I believe fulfillment is a right and not a privilege. We are all entitled to wake up in the morning inspired to go to work, feel safe when we’re there and return home fulfilled at the end of the day. Achieving that fulfillment starts with understanding exactly WHY we do what we do. As Start With Why has spread around the world, countless readers have asked me the same question: How can I apply Start With Why to my career, team, company or nonprofit? Along with two of my colleagues, Peter Docker and David Mead, I created this hands-on, step-by-step guide to help you find your WHY.

A Great Start to Finding Your Why
Reviewed: 09-11-17
It takescourage to lay the 'How' on the table for the world to pick apart. A lesser team would have been thwarted by the challenge of deconstructing and communicating a very human journey into a roadmap that can help guide so many of us.
For me, the timing of this book was critical. As I read, it became clear that my difficulty in leaping into the unknown of my 'why' was because I couldn't see the 'how' ahead of me. Find Your Why gave me the confidence to clearly speak about the things I already knew and believed in, but handed quite figured out how to apply in a business environment.
If you already know that your 'Why' is helping others discover theirs, this book will give you the words you need to inspire them to start looking and the tools you need to help them discover it.
Thank you to the SWW team for having the courage lead and leap first.

Man’s Search for Meaning is the chilling yet inspirational story of Viktor Frankl’s struggle to hold on to hope during the unspeakable horrors of his years as a prisoner in Nazi concentration camps. Between 1942 and 1945 Frankl labored in four different camps, including Auschwitz, while his parents, brother, and pregnant wife perished. Based on his own experience and the experiences of those he treated in his practice, Frankl argues that we cannot avoid suffering, but we can choose how to cope with it, find meaning in it, and move forward with renewed purpose.

Read This if You're Very Sick and/or Thinking About Ending Your Life

- Man's Search for Meaning
- By: Viktor E. Frankl
- Narrated by: Simon Vance
One of the most belief affirming books of my life.
Reviewed: 02-25-17
What makes Dr. Frankl's book 'Man's Search for Meaning' so incredibly powerful is that it's strips the search for purpose and meaning down to skin and bone of truth. Through his personal and professional experiences he has created in words the foundation on which all other self-development can stand.

Simple, Quick, Timely, Contrarian Advice

- Rework
- By: Jason Fried, David Heinemeier Hansson
- Narrated by: Mike Chamberlain
Agreed. Disagreed. Discovered. Enjoyed.
Reviewed: 02-19-15
There is a lot of great advice and insight in here but not a lot of storytelling. I found myself nodding my head in agreement and laughing with contempt all within the same paragraph. At times it seemed that there was more of a focus on trying to upset an industry notion or a term than the reason behind it. Still a great thought provoking read.
