The Periodic Table of Character Traits: The Design Elements to Living your Best Life Now
Since the beginning of time, mankind has been on a tireless quest for the ultimate to discover who he is and why he exists. There are no two greater questions that we must all come face-to-face with in order to truly be alive. You can do what so many others (including me) have done and avoid these questions by engaging in things that don’t matter, assigning value to things that don’t last, and succumbing to the “natural order” in an attempt to make sense of it all. Or, you can look for true meaning in your life that cannot be found in things or even out there in another person.
This is a book that must be studied and not just read. It will force you to examine the character traits that have shaped you to leading the life you live and explains them into two Core and Destructive. Core are those traits that as we embrace and live out will begin to discover our true worth and purpose. Destructive are those traits that are like a cancer because they will destroy us and our relationships and therefore need to be eradicated - cut out.
A Final Review of each core character trait designed to force you to be honest with yourself An Elemental Check and Action plan that will ask you tough questions so you can check yourself against each core character trait and then take actionIt will make you take a hard look at yourself and the traits you think you possessIt will make you think and want to be betterDesign your lifeLive in the nowDiscover who you areDiscover why you exist

Highly recommend
This book is exactly what I needed and what I was looking for. I recently started to evaluate my life and determine my purpose and to live intentionally. I wanted to determine and structure what the best version of myself looks like. This book was exactly what I needed because it gave me the structure I needed to help understand the kind of person I want to be. I highly recommend this short read and look to read more by this author.

More than I expected
You definitely have to study this book. There’s a lot of thought provoking information that will make you uncomfortable, but that’s the whole point.
