Summary

All of us have what it takes to make it in today's competitive and changing world. You may have doubted your ability to get the job done in the past, but something else may have been getting in the way of your success. The key to ultimate achievement has very little to do with your education or skill level. The secret to accomplishing great things is simple: Find and pursue the kind of work you are meant to do - your "purpose." No one said choosing your life's purpose would be easy. There are so many opportunities, it's a wonder anyone finds their true calling. While it may be difficult, understanding your life's real purpose will give you the power to have anything you want - anything at all. Once you figure out exactly what that is, getting there will be that much easier. So ask yourself: "What do I really want out of my life?"

Les Brown's exceptional new program, The Power of Purpose, will not only help you answer that question, it will also lead you step-by-step toward making each and every one of your dreams come true. Many of the world's greatest leaders were called failures, until they discovered their life purpose. When you choose an occupation that is truly compatible with your preferences, abilities, and unique personality, you will at last begin to understand the meaning of true happiness and personal success. The Power of Purpose will help you:

  • Experience the freedom and power of finding your life's work.
  • Focus and take action to pursue your greatness.
  • Measure and increase your self-motivation for ongoing success.
  • Guard against negative programming.
  • Live each day with integrity.
  • Separate what you've done from who you are.
  • Avoid people and situations that upset you.
  • Live in a spirit and attitude of gratitude.
  • Become a powerful presence in every area of your life.
  • And much, much more!

Brilliant Book

I loved listening to this very inspiring motivational speaker. He uses real life stories of many people including himself who through determination and belief reached their full potential . The author shows how we too can achieve our goals if we persist against the odds and stay focused we can make our own dreams come true .

Powerful lessons

A powerful lesson filled book, which resonated with me. A book however I do feel you could benefit from reading over and over, even if it's selective chapters to ensure the message is firmly a part of your beliefs.

Get out of my way.. My Why is coming through.

No matter where you are in life, there come a time when you need that reset and let's go. Less Brown has been an inspiration to a person who has constantly inspired him to be consistent and persistent with his journey in Broadcasting.
It was just a short mention of some material he listened to that sparked my interest in Les .
Now My Journey begins and let's see where we can go.
The stories are great in content and delivery. I will aspire to presenting my own journey in the future...

Thank you very much Les Brown.

I've been asking myself why I couldn't find this book before and now that I know about your books Les Brown, I'm really taking the lead of my life. Thank you very much. I love every passage of this book. I already repeat it 5 times and I know I can't have enough of it. 😄
