5.0 out of 5 stars Your mission is a discovery, not a creation . . ., 28 Mar 1999
By A Customer
. . . The Path will help you with the discovery process.

Close your eyes for just a moment and think of the word BLUE. What did you see? Most will see some shade of the color blue in their mind, or the sky, or water, or maybe even someone who is sad. The point is you did not see the letters BLUE. We do not think in words. We think in images and pictures. These images elicit our emotions, and where there is an emotional connection, action soon follows. In The Path, Laurie Beth will help you discover the imagery that is most powerful to you. The picture of what your Path in life is. Your mission is not a creation, but a powerful discovery of what is already inside of you, waiting to be expressed.

Like the needle of a compass being drawn to magnetic north, your heart will be drawn to your personal mission in life, pulling your actions into alignment.

As a Personal Leadership Coach I strongly recomend to my clients that they discover their personal mission. To help them with that process I highly recommend The Path.

4.0 out of 5 stars A soulful, non-intimidating approach to mission statements, 6 Jan 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Path: Creating Your Mission Statement for Work and Life (Hardcover)
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Working in an organization that helps people feel good about who they are and the work that they do - this book really hit home. The exercises were easy to understand and complete on my own. The book was concise and got to the point.

The stories made it easy to relate to. There are several biblical stories and references which I usually tend to shy away friend, but found that a lot of times, they were used because they illustrated a point perfectly.

Anyone interested in developing mission statements, personal or professional, can use this book as a great tool.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Vision part was a clear life changer for me, 16 Nov 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: The Path: Creating Your Mission Statement for Work and Life (Hardcover)
It is one thing to have goals, or even a mission. Maybe, however, it is too easy to get trapped into doing what we think we "should" do without first considering what is truly best for us. The vision element of this book encourages the reader to consider (borrowing from Frost) both what we need and what we love. As a result of thoughtful reading of this book it is not unreasonable to expect you will have a clearer sense of what delights you in life and how that can lead to fulfilling your needs and the needs of others around you.

One suggestion, read it first. Don't do the exercises. Let the book settle in then go back and do the exercises. A reader might get discouraged with "the work" and miss the point or never finish if the exercises are done on the first read. But, by all means, if the reading strikes a chord, do the work!
