Synopsis

"The North Star—Stella Polaris—is a fixed point that can always be used to figure out which way you're headed. Explorers and mariners can depend on Polaris when there are no other landmarks in sight. The same relationship exists between you and your right life, the ultimate realization of your potential for happiness. I believe that a knowledge of that perfect life sits inside you just as the North Star sits in its unaltering spot. You may think you're utterly lost, but brush away the leaves, wait for the clouds to clear, and you'll see your destiny shining as brightly as ever; the fixed point in the constantly changing constellations of your life." —Martha Beck

This book was not the one referenced, but I got it anyway. Generally, I find......more

This book is amazing! I started reading this book because I couldn't figure out why I wasn't happier in my life. This book offers simple exercises and steps to figure out your best direction.

Goodreads review by Susan on August 10, 2013

Thaaat's right! Five stars, jokers! I read this thing so dang slowly but it's because every page made me have so many THOUGHTS and also a few FEELINGS (but mostly THOUGHTS). Important points: 1. This book will be most useful to you if you feel a little lost, unsatisfied, or discontented. If you're ban......more

Goodreads review by Annie on April 10, 2019

I would skip Chapters 1-4. The introduction is slow. The metaphor of finding your north star is obvious. It isn't necessary to go into an explanation about Stella Polaris and how sailors find their way home by locating the North Star. Also, some of the stories might turn off readers. The author talk......more

Goodreads review by Zach on June 17, 2009

This book pleasantly surprised me. It was recommended on [URL not allowed], one of the blogs I like, but I was afraid it was going to be formless and non-specific. To the contrary, Ms. Beck is highly pragmatic and the book is focused on concrete steps you can take to make real c......more
