Purpose: A Step-by-Step Guide to Finding Your Purpose and Making It Matter, by Gina Bianchini, lays down a framework for finding one's purpose, or as she says, purposes. It outlines how you can bring your purposes to life by building communities. Gina has divided the book into three parts: finding your purpose, making it a reality, and leveraging technology for growth. The book offers a detailed and a very clear framework for readers to work with. It simplifies the process of identifying, building, and expanding on one's purpose, using practical steps that are easy to follow. The book also encourages introspection and offers guidelines and exercises to help readers find meaningful answers about their life's purpose.

Among the numerous non-fiction books I've read, only a few have offered genuinely new and valuable insights, and this book is for sure one of them. Gina shares her knowledge from personal experience, and even if my perspective on communities differs from hers, reading this book has opened me up to a fresh outlook. Her words radiate hope while still keeping it real. She acknowledges that real life will get in the way, and you can certainly pause, but you must never stop.

However, I rate the book 4 out of 5 stars due to a few shortcomings. The language structure may be challenging for beginners, especially those whose first language isn't English or those who prefer lighter reads. Additionally, the initial 30+ pages feel stagnant, resembling more of an advertisement or autobiography rather than getting to the heart of the content. Similarly, the last 40+ pages become overly theoretical and repetitive, lacking informative value.

Overall, Gina presents a specific and detailed framework for anyone to discover and fulfill their purpose. Additionally, I have to say that I absolutely loved the editing of the book; it was flawless. The book is definitely worth the read and applying the approach despite the book's minor drawbacks.
