Recently I received a copy of a gorgeous new book by talented coach, speaker and author, Shannon Cassidy. Her latest masterpiece is called V.I.B.E – values, interests, beliefs and energy. I always enjoy hearing Shannon speak and we have shared clients, platforms and brainstormed projects together. She is someone I deeply admire; I love this book!
If you appreciate elegant, funky design you will also love the layout and high level of interaction with the book. So many tweetables in the book and the colors are stunning.
Values – what are your core principles? These are essential to life. As you know our organization focuses on helping our clients be more productive so they can create more significant moments in life that matter, this book helps you make decisions based on your values. The list of values for inspiration will challenge you.
Interests – what do you like to do? I loved Shannon’s question: what would you do if had an extra hour?
Beliefs – what do you believe about everything? About yourself? We enjoyed the activity in this part of completing the exercise ‘I am. .’ … it’s a great sentence to finish.
Energy – what is your energy source? In Folding Time™, we have a significant section in the book on how to leverage energy. Loved this reference to energy ‘without the right quantity, quality, focus and force of energy, we are compromised in any activity we undertake.’
‘Meaning is the movie you produce from your current circumstances. Create something worth watching,” says Shannon.
Do yourself a favor, get your hands on this great book, make a coffee, grab a pen and enjoy finding your V.I.B.E.
