Finding Your Own North Star - Martha Beck

New York Times bestselling author and Life Designs, Inc. creator Martha Beck shares her step-by-step program that will guide you to fulfill your own potential and create a joyful life.

In this book, you'll start by learning how to read the internal
compasses already built into your brain and body--and why you may have spent your
life ignoring their signals. As you become reacquainted with your own deepest desires,
you'll identify and repair any unconscious beliefs or unhealed emotional wounds that
may be blocking your progress.

This will change your life, but don't worry--although
every life is unique, major transformations have common elements, and Beck provides
a map that will guide you through your own life changes. You'll learn how to navigate
every stage, from the first flickering appearance of a new dream to the planning
and implementation of your own ideal life.

Based on Dr. Beck's work as a Harvard-trained
sociologist, research associate at Harvard Business School, instructor at Thunderbird
Business School, and especially on her experiences with her clients over the last
six years, Finding Your Own North Star offers thoroughly tested case studies, questionnaires,
and exercises to help you articulate your core desires and act on them to build a
more satisfying life.

"Explorers depend on the North Star when there are no other landmarks in
sight. The
same relationship exists between you and your right life,
the ultimate realization
of your potential for happiness. I believe
that a knowledge of that perfect life
sits inside you just as the North
Star sits in its unaltering spot." -- Martha Beck
