Aspire

Discovering Your Purpose Through the Power of Words

By: Kevin Hall

Narrated by: Patrick Lawlor

Length: 5 hrs and 32 mins

Publisher's summary

We live our lives word by word - to build our relationships, to convey our points of view, to object to wrongs done to us or to others, to comfort our children and our friends. We also use the wrong words - sometimes unknowingly - and get ourselves into situations we'd rather not be in.

As Stephen R. Covey points out in his introduction: "Words sell and words repel; Words lead and words impede; Words heal and words kill."

Kevin Hall discovered the deeper power inherent in words after a fateful encounter with a wise shopkeeper in Vienna. When that led to an introduction to an esteemed etymologist residing in a senior home, Hall embarked on a project that changed his life, and has since changed the lives of thousands. Discover the eleven words - as well as the secret word - that when used correctly, can light your path to the lifelong success you deserve.

Critic reviews

"Just as I broke new ground in human development over twenty years ago by uncovering the habits that make for a meaningful and effective life, Kevin is breaking new ground by uncovering and revealing the true intent and meaning of the words that make up those habits." (Stephen R. Covey, best-selling author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People)

I can't recommend this book because I believe it is a must-read. if I have to recommend it then it would be put on the list but I must read it's something that will be read because it's required. it is a rich and rewarding experience during the entire book.

Make this book a part of your journey

Kevin Hall spoke at an event that I went to earlier this year. Talk about a person with the energy, Spirit and talent to inspire and set you on your right path. His book is written with authentic intentions that will help you grow and improve your life. It's not a book you will only read once. Thank you Kevin.

My favorite book

So glad to be able to incorporate the immense learning from this intensely fascinating and inspirational book into my everyday activities by getting it in audio format. I recommend this book to anyone and everyone.

Unbelievable!

If you skip this book, you are forfeiting a wealth of knowledge you can take anywhere. Please don't be the person who was too indifferent to choose THIS book!
