Review of Purpose
Posted: 08 Jul 2023, 00:17
[Following is a volunteer review of "Purpose" by Gina Bianchini.]
This book exceeded my expectations. The author, Gina Bianchini, really made me think that I could possibly have more than one purpose in life. Everyone has a purpose, whether they realise it or not, but she presents a step-by-step roadmap to achieving it while leaving no questions unanswered. She also teaches you how to apply your purpose to the world and build your physical and digital community.
She begins by giving you a peek into her early life and what brought her to discover her purpose. She encourages you to begin a daily ritual by asking yourself the same six questions everyday to discover what your purpose could be. Throughout the book, Gina includes many real life examples from her organisation which grounded the topic and made it much more relatable. She continues to refer to the previous real life examples as they progress through each new step she introduces us to which helped me to better envision the process and relate it to my own life.
I would rate this book at a four out of five stars only because I did not want to do the last step. This is through no fault of Gina, who plainly states it and expects it from some of her readers which she gleamed from her many years of teaching this topic in a live conference. Because Chapter 1 was considerably longer than the other chapters, I would have preferred if it had been divided into smaller sections to match the other chapter lengths and make getting through the first portion of the book easier.
There were no obvious typographical or grammatical errors that I detected. The book was carefully thought out and written, almost as if speaking directly to her. I recommend this book to everyone who is uncertain about their life’s purpose or how to take the initial step.
