In his world renowned “What's My Purpose Life Mastery Course,” success

coach and best selling author Dr. Jim White teaches very specific

steps to define, implement and live your true purpose.

MONTEREY, California, January 20, 2009 - Over two million American

jobs vanished in 2008, the worst mass layoffs in over a third of a

century, as economic carnage spread even faster and the nation hurtled

toward what could be the hardest times since the Great Depression.

Underscoring the last few months are the dismaying signs of a rapidly

deteriorating economy: General Motors, B of A, and numerous other

brands announced yet more job cuts and "we have not seen the worst,"

according to President Elect Obama.

International Business Expert, Author, and Philanthropist, Dr. Jim

White says in the midst of the economic carnage, we have a huge

opportunity. Dr. White has over 35 years in International Business

experience. He has purchased, turned around, and sold 22 companies,

which he operated in 43 countries and generated in excess $1.8 billion

in revenue. In Dr. White’s best-selling book, What's My Purpose? A

Journey of Personal and Professional Growth and in his world renowned

“What’s My Purpose Life Mastery Course” he emphasizes the importance

of living a life on purpose and in alignment with your job.

According to White, purpose is something that exists innately within

each person. It's a statement backed up by one of the world's most

famous writers, psychiatrist Victor Frankl: "The meaning of our

existence is not invented by ourselves, but rather detected."

Ever since Frankl famously declared the discovery of purpose and

meaning to be paramount for individual happiness, the personal

development movement has been full steam ahead. What's less well-known

and more telling is that recent research backs up White's and Frankl's

assertion and adds urgency to the mandate that each person find and

live their purpose. One study, conducted at the University of Florida,

demonstrated that well-being, an absence of depression, and a healthy

attitude towards death all depend on a person's strong sense of

purpose.

“The real key to contentment and satisfaction is finding a purpose in

life,” said U of F Institute on Aging researcher Monika Ardelt in a

2001 article published in the University of Florida News.

With research and 20th century wisdom backing him up, White launched a

world wide movement toward purpose in June of 2008. The idea,

according to White, is that if hundreds of millions of people will

define, implement and live a life on purpose, the ripples will have a

noticeable impact on the well-being of the world.

“The movement encourages positive world change from the inside out

rather than from the outside in. In my experience, that's the only

lasting route to positive change,” White said. “Scientific studies are

showing that the personal benefits of finding one's life purpose

should be all the impetus needed to encourage millions of people to

commit to finding their lives' purpose and especially in this time of

economic challenge.”

White is inviting every person that has been laid off as a result of

the economic down turn to join him for a free 90 minute live class.
