By Joseph Rodarick Law, New Holland Publishers, $27.99.
The title says it all: looking at the principles of happiness from a holistic perspective, one that includes family, career, spiritual growth and one’s purpose in life.
A genuine and intense student of spiritual life, Law adds merit by giving access to the ideas, thoughts and advice from some of the world’s top and most respected thinkers in diverse fields.
Here’s a powerful look at the refinement of timeless wisdom from great minds including Jack Canfield, Dr Edward de Bono, Marci Shimoff and Dr John Demartini.
An entrepreneur, investor, bestselling author, speaker and philanthropist, Law hopes the book may “serve as a pathway to help you live an ordinary life in an extraordinary way. This is your birthright, and it is possible for you to attain such a life!” It certainly may not have all the answers you need, but it will open you to new questions. “Through the application of the many principles in this book, you will feel happier, achieve more with less effort, and find deep inner peace without losing your effectiveness in the real world. You will wake up one day to realize you are no longer haunted by a sense of dread but are living a life inspired by purpose.
This all-inclusive standpoint includes fulfilling relationships, a rewarding career, spiritual growth and finding one’s purpose in life.”
Throughout recorded human history, many insightful teachers, thinkers and philosophers have explored the topic of finding purpose and living a life filled with happiness. These ideals, insights of spiritual wisdom, and higher perspectives are valid, but most of them were written thousands of years ago. How can we practically integrate these ancient teachings into the complexities of our modern, everyday lives?
To start Authentic Power and Greatness by living your life’s purpose, ponder and embrace this timeless wisdom:
“What lies behind you and what lies before you is nothing compared to what lies within you.”
