by Scott Perry (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.7 out of 5 stars 38 ratings
THIS ISN'T A SELF-HELP BOOK. IT'S A HELP OTHERS BOOK. You enhance your life most when you make a difference in the lives of others. That work is at the intersection of your values, talents, and tribe. It’s time to fly higher in an endeavor that makes a difference. Are you ready? IT'S TIME TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE Have you wasted enough time traveling the well-worn path of what’s expected? Are you done seeking a destination mapped out by the status quo? That map leads to where everyone else is headed. Do you want to settle for the tried and true, the ordinary, and the unremarkable? DRAW YOUR OWN MAP It’s time to embark on a voyage of discovery. Who are you? What are you good at? Where do you belong? Endeavor is a compass to help you draw your own map and a process to encourage you to step into your “what’s next” with integrity and intention. THE WHAT, WHO, AND PROMISE OF THE ENDEAVOR BOOK What's It For? Endeavor is a book about discovering your life's work. Finding fulfillment, prosperity, and meaning through making a difference. Who's It For? You're not defined by your role or job, but by your values and vocation. Cultivate excellence through work that matters. What's the Promise? The work you're meant to do is work you get to do. Work that's worth it. Endeavor helps you define "what's next" and step into it.* WHO IS SCOTT PERRY? Scott is a husband, father, teacher, and founder of Creative on Purpose. He coaches in Seth Godin's online programs and is the author of Endeavor. Scott asserts that excellence is cultivated through work that enhances the lives of others. He helps others step into "what's next" with curiosity, courage, and a commitment to make things better. Ready to make a difference? Endavor is a catalyst for tapping into your promise and developing your potential through work that's worth it. *Purchase of this title includes a free copy of The Endeavor Project Guidebook: A Companion Workbook for Endeavor, and a discount coupon for the companion online course.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Not your typical self-help questions
    Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2018
    Verified Purchase
    I've read my share of self-help books looking for what I want to do with my life, starting with What Color Is Your Parachute way back in the day. But I've never come across the unusual questions that Endeavor starts with: - What does it mean to be human? - What does it mean to be happy? - How can I be more of both?

    I was surprised to realize that when I took some time to reflect on each of the first two questions, I am already smack in the middle of my life's Endeavor. I realized that when I define what these things mean, I am already being human and being happy. How did this happen? I was certainly not happy in 2017, and I was barely surviving.

    Well, I'm lucky: I've been fortunate enough to benefit from some personal guidance from Scott earlier this year. His insightful and persistent questions - just like the ones he asks in this book - propelled me to discover, refine, and pursue my mission over the last several months. But if you can't get personal help from Scott, get this book. It's the next best thing.

    So now, months after benefiting from Scott's influence, I find myself being more "human" and more "happy" (by my definition) than I ever have before. And then, asking "how can I be more of both?" was a natural question to help me figure out how to amplify all the things I've started this year. This question alone, I suspect, is going to propel me to further heights in 2019 than I previously dreamed of.

    Get this book. It's succinct, universal, and encouraging. Skip the hundreds of pages of exercises and analysis in books like What Color Is My Parachute. You have the answer in you already, and this book will help you uncover it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best books I read in 2018!
    Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2019
    Verified Purchase
    Looking at a 'something to pursue" as an Endeavor is so fresh. I appreciate the way the author weaves so many elements of life into one's endeavors, showing the reader how to gauge the true value of what they are doing (or think they are doing) to reach goals and aspire to their dreams. From a business owner's view, I feel like I can look at what I"m doing differently. It's more than just a job or a business. It's an endeavor that can be the best thing that happens to me - and others. I recommend this easy to understand book for anyone who wonders what the heck they are doing with their life (and business).

    What a lovely book...Tears welled in the last chapter. For anyone who knows that they are here to do work that makes a difference, who believes that there is a purpose to their existence and loves contemplating what that might be... You'll love this book. Perhaps you have found your life's work, but know that you will never be done evaluating and growing and serving... You know who you are. Its not always easy to ask yourself the big questions, and harder yet to find the answers. This book helps :)

    This little book is a gem that will live alongside the likes of The War of Art on a bookshelf for years to come. If you're ready to make a leap into doing work that matters, or already doing so and need a little push, this book is a wonderful musing on the mindset and behaviors it will take to get you there. I'll be referring back to this book again when I am feeling sluggish in my own endeavor, and only wish I had read it sooner in my career!

    This is the perfect read for when you need a kind, patient, and no-BS coach to give you a loving, supportive kick in the pants. Great for fans of Seth Godin who need to figure out how to get from here to there, this book is a thoughtful and compassionate guide to help you break through excuses and rationalizations to do the work you suspect you might be on this planet to do.

    I know Scott from the altMBA.
    In his book "Endeavor", he provides us many very useful mindsets & tools that will help us thriving in our challenges.
    As Scott is a real "doer", you can be sure he tested all of them for himself and that all the content of the book is coming from the field.

    Scott Perry brings together many disparate philosophies into a guide that you can use to bring clarity to your next endeavour.

    It’s not easy starting a project anew so having a guide like this reminds you of what to consider as you decide on your trajectory.

    If you’re looking for a quick start guide on creating meangingful work that’s helps others, start right here.

    For Seth Godin’s fans like myself, this is an opportunity for you to fly close to the sun...reading the words of an altMBA coach who is intimately involved in the guidance of others.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A compass to navigate through life
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 20, 2018

    This book provides a concise and well written, go-to compass that aids navigation through our lives. It shows us how to go after what we want, and how we might end up with what fits our needs. Also, because our focus is on the value we provide to other people, this distracts us from our internal dialogue that often gets in our way. Scott knows his stuff and communicates with ease. A pleasure to read. Loved it.

There are no maps here, but instead it’s a truly valuable guide to constructing your own compass. Scott's generosity is on display, giving us all tools to live a truly generous life.
