Book Description
Finding one's purpose in life and fulfilling it is a desire we all share. Yet many of us are living the lives and dreams imposed upon us by our family, friends and society. Once we understand the fears, frustrations and loyalties that sabotage our dreams and best efforts at personal growth, we can free ourselves from doubt and defeat and find out what we really want to do with our lives. Who You Were Meant to Be explains how to use our inner guidance to find our most personal and energizing life purpose. Writing in a friendly, active style, psychologist Lindsay Gibson shows us how to get free of the misguided guilt and loyalty that confuse loving others with sacrificing oneself. We can undo self-defeating ideas and claim our right to happiness and autonomy in our life choices. Thanks to the author's clinical background, this book goes deep enough to address feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and the common fears that can bring self-actualization to a standstill. Dr. Gibson offers a unique blend of inspiration and pragmatic advice to people who have been reluctant to put themselves first in their own lives. Who You Were Meant to Be provides a practical road map out of old habits and shows how to forge a new path on which each of us can discover or recover our true purposes in life and become the people we want to be.

Lead Like You Were Meant To

Author: Rob McKinnon
Publisher: Ivey Books
ISBN: 9781735085005
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 312

Book Description
The best leaders keep learning new ways to grow. Every good leader shares a common trait: they want to keep getting better. But eventually, most encounter a setback-the limits of their own self-development. To overcome this, they must address their personal leadership DNA-the individual wiring that makes them naturally gravitate toward certain solutions and shy away from others. As a master leadership coach, Rob McKinnon knows that the most powerful and lasting growth starts from within. A leader must address how he or she thinks, feels, and acts, while also identifying their core beliefs. Until these dimensions are recognized and developed, leaders will continue to do things the same way they always have, and get the same results. Lead Like You Were Meant To helps overcome three critical roadblocks: leading too much on autopilot, leading with less than 100% of what the leader possesses, and failing to see the common link between their greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses. Witty tweets, quick-fix seminars, and "do it my way because it worked for me" books don't cut it for the personal, lasting growth that leaders want. Instead, high impact change begins with the customized inside-out self-leadership skills that McKinnon presents. Filled with real-life stories, powerful frameworks, and practical tools, this book offers comprehensive leadership development that endures.
