Book Review: "Who You Were Meant to Be"

Book Review: "Who You Were Meant to Be" (Author: Moshe Sharon)

Main Parts of the Book

This book is mainly divided up into 5 sections, which Sharon refers to as "Insights". The insights are as follows:

'First Insight - The Mission is Always Directed Towards Others
Second Insight - No One Will Perform Your Mission for You
Third Insight - Your Talents Hint at Your Mission
Fourth Insight - Even Failure Connects to Your Mission
Fifth Insight - The Mission Implies a Higher Source'

The next 3 sections consist of 3 stories, which are in order:
'The Story of a Messenger The Penny Dropped
The Story of a Messenger Who is Not Good at Anything
The Story of a Messenger From Egoism to Altruism'

You may already be able to tell just from the titles of these sections whether or not this book is attractive to you. The author insists that the book can be of help to everyone, no matter where they may be on their journey of finding their purpose.

Purpose of the Book

The author states the purpose of the book as four-fold:
"a. To help you connect to the idea of a mission.
b. To find out exactly what your mission is.
c. To translate the insights we discover in everyday reality.
d. To offer solutions for the fears that arise in some of you."

Many people do not believe that they have a mission in life, and if they do, they may have no clue what their mission is. This book will help you to at least consider the above purposes, and hopefully set you on your journey, or satisfy you in your work along your journey.

Is it for Me?

That depends. The book starts off with a strong emphasis on Kabbalah, Jewish, and Christian beliefs, stories, and leaders' quotes. The book in itself does not require that you are of any particular religious faith, but there are definitive spiritual undertones throughout the book. If you are closed-minded to spirituality and believe that religion serves no purpose in human life, then this book may not be for you. However, if you are open to the role that spirituality plays in the present and past development of humanity, you will likely benefit from the insights in this book.

My Favourite Part

My personal favourite part of this book is that it has personal exercises for you to fill out within the book. These exercises help to personalize the book, and I love books that have exercises like this, where you can think about how it applies to your specific life, and it encourages you to answer questions that you may or may not have though about before, and then apply it to your life.
