PCM Recommended Reading: The Compass

Feeling like you're in a rut? Have you recently lost a loved one or a job? Is your life going through a major transition? Are you trying to refocus and discover what's truly important in life? I recently reviewed The Compass by John Spencer Ellis and Tammy Kling. Their book journeys its readers into finding their inner guidance system and directing them, right now, to live the best life possible. I avidly sped through the book and finished it within 3 days.

I found the book to be written in a very creative and captivating way - it wasn't too preachy and certainly kept my interest from chapter to chapter. In some ways, I found the book to be similiar to the bestseller, "Eat, Pray, Love," by Elizabeth Gilbert. I love the idea of main characters traveling the world to discover themselves.

The Compass is a life transformation novel that will guide you on a journey of self-discovery. At the core of The Compass are specific life lessons about belief systems, authenticity, and understanding who you really are in order to live out your destiny. Jonathan, the main character, escapes his suburban life after a tragedy that alters his existence and plans for the future. Numb and paralyzed by grief, Jonathan decides to journey across the globe in an effort to realign his inner compass.

This is a quick read and may provide you with some simple life lessons that change the way you live your life from day to day. Why not give it a try? PCM has been talking about good beach reads lately on our site - why not choose a book you can actually take something away from? At the end of the book, I especially enjoyed several pages of simple quotes that may inspire and provide a few valuable lessons!
