Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The Fire Starter Sessions is an apathy-kicking, integrity-infusing guide to defining success on your own terms.
As the creator of DanielleLaPorte.com--deemed "the best place online for kick-ass spirituality," Danielle LaPorte's straight-talk life-and-livelihood sermons have been read by over one million people. Bold but empathetic, she reframes popular self-help and success concepts:
: Life balance is a myth , and the pursuit of it is causing us more stress then the craving for balance itself.
: Being well-rounded is over-rated. When you focus on developing your true strengths, you enter your mastery zone.
: Screw your principles (they might be holding you back).
: We have ambition backwards. Getting clear on how you want to feel in your life + work is more important than setting goals . It's the most potent form of clarity that you can have, and it's what leads to true fulfillment.
Pt. 1: Mojo. Define yourself on your own terms ; Declare your superpowers ; The metrics of ease ; The strategy of desire -- Pt. 2: Moxie. The burning questions ; Facing forward ; Visioneering ; Fear + other tough stuff ; Comforting failure ; No, thank you. Yes, please -- Pt. 3: Results. Make stuff that feels good to make ; How you show up in the world ; Calling all sovereigns of time! ; Money : more is more, enough is plenty ; Supporting characters ; Be the giver ; Just start -- now ; Great, full ; The Sonic Fire playlist ; Spread the fire.
Combining motivational observations with practical question-and-answer entries, an empowering guide to personal success draws on the ideas of popular self-help concepts to address such topics as personal goals, pragmatism and courage.
