Book Reviews of Who Do You Think You Are? Discover The Purpose Of Your LifeBook Review: Need an inspirational kick-in-the-pants? Read this book! Summary: 5 StarsDo you ever feel like you are moving forward but spinning your wheels at the same time?
Do you read all the right transformational books that give you wonderful information to help you recognize "who you are" and what your life's purpose is, but somehow successfully applying these wonderful tips to your own life still seems somehow just a bit outside your reach?
Or maybe you do have an idea of what your life's purpose is and how to pursue it... but you find yourself frequently 2nd guessing whether you're on the right track...
Most of us who are seeking to get clear and act on our specific purpose in life experience these speed bumps at least once along the road...
Wouldn't it help to read the stories of successful people who have found their life's purpose and have transformed their lives and are making a difference as they pursue their personal destiny?
THIS is the book...
My first impression of the book from its title was that of a friendly challenge or "nudge" toward self discovery...
something that resonated with my own ongoing inner reflection and exploration, so I eagerly started reading.
The book turned out to be so much more... a gift, a guide, an example of possibility.
(one of my favorite phrases and mantras - "Be an example of possibility")
In his book, Keith Leon asks the title question "Who Do You Think You Are?" - something that each of us who seek to know and pursue our path and purpose have asked ourselves, many times over...
The wisdom and inspiration in this book...
He poses this question to a number of successful and centered people from diverse backgrounds and walks of life, capturing and sharing their answers and personal stories with us. People who have achieved a level of excellence in their chosen pursuits and shine as an inspiration to those seeking to follow a similar path.
What better way to gain insight and guidance as you strive to know and define your life's purpose than to read the inspirational story of someone whose life experience and inspired direction resonates with yours?
This book offers a variety of shining examples of personal stories from people who have achieved success in discovering and pursuing their life's purpose. The revelation of identifying one (or more) narratives that are similar to yours is an empowering and reassuring experience and can help you recognize and validate your own path.
He did such an excellent job of choosing the 60+ people he interviewed for his book that I believe everyone can find at least one story that speaks to and inspires them. Given my interests and career pursuits that reach out in many different directions, I found a few of the mentors' stories that struck a resonant chord in me and took away some very sage lessons from others. As I continue ever forward on my path, I frequently find myself standing at a crossroads, looking at the diverging roads laid out before me by the varied callings that tug at me. I feel like reading this book is helping me "cut through the noise" and focus in on that which truly resonates as my life's path and purpose; where I am meant to focus my energy to make a contribution and a difference.
This book can be an essential aid in your journey toward self-transformation; helping you to perceive, define, refine and pursue your personal destiny. As Keith says in his introduction: "Whether you are searching for your purpose for the very first time, or you like rediscovering your purpose over and over again as you go through life, this is the book for you."
I offer a heartfelt "Thank You" to the author - I am very grateful that you brought this book into being!
