Life's tragic moments can definitely leave an enormous impact on someone's life, and giving up seems to be the best choice, but even the worst of times can be a stepping-stone toward something great. It's a matter of how you face your trials and apply it to whatever you do best in life and keep working on it. When you face your trials positively, blessings will surely come. It's not a matter of when, but it's the attitude itself that creates a bundle of joy around you. Being patient, determined, and willing are the keys to getting there, but life is also worthless without the power of faith. Believing in something bigger than yourself is your biggest ally in life, and it makes all the difference every single day, and don't ever be discouraged during the early disappointments, because it's part of the long process that'll eventually become your biggest success in life. Everything is based on comparison, and every demand from your trials can always be turned as your work ethic later on. It's the inspiration that was gained from the fight that'll motivate you to get better and better with whatever your passion is in life. Always be inspired in every trial you face, for these are stepping-stones for a higher purpose.

This poetry book is all about the journey of a soul in a human form. The purpose of our birth is not to taste success and enjoy materialistic gains.

The more a soul goes through experiences and hardships, the more refined and evolved it becomes. So, all the stages in a human life such as birth, youth and old age have been covered in this book.

The foundation of emotional intelligence is self- awareness. How do you learn to become more self-aware? The Journey Called YOU takes the reader on a journey into the world of self-awareness and self-wonder. It shows you how to discover yourself, to know yourself better, to accept yourself without judgment, and to make decisions that honor the highest form of you. In the end you feel more confident and grounded in yourself enabling you to be more authentic, manage yourself and your emotions more effectively, and lead others more assertively. There is as much to wonder about within you as there is in the world outside of you. Most of us look outside ourselves to find the answers. We look for pleasure in chasing goals and trying to accumulate stuff under the illusion that collecting things is what life is all about. We spend our time either berating and harshly judging ourselves or comparing ourselves to others to determine our successfulness based on some predetermined idea of what success is supposed to look like without really considering our own answers. In this book, you will learn how to discover your true nature and unleash the greatness within you. You will learn how to release yourself from the limiting beliefs and obstacles that hold you back from being all that is possible for you to become. You will learn how to create a vision for success and liberate yourself from the rules imposed by society and others so that you can make your own rules about how to live your life. And you will learn how to be authentically you, how to come to a place where you feel grounded in being you so that you feel comfortable in your own skin. You feel good about being you, you enjoy your life, and feel confident about the choices you make. As you increase your self-awareness, you access the power of choice and are better able to manage yourself and effectively lead others. This book shows you how to live a life that empowers you to be who you really are. A mixture of teaching tales, coaching tips, journaling exercises, and narrative divided into eight chapters, this eloquently written, easy-to-read book is designed to help you understand and accept yourself so you can make decisions every day that move you closer to the happy and fulfilled life you desire. You will learn how to use your personal power to free yourself to be you. After all, as Julie points out, "You are the most important person in your life! Without you, what do you have?"

An inspiring guide to finding your life’s purpose—what spiritual teachers call dharma—through mindfulness and self-exploration. Stephen Cope says that in order to have a fulfilling life you must discover the deep purpose hidden at the very core of your self. The secret to unlocking this mystery, he asserts, can be found in the pages of a two-thousand-year-old spiritual classic called the Bhagavad Gita—an ancient allegory about the path to dharma, told through a timeless dialogue between the fabled archer, Arjuna, and his divine mentor, Krishna. Cope takes readers on a step-by-step tour of this revered tale and highlights well-known Western lives that embody its central principles—including such luminaries as Jane Goodall, Walt Whitman, Susan B. Anthony, John Keats, and Harriet Tubman, along with stories of ordinary people as well. If you’re feeling lost in your own life’s journey, The Great Work of Your Life may help you to find and to embrace your true calling. Praise for The Great Work of Your Life “Keep a pen and paper handy as you read this remarkable book: It’s like an owner’s manual for the soul.”—Dani Shapiro, author of Devotion “A masterwork . . . You’ll find inspiration in these pages. You’ll gain a better appreciation of divine guidance and perhaps even understand how you might better hear it in your own life.”—Yoga Journal “I am moved and inspired by this book, the clarity and beauty of the lives lived in it, and the timeless dharma it teaches.”—Jack Kornfield, author of A Path with Heart “A rich source of contemplation and inspiration [that] encourages readers . . . to discover and fully pursue their inner self’s calling.”—Publishers Weekly “Fabulous . . . If you have ever wondered what your purpose is, this book is a great guide to help you on your path.”—YogaHara
