The author combines the best of the life-readings of Edgar Cayce with current psychological theories to come up with an intriguing way to uncover your true purpose for being on this earth. It's not a "should I be a lawyer or a painter?" kind of book (though he gives you the tools to take it in that direction). It's more an uncovering of your talents and passions (using a variety of practical techniques--something for everyone!), and giving you the encouragement to figure out on your own the best way to use them, no matter what your life circumstances. The most helpful take-away for me was the caution to not quit your job, move to another city, or otherwise do something drastic, thinking that will help you live your purpose. But rather, to think outside the box, turn the present circumstances on their head, if need be, to see if there is a pearl within life as it is that will help bring you closer to purpose without disrupting those that are close to you and may depend on you financially or otherwise. One to buy for the personal bookshelf, and read again and again.

Slowest read. If there was an editor for this book, they did a terrible job. Go straight to about page 60, that's where it starts to get a little interesting.

Great book for everyone who's wondering what's their soul purpose and about our life in this world. ps: i was counting on having one more chapter about the new age. It's so interesting to read a vision about the time we are living.
