About
What is your purpose in life? Do you have a goal for your life? If you don’t have a goal, you might want to consider the goal that is the basis of this workbook. This workbook is based on the idea that the best goal in life anyone can have is to love and be loved. Love is defined as the act of caring, for the purpose of creating happiness and success. There are three basic types of love: self-love, love of another, and social love. The assignments in this workbook are all about self-love, love of another and social love. You will probably notice that there are assignments that deal directly with love and relationships. It will be obvious how these assignments help you reach your life goal of loving better. There are other assignments in this workbook that do not look like they are about love. For example, there are assignments about being responsible for managing your time. You might wonder how these articles are about love. The answer is easy. Love is an action. Sure, love might start with a feeling. But until it is expressed, it is an idea waiting to happen. The assignments that don’t seem directly related to love are indirectly related to love – these assignments help you take care of personal matters that might interfere with your ability to love. Please be aware that if you are expecting flowery, mushy, romantic assignments on love, you won't find them in this workbook. In this workbook, love is defined as an action with the specific goal of creating something: happiness and success. Love takes a lot of work. It takes a lot of hard work. This workbook is a blueprint for all the hard work you can do to put more love in your life. Follow the blueprint and you can be more happy and successful. .
