Do something different - make the shift now!
The Shift represents the major transition that takes place in every person's life. It is a shift away from being dominated by ego, accumulations, achievements, and approval . . . to feeling purposeful and meaningful every day.
As you read, you'll find that you are less caught up in the material world and that you are more inclined to connect with your true spiritual essence. Each chapter in this fascinating book concludes with ways to incorporate this material into your daily life.
The Shift? the book that was inspired by the movie of the same name?illustrates how and why to make the move from ambition to meaning.
As we contemplate leaving the morning of our life, where ego has played a commanding role, and entering the afternoon (and evening), where meaning and purpose replace ambition and struggle, we may encounter unexpected occurrences that accompany this new direction. It?s almost a universal law that we?ll experience a fall of some kind. Yet these falls or low points provide the energy we need to move away from ego and into a life of meaning and purpose.
The Shift doesn't mean that we lose our drive and ambition; it signifies that we become ambitious about something new. We make a commitment to living a life based on experiencing meaning and feeling purposeful, rather than a life based on never-ending demands and false promises that are the trademark of the ego's agenda.
