Wk2 Reading - BE A CONTRIBUTION! Reposted. Friday's submission didn't post correctly

Our textbook, The Art of Possibility, Transforming Professional and Personal Life by Zander and Zander is very interesting and easy to read.  I am not a fan of self-help books, because I believe the only necessary self-help book is the Bible.  However, this book really makes sense when you take the time to read it, and think about the many levels of effects it offers in the advice it provides.  My favorite chapter so far is Chapter 4 entitled, "Being a Contribution". This chapter really puts into perspective how we limit ourselves and our accomplishments by the rules we emplace in our lives and our self-constraining walls.
Reading this chapter reminded me of many biblical principles and reminded me why I don't just try to "think outside the box", but I prefer to not get into the box in the first place.  Our contribution to life and the betterment of the human race and the universe is only restricted by our own self-doubt.  Changing our perspective on how we see ourselves contributing to life can open an endless amount of possibilities for making a difference.
I highly recommend reading this book.  It can open your eyes to how you are denying yourself the acknowledgement you need to see your God given gifts and use them to his Glory.
Below is an image of the book cover to help you easily find it in the bookstore.  Go get it, you will enjoy it!
