"If you want to be successful and live your dreams, do one thing.  You have to discover and uncover life purpose." Jonathan Figaro

This is an ebook written by 23-year old, Jonathan Figaro, from Brooklyn.  Don't let his tender age fool you.

Jonathan Figaro is indeed a great story-teller.  He has a casual and easy style of writing with a sense of humor that got me hooked from the beginning with his "Try and steal this and I will find you" threat. I just knew that I will have some fun here.

This is a self-help book, written with such great insight and wisdom, with doses of humor thrown in.  Never a dull moment. I couldn't take my eyes off the screen and eager to gulp it all quickly like a person thirsting for a cool quenching drink on a hot, summer day.

What are the six stupid things people do to mess up their lives?  Briefly:

1. Having a negative attitude.
2. Not believing in the possibilities and not believing in themselves.
3. Fear of failure and not taking action.
4. ...

Well, I have listed only three here so as not to spoil your fun.  You can read a sample of the story here just to have a taste of what I am talking about.

The author has weaved in many interesting and personal anecdotes in his writing with a list of "stupid" principles to follow.  The word "stupid" is not to be taken literally but as a way to grab your attention.  His imagination is refreshing.  This book is easy to read.  It has an honest message and simple truths.  The subject is serious but Jonathan has made it sooo cool!

In my humble opinion, this ebook is terrible ... terribly awesome!

Where Are You Going To?

Don't you think it would be strange, if not funny, if we get into a cab and didn't tell the cab driver where we are going to?

We couldn't ... because we didn't know where we want to go?

Just think about it for a moment.

Where do we get off?

When do we get off?

How do we know when we have arrived?

How does the cab driver even know where to drive to?

Imagine the same scenario when applied to our lives or to our marriage/relationship or organization.

People usually make extensive preparation for their wedding -- the date, the venue, the wedding dress, the wedding cake, people to invite, the honeymoon -- but fail to make extensive preparation for their marriage. I know all about this, because I was one of those people.

Having the same vision and mission to work towards in your relationship or organisation will help you to work things out in the many challenges that you will face together, working as a team, rather than each having their own agenda.

Knowing where you want to go and be in your life in the short term, medium term and long term will give you a clear vision of your future.

So, where are you going to?  Do you know?
