom, team, or life? Look for real-world examples or parallels in your professional or personal experiences.
• Apply: How might you apply one idea from this reading to live or work with more purpose? Identify one small action or mindset shift you can take forward, something that helps you live your “everyday dharma.”

 

Let this book be your first step in turning InstructureCon inspiration into everyday action.
