Book Description

June 17, 1998
A practical, proven, hands-on program for discovering and using the true values and inner power that are the keys to a better, happier life

What's the most important thing you will do in your lifetime? Make that first million? Raise a happy family? Find the cure for cancer? Each is a fine goal, but how do you know that it will bring you happiness?

Bill Cohen, creator and teacher of a popular course called Life Mapping, shows us how to achieve personal fulfillment in our lives. In an era when it seems that few people take responsibility for their own actions, this book asserts that only by embracing responsibility can we find vital, satisfying answers -- and goes on to demonstrate step by step a practical program for identifying and removing the conflicts that separate us from our true selves.Developed over sixteen years, Life Mapping is an effective technique for determining our real beliefs and principles and then matching them to appropriate goals that support rather than undermine the integrity and spiritual power that is inherent in everyone. The author guides us through the entire process of creating unique, individualized Life Maps based on our own natures. Each one is different; this is no cookie-cutter prescription. But it isn't hard and it has already helped thousands to plan and organize their lives better, and find the balance and satisfaction that seem so elusive in the modern world.

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Based on seminars he teaches, this first book from Cohen offers a simple technique for identifying beliefs, principles and goals, and planning activities and schedules to reach those goals. Claiming that we are all born with an "inner blueprint" for the life we are meant to live, Cohen offers Life Mapping as a "personal plan for reaching our unique destiny." He encourages readers to find their true purpose in life and to fulfill it by removing "inconsistencies in what we believe, the way we think, and ultimately in our behavior." However, clarifying one's core beliefs to begin with may be the most difficult task for many readers, and making lists seems to be Cohen's primary tool for such deep self-examination. Far too many pages of this slim volume are filled with sample lists and schedules that are likely to fall short of persuading seekers that enumerating personal joys can link them to universal beliefs and moral principles that will then "meld to form a list of goals." A slew of compelling personal stories, offering real-life examples of inner struggles and desirable payoffs, would probably have been much more helpful in motivating readers. Though based on a solid idea, there is ultimately not much more here than readers might find in any good Day Planner.
