Firstly, I would thank you to give this opportunity to review the Book “Purpose”. First thing which intuitively came into my mind when I was reading the 2nd Chapter of the book. In my understanding, which is indeed limited, the title of the book should be Vision or synonyms of the same. Reason being, the word 'purpose' is manifestation of need. But what if there is no need. Musicians like Mozart didn't compose his melody out of purpose but passion or vision.

The reason I did not give high ratings and gave 3 out of 5 or 2 out of 4 because, even with a brilliant start and great crescendo. As I read more and more, it became or at least started to behave like a self-help book like any other. Even though, very beautifully written, specially the first half.

In one line I would summarize, for those who haven't read much of the self-help books, it is a great book. But those who have read, for them the initial phase will be interesting, but later stages will be like any other books.
