Why do we struggle to make the shift from intention to action? What is it that causes us to put off what matters most in favour of what matters least? Is it because we can’t? Or is it because we do not have a big enough reason to move us?As human beings, we have an unlimited potential to create change in the world and yet often we fail to take the simplest of steps. In his latest book, Gareth Morgan says that a lot of this is because we are unaware of the bigger purpose for our lives. Many of our frustrations are symptoms of the fact that we lack clarity about our purpose and our identity. Gareth helps us by asking a critical question: In what way, 500 years from now, will people be thankful that we were alive? In answering this, Gareth takes us on a seven-staged journey involving the following: - Speculating- Starting- Struggling- Surrendering- Sifting- Stretching- SteadyingGareth coaches us through each of these phases, helping us to understand how each one offers an opportunity for growth, even - perhaps especially - during negative moments. He inspires us by revealing how creating a lasting impact in our future depends on embracing these growth opportunities in the present. We all have the potential to make an impact that is history-making and world-changing. But if there are to be great changes through us, there must first be great changes in us.
