Item Description...
Overview
Provides spiritual insights and practical advice as part of a program for fulfilling personal business goals and explains how to develop life-propelling action plans
Publishers Description
Laurie Beth Jones's first business bestseller, Jesus, CEO, made her the writer of choice for the large group of readers interested in bringing a spiritual dimension into their lives and business practices. In The Path, she again -- to great success -- combines powerful spiritual inspirations with sound, practical advice for helping individuals and the enterprises they lead to achieve their highest purposes and potentials.The Path is a complete guide to finding and fulfilling one's mission in life and business through the formulation of a succinct and focused plan. While many business and self-help bestsellers have stressed the importance of writing a mission statement, The Path is the only book to guide readers carefully through every step of the often arduous process. Beginning with a discussion of three key elements of a successful mission statement (a single sentence in length; simple enough for a twelve-year-old to understand; and something you could recite at gunpoint), Jones goes on to examine the concept of destiny, the questions to be asked in finding a mission, the process of fulfilling a mission, and the overcoming of perils like discouragement, distraction, and fear. The Path is essential reading for every business -- and every individual -- seeking a clearer and more powerful way in the world. |

 | Clear the Path to Your Life Mission Mar 4, 2008 |
| Recently, I purchased my 4th copy of The Path: Creating Your Mission Statement for Work and for Life to give away and constantly recommend it to friends. Through a process of choosing verbs, Laurie Beth Jones simplifies the process of clarifying and fine tuning a mission statement that applies not only work but one's entire life. A small group can use the same method to find an shared mission statement for their work together. Jones concludes with a study of the life of Nehemiah and relates it to the concept of being guided by a mission throughout one's lifetime. | | |  | Find Your Path! Mar 1, 2008 |
| This book is a wonderful tool for those hoping to have a life vision. If you don't have a vision for your life--read this book! | | | | Gain Clarity About Your Life Mission Jan 2, 2008 |
| This is a great book for gaining clarity about your life mission. The author understands why having a consistent context is a powerful element to bring to all that you do. I enjoy her succinct exercises and have used them with clients in the past. | | | | Listen up, confused people! :) Mar 14, 2007 |
I am only part-way through the book, but I give it a high rating because it's quality so far. It offers both theory and practicality, and a "how to", along with plenty of examples; everything good teaching should do.
Now, I noticed that people that gave this book fewer stars did so because they approached the title of the book assuming it was to create a mission statement for their BUSINESS or CORPORATION. But, I interpret "create a mission statement for work and life" as creating your INDIVIDUAL mission statement for your INDIVIDUAL work...not necessarily your company as a whole. I'm imagining that'd be a whole 'nother book perhaps with a more global-systems take in regards to companies. I do believe Laurie Beth Jones has several workshops a year and private consulting to help with that, though, if you check out her personal website. Anyhow, for individuals, this seems to have a lot of value to me. But, the exercises in this book do not lend themselves, nor do they seem to be created for "companies". Just a clarification. Great book so far. | | | | Life Changing! Oct 6, 2006 |
| Myself and three other friends read this book together in college and I can confidently say that it changes the entire direction of my life. Jones takes you through the necessary steps to write your mission statement. It was clear and easy. Once you know your mission statement decisions are so much easier to make, regarding the direction of your life. Does this task align with my overall mission or not? In the age of busyness and trying to constantly align our priorities, this is a very important starting point to this never-ending challenge. | | | Write your own review about The Path: Creating Your Mission Statement for Work and for Life
