This is the best self-improvement book I've read in years. Discover True North really gets to the core of just how powerful our Inner Guidance System is if we will just take time to learn how to tap into it and apply the information we gain. I especially liked the exercises in this book. All were easy to use and implement, step-by-step. I'm recommending this book to all my friends and colleagues and plan to start a Discover True North Expedition and Study Group, as well. This book will help almost anyone to better focus on their personal and professional growth without abandoning others in the process.

The book has many highlights. I found the idea of the spiritual hunger the author identified throughout her travels to be thought provoking. I enjoyed the beliefs the author shared on our inner voice. Within that section I found parallels to the Appreciative Inquiry philosophy that I became acquainted with this past summer. The author's insights encourage people to be idealistic and strive to achieve their best possible selves while at the same time embracing the reality of where their own strengths lie. The book's time management thoughts are interesting to ponder. Other experts would benefit from considering the outlook on time that is expressed in this book. I agree with the Law of Physics described in the book. I think my favorite quote from the book is this one: "I believe that each of us has the ability to do something significant and great-something that can change the world for the better in some way, large or small." I couldn't agree with this more.

DISCOVER TRUE NORTH is definitely a masterpiece. It will assist any person willing to make our world a better place for those that follow.

The Author goes beyond inspiring a person to unleash their potential sources of energies and talents. Practical and action-driven programs are provided to help guide them.

Even if you have been doing "inner work" or personal development for years, you will want this book for your library. This book offers rich examples of people with challenges that we all face. Having trouble with focus? Low self-esteem? Want to fulfill your calling? Not only will you get great distinctions and navigational tools, you get a snapshot into the lives of real people you can relate to. For example, meet Jennifer and Margaret, two sisters who grew up in the same environment, yet experience different life results. Why is this possible? Read the book and work through the easy to use exercises. Use the book to lead a small group, or lend to a friend who is struggling. This book works as your own personal coach. Get the hard copy, and an extra to loan out. Great read with practical wisdom for your personal and professional life.

Anne Bruce really rolled up her sleeves and went to work on this one! She has transformed several years worth of her personal experiences, along with multitudes of studies and research done by world leaders in the fields of human behavior and motivation into this captivating inner guidance plan.
You will be inspired by her insights and musings, and will savor the pearls of wisdom throughout this guide! A favorite part of this book for me is the reference to Deepak Chopra's Law of Giving. One of the most powerful and thought provoking quotes by Maya Angelou is noted; "When you learn, teach. When you get, give." This quote portrays the true essence of this entire book. Anne Bruce doesn't just talk the talk - she walked the walk and gave us her best when she crafted Discover True North! How generous of her to share her toils with the making of this remarkable masterpiece.
I highly encourage anyone to take the personal journey through reading Discover True North. While basking in the personal enrichment from reading this book, just be prepared to answer to the higher callings you will undoubtedly receive.

Anne has the knowledge and ability to take your mind to places they've never gone before. This book will truly make you think in a more positive fashion and get you out of any rut you might be feeling yourself trapped. I hope everyone gets a chance to read this and take advantage of the opportunities that lie within this book.

"Discover True North" arrived this morning, and I feel like Anne is talking directly to me. The organization is brilliant; every concept is bite-sized and manageable. In some ways, I feel like this is the book Anne Bruce has been waiting to write all along. Her others, which I have read, were all parts of the big picture. "Discover True North" IS the big picture!
