Share Your Mission: the Personal Thoughts of Twelve Great Americans with Mission Driven Lives, Vol 5

Mission Accomplished! This is the fifth volume in a series of books based on the international radio talk show Share Your Mission. This weekly interview program searches out not only celebrities, but individuals, previously unknown to the world, with messages you need to hear. Share Your Mission began in 1998 as a method of promoting personal happiness and success as an outreach of The Recovery Group. Here is the philosophy behind the program. There are four important questions that if you are able to answer, and then able to apply the answers to your life, will guarantee you true joy, happiness, contentment, and peace of mind. The questions: Who Am I? Where Did I Come From? What Am I Doing Here? and Where Am I Going When I'm Done? The third question is the one most closely associated with personal happiness in this life and therefore the one we explore on the radio show. I have found that to the degree a person has a mission in life, to the same degree is the person able to ignore the distractions of life (alcohol, tobacco, drugs, bad relationships, overeating, overspending, sexual compulsions, co-dependency, power, instant gratification, criminal behavior, and others). These distractions are the major cause of personal unhappiness in life and spawn a host of physical and psychological illnesses. I hope that the illustrations and examples provided by the talk show guests will motivate you the reader to search out your purpose for creation and to start pursuing your destiny.
