In 7 minutes you will have a jumpstart on accessing and advancing your purpose. This fast read provides the essentials of helping you access and advance your purpose. Laura J. Stone has spent her twenty-five-year career helping executives and business leaders strategize about the next step. At a certain point, she realized that it wasn't just corporate employees or her business school students who could benefit from her insight. People of all backgrounds worry about their future and wonder about their purpose in life.
Most people also don't have time for a two-hundred-page book on personal transformation. Instead, Stone refined her suggestions down to the basics. Now, she is proud to present A Pocket Guide to Purpose. With bold illustrations and easy-to-understand advice and prompts, she has created a simple first step to planning your future and changing your life.
With A Pocket Guide to Purpose, you will learn to do the following:
- understand what you have to give the world
- identify your passion
- list your unique skills
- start planning your future
- enlist your friends and family to help you find your purpose
- enjoy the journey
Stone structures her book not as a linear narrative but as a cycle. The endpoint isn't the important part of the process. Stone encourages you to have fun with her guide and let it inspire you in all aspects of your life!
