Publisher's Summary

All of us have what it takes to make it in today's competitive and changing world. You may have doubted your ability to get the job done in the past, but something else may have been getting in the way of your success. The key to ultimate achievement has very little to do with your education or skill level. The secret to accomplishing great things is simple: Find and pursue the kind of work you are meant to do - your "purpose." No one said choosing your life's purpose would be easy. There are so many opportunities, it's a wonder anyone finds their true calling. While it may be difficult, understanding your life's real purpose will give you the power to have anything you want - anything at all. Once you figure out exactly what that is, getting there will be that much easier. So ask yourself: "What do I really want out of my life?"

Les Brown's exceptional new program, The Power of Purpose, will not only help you answer that question, it will also lead you step-by-step toward making each and every one of your dreams come true. Many of the world's greatest leaders were called failures, until they discovered their life purpose. When you choose an occupation that is truly compatible with your preferences, abilities, and unique personality, you will at last begin to understand the meaning of true happiness and personal success. The Power of Purpose will help you:

  • Experience the freedom and power of finding your life's work.
  • Focus and take action to pursue your greatness.
  • Measure and increase your self-motivation for ongoing success.
  • Guard against negative programming.
  • Live each day with integrity.
  • Separate what you've done from who you are.
  • Avoid people and situations that upset you.
  • Live in a spirit and attitude of gratitude.
  • Become a powerful presence in every area of your life.
  • And much, much more!

Always motivating!

I have listened to Les Brown for quite a while, and have finally taken the plunge to purchase the audio collection on Audible. I have not regretted my decision at all. I have listened through this entire audio collection at least 5 times in the past 5 weeks or so, and I always pick up little nuggets of information to focus on that I didn't hear/focus on previously.

The curation of this audio collection is rather clear and concise, and the transitions are easy to tell they are coming up. The only quibble about transitions, is that for 1 of them, the music tends to start really early towards the end of the talk and it seems to drag on.

The only other small item I didn't enjoy as much is the last chapter, as it was a 1-on-1 interview rather than a speech/talk to a group of people. I think this is just a preference thing, but I just skip over that chapter after I heard it once.

Thanks to #Audible1 for making this item available!

The Book I Never Realized I Needed

I’ve always watched Les Brown’s motivational videos on Social Media, however this audio book was more potent for me. It’s a collection of some of his best speeches, displaying wisdom, entertainment & humour in one book. Listened it a few times already, I’m so pumped. No regrets!

Best of 3 books

This book was my most favourite of Les Browns books. All of his books reflect on some of his stories and this was no exception. However I could relate more with this one somehow. Even though it was published in 2010, I found it fresher than his most recent publication. Always down-to-earth and relatable. Not shy to tell of the bad times as well as the good.

life changing Audio by the best Les Brown

It was truly the best audio ever done by Les Brown. It makes you become better as a person in terms of every aspect of your life. I started listening almost 3 years ago and my life has improved significantly.
I recommend to anyone who wants to discover their true potential in life.
