Book Description: You never know when it is going to happen -- when you will experience a moment that dramatically transforms your life. When you look back, often years later, you may see how a brief conversation or an insight you read in a book changed the entire course of your life.
Gay Hendricks had an extraordinary, life-altering experience during a conversation at a party. The gift he received in that meeting became his touchstone for creating the life of his dreams. Now, in this wonderful gem of a book, he passes on to all of us the pivotal insight he gained in that magic moment.
Could reading this book be one of those life-changing moments for you?
Five Wishes: How Answering One Simple Question Can Make Your Dreams Come True A very thought provoking book. It's a quick read but very powerful. I have enjoyed this book very much and plan to give this book to my friends and family as a gift.
Imagine Yourself on Your Deathbed If you were on your deathbed and you were asked, "Was your life a complete success?"
How would you answer this question? If your answer is that your life wasn't a complete success, what things would you wish had been different in your life?
This thought-provoking and soulful inquiry is the basis for "Five Wishes." Through this process, the author comes up with five wishes for things he would change in his life:
1. Lasting love 2. Completing 3. Writing from the heart 4. Feeling God 5. Savoring life
Each one of these wishes becomes goals by which to transform your life. This is an inspiring little book that covers a lot of territory.
You have to also read "Nexus: A Neo Novel" - a powerful story of love, compassion and transformation.
This could be life changing This little book has a very powerful, very simple, and life changing challenge. 5 Wishes....that's all. The first time I read this book, I made my list and felt like I was on top of the world for weeks. But the 5 Wishes I had listed weren't exactly what my heart said, they were what my mind said (and still I soared for weeks!). The second time I read over the book and made my list, my 5 wishes were authentic and have been very powerful for me. As someone who has read dozens of books trying to find the "authentic me", this one is my favorite. It is a very quick read, but don't let yourself get lost in the people Mr. Hendricks speaks of....get lost in yourself. I'm becoming the person I want to be now. I'm on the "right path". And this little book has provided me with the inspiration and desire to actually follow my heart. Thank you, Gay Hendricks!
WHAT DO YOU TRULY WISH FOR? How do you figure out what you truly wish for? What will give you meaning? This book suggests you answer those questions by looking backwards from your deathbed. The author encourages us to ask and re-ask the big questions. He provides five key questions to assess whether you are living a successful life now. He stresses the importance of continuing to ask and answer those fundamental questions in order to stay focused on whether your life is consistent with your answers. The author was prompted to write this book by a stranger who had asked him to imagine himself on his deathbed and to consider the question: "Was your life a complete success?" If not, "What would be the things you'd wish had happened that would have made it a success?" I think the perspective of pretending to be on one's deathbed and then look back is brilliant! This is a wonderful book - after you read it, you will continue to ponder its message. I recommend it along with a companion book for both body and mind, THE 3:00 PM SECRET: Live Slim and Strong, Live Your Dreams.
What are the priorities in your life? Fantastic book to help you consider what are the really important things in your life NOW - before it's too late. An easy-to-read, entertaining and thought provoking book about how to prioritise the things you feel you need to do,while you still have time. Don't leave it a day longer!
