"If you want to discover and live your purpose, read Nicholas Pearce's book. Not only will it inspire you to become who you were born to be—it will also will show you how." — Ken Blanchard, New York Times bestselling coauthor of The One Minute Manager®
This program includes a foreword read by Parker J. Palmer.
How to build a meaningful career with a moral center and a purpose in the world.
Some of the world's most successful companies—Google, Disney, Starbucks—are not simply profit-driven, but purpose-driven. They identify the purpose behind why they do what they do, and let their "why" drive what they do every day. Nicholas Pearce argues that we all should do the same: discover our "why" and commit to the journey of aligning our daily work with our life's work.,The Purpose Path is for people in any field who long to have more than just a job or a career, but a true vocation that allows them to connect their soul with their role. The Purpose Path is organized around five key questions:
What is success?
Who am I?
Why am I here?
Am I running the right race?
Am I running the race well?
Nicholas Pearce sits at the unconventional intersection of academia, business, and faith. With examples and advice, he shows how he and other people in a variety of fields and at different life stages have asked and answered these five questions in order to start, shape, or even radically change their careers.
Inspiring, thought-provoking, and practical, The Purpose Path is an essential audiobook for anyone who seeks the clarity and courage to advance their authentic life's work every day.

      In this fervent but insubstantial offering, pastor and executive consultant Pearce lays out a plan for getting “what every one of us wants—a life filled with purpose and meaning.” Arguing that most Americans’ careers are out of alignment with their vocations, he lays out a plan for demonstrating vocational courage and “building a life of significance and not just importance,” in part through understanding that vocation is both a blessing and responsibility, and that chasing money and fame without purpose will only lead to being “successful but not a success.” Using examples such as Barack Obama and, refreshingly, a proportionate number of women, Pearce walks readers through both putting vocational courage to work and helping others develop it. Readers may initially find his approach appealing, but those who don’t share Pearce’s Christian faith will likely find his frequent references to Jesus and God as the primary source of purpose, in a work not otherwise avowedly religious, off-putting. Though his presentation is earnest and enthusiastic, the content is skimpy and repetitive, falling short of Pearce’s lofty ambitions for his treatise. Agent: Giles Anderson, Anderson Literary.
