Hello and welcome back Aluxers for another video that will greatly improve your life.
Today we’re taking a look at the best books to help you out when you feel disoriented and life and don’t know where to go; the best books on finding your passion.
The topic of finding your passion has become quite popular in recent decades,
because unlike in the past where your life’s purpose was determined by your circumstances, your family, or your village now you actually have options!
Tons of options.
If you don’t want to be a doctor, or a lawyer or an engineer, that’s totally fine, you literally have thousands of options to choose from.
Although with the revolution of A.I. a lot of ‘’old’’ jobs are disappearing, new types of jobs are popping up!
There will always be a never-ending list for you to choose from.
But, if you’re still in a thick fog searching for a light to guide you out and give your life meaning
then keep on watching because we’re about to check out the best books on finding your passion in the world.
Let's get started.
The best way to start a list like this is with a book that has ‘’awakening your life’s purpose’’ on the front cover.
The message that Tolle is trying to share with you, in this book, is that in order to live a more abundant life you must leave your ego at the door.
Our unhappiness, our anger, our sadness are all a result of not letting go of the ego.
Ego is the root of all dysfunction in our lives.
Once we release the ego we will awaken to a new path of consciousness that’ll lead us to fulfillment.
