Questions that can help you discern your purpose,

This review is from: Five Wishes: How Answering One Simple Question Can Make Your Dreams Come True (Hardcover)
Jack Canfield recommended this book to his email list, and I bought it. I find this strategy of looking back on your life many years from now on your deathbed, and asking the right questions about your life to be instructive and valuable.Using the future to discern now, what if anything is missing from your life that would make it worthwhile, and take the necessary action to attain those important goals. The author shows how he discovered five important wishes for his life following a chance encounter at a party. Pursuing these wishes helped him resolve lifelong issues which were holding him back, particularly in love relationships. If it worked for him it could work for you. Particularly valuable is the idea of completing, described in chapter 2, and I particularly liked that he shares his sticking points and breakthroughs, and I could relate his experiences to my own dilemmas. You are probably wondering what value you can derive from this book, and what ideas it might give you that you can apply. How much would learning what would make your life satisfying be worth? If you are like me, the answer is worth a lot more than what Amazon is asking. If you find this review helpful, please click yes.

Five Wishes,
By Tami Brady "Whole Health" (Calgary, Canada) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME) (TOP 50 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Five Wishes: How Answering One Simple Question Can Make Your Dreams Come True (Hardcover)
One simple question completely changed Gay Hendricks life. What was the question? How did this amazing transformation take place?Five Wishes tells the story. The living changing event started out rather uneventfully enough. The author had committed himself to going to a party that he would have really liked to decline. The notion of sitting by the fire reading a good book seemed far more attractive than trying to create small talk all night. Fortunately, he did make it to the function because it became the stage of a very important conversation. He met a man who engaged him in "big talk" which involved one question. "...if you were on your deathbed... Was your life a complete success?" This one question then led to an exploration of what would have made the Gay Hendricks' life a success. He then had a place to begin making real changes. Five Wishes asks the question that we all unconsciously fixate on but never really spend any honest time working through. Really, we all have two choices. We can continue to be unhappy and bitter about all the things we don't have or we can gather the courage to make our lives resemble the life we had hoped to lead. What's your choice?

A Belated Thank You,
By
This review is from: Five Wishes: How Answering One Simple Question Can Make Your Dreams Come True (Hardcover)
This wonderful little book is based on a life-changing conversation that the author had with a man named Ed Steinbrecher. When I saw Ed's name, it rang a bell. Only then did I remember that in 1994 I also had a conversation with Ed. And yes, it was a life-changing experience for me, too. It took over a year for what Ed said to me to sink in, and for me to begin to fulfill a wish that had been on my mind for quite some time. And in the passing of that time, I totally forgot that it was Ed who first inspired me to live the life I wished to live -- which turned out to be as a spiritual teacher and author. So, Ed, I now offer you a much-belated, but no-less sincere, thank you. And, of course, I want to thank Gay Hendricks for writing this remarkable book and sharing Ed's question with the whole world. What a blessing this book is going to be for thousands of people who will finally be able to make their fondest dreams come true. Steven Lane Taylor, author of Row, Row, Row Your Boat: A Guide for Living Life in the Divine Flow.
