Description
By the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Inner Excellence, this book offers a transformational blueprint for building the life you long for.
Each one of us has a deep need for meaningful relationships, where love is unconditional and fully reliable, and where we can rest secure, with the deepest contentment, no matter what the circumstances around us.
In the chaos of everyday life, it's easy to lose sight of what's possible, of the life we were created for: a life lived with a love you can feel in your heart that enlivens every experience; everything you think, feel, and do. It's a life marked by courage and meaning. Each of us has a deep need for something that this world cannot fulfil, and we spend most of our lives searching for it.
Drawing on over 2,000 years of wisdom along with hard-won lessons from his own journey, bestselling author and performance coach Jim Murphy shares with you the path to a life of genuine peace, joy, and confidence so that you can live each day of your life with absolute fullness, free from anxiety and doubt.
You'll learn how to become your true self, grounded and connected to purpose and meaning. You'll experience the power of living in authentic relationship with yourself and with others. A life beyond your wildest dreams is available to you, one far beyond anything you have ever imagined ... your best possible life.
