My sense of purpose

I believe that work holds the potential of being a great experience in our lives, even a blessing a source of meaning and purpose as well as the way we earn a living. Your work can be about giving something good of yourself, a way you express your innate talents which results in a better sense of connectedness with yourself, others and life. Work can be both good for you and that it produces happiness and enables you to fulfilment yourself. Work is such an important part of your life and not to find your own unique talents and abilities is a waste of your precious energy. Great work can even be a spiritual experience and a great blessing.

Unfortunately many of us didn’t grow up with that idea about work, but I love helping you re-imagine what your work could be. 

I love helping people find the work they were born for. I want to live in a world where people love what they do for their living and I am doing my bit to help that happen. I spent many years doing work that I didn't enjoy and that wasn't really me. I didn't follow my calling and vocation when I was younger, and only did in my late twenties when I had become successful but unhappy selling computers to Japanese banks in the City of London. I started to listen to and follow my own heart and after much soul searching I got the courage to quit. Gradually I built a business helping other people follow their hearts and be true to themselves. I started to write and got a publishing deal and my first book The Work We Were Born To Do came out in 1999 and has become a best seller.
Today I have written five books and love running my own successful business as a writer, coach, speaker and broadcaster, all on the importance of finding your work. I have been blessed to be invited to many countries to speak and run workshops.

For me a large part of the journey has been about facing my own fears and gradually liberating myself from many of the limiting ideas and attitudes I grew up with. I am a man on a mission - but I am not a missionary. I simply love helping you discover the work that would make you happy, and then succeed in it - whether you want to be employed or create your own business and becoming more entrepreneurial.

i found your website inspirational i myself followed the wrong path due to overbearing parents and my need to please them after a breakdown and now in my 4th year of recovery am learning to be true to myself and am just starting this journey i was wondering if there was any tips you could give me as you probably know what it feels like when facing your fears and this can be somewhat overwhelming at times

look forward to your reply thank you

"...turn them into helpful educational products for people who’s love to know what you know."

Dear Nick, you need to work on your English or get your work proofed.
"...who'd love to know.." A bit sloppy I'm afraid

Dear Nick,
Well its been about 9 years since I saw you in a small seminar somewhere in Reading. Since then Ive come a long way, left the corporate world, trained as coach then as an actress and now following in your footsteps as the founder of Wealthbabes where I get to inspire people everyday! I followed most of your advice from that day and also lots from your first Book. Just wanted to say thanks and love your website and products. I may join the infopreneur course at some stage and have signed up for the newsletter! :) Warmest regards Amanda Steadamn
