Product Description
It's Sunday afternoon and you're already dreading the inevitable Monday morning. You spend 50+ hours at a job you hate, only to come home too exhausted to pursue anything other than reality TV. Well, you are not alone: 87 percent of workers don't find meaning in their work and 80 percent believe their talents are not used. And there are consequences-whether or not we realize it, our resulting attitude impacts our health, our relationships, and our fundamental sense of happiness-but best-selling author Max Lucado has a cure. We are all unique individuals, created in God's image, with our own gifts, strengths and passions. In his winsome voice, Max will encourage you to explore your uniqueness, put it to work, and redefine your concept of career.

Finding Your Sweet Spot
Rating  (5)
Date: 2008-12-12
I buy this book five copies at a time. These are excellent gifts to people who find themselves at a crossroad in life. Whether graduating from high school, college, or experiencing a major life change which causes any of us to question what will we do with our lives. Max guides readers through a life inventory of what they have done to help them decide what they can do. In Max's unique pragmatic style, he employs the principles described by Dr. Arthur Miller in "Designed for Life" in a way that is easy to understand and fun to learn. This is a great book that I have read several times and found it helpful when I retired from the Army.

Be happy where you are

this book has a great lesson about being happy where you are. what I and my husband took from it is that although we may not be happy with our work, we need to realize that perhaps God has us there for a reason. We need to learn to see beyond the obvious. Look deeper. Then you learn to find satisfaction where you didn't before. That is a helpful lesson for today's society and way of life.

I found this audio book easy to listen to. There aren't confusing references or hard to follow language. This book simply tells you how to work to the best of your natural abilities and embrace your individuality while exercising your unique strengths.
The book gives information from the bible in everyday terms so that you are able to associate it, easily, to whatever it is you aspire to become in life. It is not an overwhelming lesson in bible verses just good information that you can put to use everyday.
