We all want to live a life that matters. We all want to reach our full potential. But too often we find ourselves overwhelmed by the day-to-day. Our big goals get pushed to the back burner - and then, more often than not, they get forgotten. New York Times best-selling author Michael Hyatt wants listeners to know that it doesn't have to be this way. In fact, he thinks that this is the year listeners can finally close the gap between reality and their dreams.

Nearly a quarter century ago Carter Cast seemed to have it all together: he had a first-class education, an all-American athletic career, and was a very bright and energetic rising star on the fast track at a Fortune 100 company, PepsiCo. But blissfully unaware of how negative perceptions were shaped, he was stunned when called into his boss's office, and told he was "unpromotable" because he was "obstinate", "resistant", and "insubordinate".

Story
Each of us has but one life to live on this Earth. What we do with it is our choice. Are we drifting through it as spectators, reacting to our circumstances when necessary and wondering just how we got to this point anyway? Or are we directing it, maximizing the joy and potential of every day, living with a purpose or mission in mind? Too many of us are doing the former - and our lives are slipping away one day at a time. But what if we treated life like the gift that it is? What if we lived each day as though it were part of a bigger picture, a plan?

Acuff knows the reason why many writers' novels go unfinished - it's the same reason why gyms are filled in the first week of January and empty by the end of the month and why people stop learning a new language once they get past the easy parts. It's not just that people lose momentum or get distracted. People give up on projects when they fail to live up to their own high expectations and decide that if they can't do something perfectly, they won't do it at all. If you're going to finish, you have to kill perfectionism.

For decades we've been told the key to prosperity is to look out for number one. But recent science shows that to achieve durable success, we need to be more than just achievers; we need to be compassionate achievers. New research in biology, neuroscience, and economics has found that compassion - recognizing a problem or caring about another's pain and making a commitment to help - not only improves others' lives; it can transform our own.

Adam Grant, Wharton organizational psychologist, went to the World Economic Forum in Davos, the epicenter of power, and sat down with thought leaders from around the world, to find out.

Buy the physical book
It's hard to implement without it. The Online resources aren't enough and hard to find. If you do listen online be sure to visit website to get bonus workbook. Awesome content! If you are not an evangelical Christian you just have to get past some of the life plan examples. The idea is solid no matter your faith.

Probably better in hard copy
A understood this book to not only be an inspiration/ motivation piece for people interested in building a life plan, but also a structured handbook to guide through building a life plan. For that aspect, it would be best to have a hard copy to be able to use it as a reference and to allow for exploring chapters more freely.

Is an instructional book on how to approach life planning. The method is simple to follow. I recommend everyone who do not have a life plan to read. Go to the book website to download the life planning template as you learn. Great to listen together with your spouse.

Begin with the End in Mind on Steroids
This is such a detailed and comprehensive way to begin with the end in mind. It's big and specific. You can't get more motivating than big & specific. It's a short book since it is focused on wanting you to apply the concepts and create your own life plan.

Game Changer!
I first learned about Michael Hyatt a few years ago when I listened to his podcast "At the Intersection of East & West" on Ancient Faith Radio. When I stumbled upon a few of his video content on YouTube about a week ago, I was instantly hooked. During one of his videos I was introduced to Daniel Harkavy and their book, Living Forward. My preferred method of learning is audio, so naturally I purchased the audiobook on Audible. Before I even finished listening to the book, which took less than a week, I already committed one full day to hammer out my Life Plan by reserving a cabin in Eastern Oregon. In fact as I type this review I just got back from my quick retreat and cannot wait to implement my plan of action.
I purchased the audiobook exactly 10 days ago. Had it not been for a number of other commitments I would have devoured the book in less than 2 days, including one full day to create my Life Plan. But my Life Plan is completed, and the process was extremely clear, thought provoking, and I was so inspired by this magnificent piece of work that I bought the book in print for my stepdad since that's his preferred learning method. I have also been broadcasting it on one of my social media platforms for people to get this book immediately, and commit to working through it in its entirety as well as creating their life plan.
I would recommend this book to anyone regardless of age or whenever they are in life's journey.
