An invaluable guide and companion for anyone seeking greater meaning and purpose in life. A nominee for the Books for a Better Life award! As a pioneer in the field of life coaching, Laura Berman Fortgang has spent decades helping people figure out what they want to do with their lives. And so it was a bit of a surprise when a theme she heard repeatedly from clients emerged in her own thinking and would not be dismissed: work didn''t feel as "meaningful" to her as it once had. It was one of those big realizations one has from time to time. The funny thing was that it turned out the "solution(s)" to her problem were quite small... In The Little Book on Meaning Laura Berman Fortgang reveals that while our hunger for a meaningful life can be enormous, our desire for meaning is usually satiated by small, bite-size morsels of meaning-the small, almost incidental events or "achievements" that comprise the fabric of our lives. According to Fortgang, meaning is where you look for it, and through tenderly drawn stories from her own life and the lives of those around her, she shows readers how they too can peek around corners to discover the small elements of their lives that truly matter.

Being happy doesn''t have to be hard, says prominent personal coach Laura Berman Fortgang. We each possess an internal compass that expresses our individual wisdom and points to the things that would most fulfill us. Personal and professional satisfaction, Fortgang believes, comes from tapping into this wisdom. In Living Your Best Life, she offers ten tried-and-true strategies that help us to access our own inner knowledge to achieve what she calls a "best life"-a life that awaits all of us, in which gains come more easily because we''ve learned to honor our true desires and work with our individual talents rather than exhausting our energy on a traditional model of achievement. Her techniques focus on asking ourselves what we really want instead of frenetically trying to "have it all." We learn to ask questions that move us forward, not backward, to discover our own unique "lucrative purpose," and to design a "magnet" life plan that draws to us the more rewarding existence we deserve.

If you''re looking for job search advice, this book is not for you. If you want to know about writing a résumé, creating a cover letter, honing interview skills, or dressing for success, you''re in the wrong place. But if you''re willing to take charge of your career like never before, if you''re prepared to be responsible for the choices you make and have the guts to ask for what you really want, then get ready to take yourself to the top.

In this updated and expanded edition of Laura Berman Fortgang''s exemplary business/self-help book, readers will learn:

- how to leap out of that mid-career rut- how to completely and honestly assess your career''s progress- how to identify obstacles that keep you from reaching your goals- how to turn your back on what many people might call "success" to discover your true life calling

Great thinking + Great action = Extraordinary Results. The rules have changed. The old strategies of hard work, fitting in, and loyalty no longer guarantee a secure and shiny future. In this inspiring book, Laura B. Fortgang reveals that the most powerful currency today is a deep and unwavering awareness of one''s inherent worth and potential. The Prosperity Plan offers a simple and clear approach to building financial and emotional security. According to Fortgang, in order to obtain wealth and happiness we need to become receptive to all the world has in store for us. We must build lives outside of the "norm," always reaching for our own unique good versus some cookie- cutter version of what we thought our lives "should" or "could" be. A step-by-step guide to creating the circumstances by which great luck can find you, this book illustrates how to: *Recognize possibility *Create opportunity *Achieve financial and emotional well-being *Discover your true worth *Make more money by being more YOU *Master the art of making things happen The ten steps in The Prosperity Plan will show you how to beat the odds and prosper in ways you never dreamed possible!
