Review

"This book deals with not only theoretical ideas, but also outlines a practical route assisting in daily choices. Warmly recommended!" - Dr. Yehiel Harari, Author

"How can a man know that he had found his calling? When he applies his talents and strengths so that everything around him functions at its best; that his family gets the best of him and that without him, something is truly missing. This is exactly the reason why this book is so important!" - Rabbi Yuval HaCohen-Asherov, Kabbalah and Natural Medicine Lecturer

"If you want more from life, if you want to fulfill the potential in you and if you want to be an inspiration for your family and surroundings, this is the book for you!" - Dr. Lawyer Yaniv Zaid, International Specialist, Author of "Creative Marketing"

"When meeting this author, many pennies dropped for me. I am looking forward to reading the book over and over again" - Rotem Zisman-Cohen, Actress

"For me, the book was exciting, insightful and put my thoughts in order. This book is an exquisite gift!" - Ran Vered, Theater Actor

"I started the book as one person and finished it as a complete different one" - Dina Abramson, Journalist

From the Author

Years ago, I came across a line in a poem that caught my attention. It went something like this: "Slow down! This is poetry and you are reading it too fast!"
It's hard to believe, but the impact of this line was so powerful that I did exactly that in my life - slowed down! I started paying attention to people and found how each and every one, is an intriguing story. Later on, I studied various subjects having to do with the understanding of people: Psychology, Philosophy, Sociology,Anthropology, Criminology and then, Judaism in general and Kabbalah specifically. Once I had studied Life-Coaching, I understood that this is a practical tool which can help people find the way to leave an impact on the world and live meaningfully
When Life-Coaching tools are combined with the wisdom of the Torah, the effect can be "mind blowing" and enable real change.
I feel that helping people is an art that has no end. It is an art that can enable each and every one one of us to find his or her true calling and find our place in the world.
Once we achieve our potential, we can excel in what we choose to do.  We need to ask ourselves one question: "If you had all the time, all the money and all the abilities in the world, who would you like to be?"

My personal favourite part of this book is that it has personal exercises for you to fill out within the book. These exercises help to personalize the book, and I love books that have exercises like this, where you can think about how it applies to your specific life, and it encourages you to answer questions that you may or may not have though about before, and then apply it to your life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not another motivational self-help book
Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2019

When I first picked this up, I thought: oh, no, another motivational self-help book about daring to dream and achieving your goals, as if it's THAT easy. But as I read on, I realized this wasn't a book full of empty lies like most of the books of this "genre" are. Sharon really brings a new perspective, with goals presented as missions. I really loved the exercises at the end of each chapter that really helped bring the message home. Sharon writes really fluently and it's incredibly easy and enoyable to follow. Couldn't recommend it enough.

I liked the templates that urged the reader to dig a little deeper within to narrow down a possible individual mission. The structure of the book is a little unorthodox, but offers relatability. I grew tiresome of the interviews towards the end.

5.0 out of 5 stars Imparting knowledge, personal experience and wisdom in a gentle and generous way.
Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2019
I really enjoyed reading this book. WHO YOU WERE MEANT TO BE, is a very well written life improvement book. This book is intelligent, wise and packed to the rafters with practical common-sense advice. It becomes very obvious as you read through this page turner that the author is imparting his wisdom and understanding as to what happiness and success really means. It’s an excellent guide for putting things into perspective.

Profound thoughts are explained here in the simplest of terms. That’s all I can say about this book. It is difficult to write a more objective review because the impact the author will have on you will make you see life and its problems in a wise and practical way. The book should NOT be read – it should be absorbed and reflected upon.

This book has helped me clarify my thinking, process my feelings, and make better decisions. If you are you ready to stop drifting and design a life you love, this read with help you on your journey. The author has put his heart in the pages of this book and will encourage and give hope to the reader. So many wonderful and courageous people share their experiences through books, and I thank this author for sharing his.

The overall tone was simply imparting knowledge, personal experience and wisdom in a gentle and generous way. His words will help to better equip you to interpret and handle life in a whole new way, which in turn will bring peace, love and joy into your life. If you are looking for inspiration and encouragement in the face of serious issues, this would come highly recommended from me.

No matter what your situation is today, this book will put you on the right path to better things. I’ve been around the block a few times myself and even I found this read to be very insightful. This wonderful new book will show you how to properly tune into life and the simple rules you must follow to achieve this. This by far is one of the best Self-Improvement books I’ve read in a long time. The author must be commended for his time and effort for producing such an insightful book. Also, the writing style is friendly which makes for an enjoyable read.

WHO YOU WERE MEANT TO BE is a wonderful read that will leave you feeling like a better person for having read it. It’s an impressive work for author Moshe Sharon and I’ll certainly be looking forward to reading more from him in the future. I would highly recommend this perceptive and intuitive read. A well-deserved five stars from me.

I still didn't find the answers I was looking for. It did however get me to ask myself more questions. But I'm still searching for what I was meant to be. Overall I think it's a good book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Manual for Reconsidering Your Life
Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2019
Even if you don't practice Judaism, like I don't, you will find this book very interesting and, above all, very practical. And I really do like practical books. The world is flooded with so many books with theories about how we should live a better life, but most of them I didn't find applicable in real life. But this book, this is something completely different.
I started reading skeptically, as always when I start to read about "how to improve your life" books. But soon I found myself totally into the author's idea of "mission". At first, it sounded pretentious, but page by page, I realized that "mission" is a pretty good term to describe your life goal.
The book is easy to read, there are tons of examples from real life, there is also a summary on the end of each chapter and exercise too! The author really thought about everything and gave his best to show how his theory work in practice, which makes this book so special.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not for me
Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2020
This book has an interesting premise, but the execution was lackluster. The author seems to think he has stumbled upon some profound insights about the human condition, but instead delivers a lot of religiosity and unhelpful questions meant to bring introspection that seems to fail. Of course, I am not the target audience for this book, as I am not a religious or spiritual person, so perhaps someone who is would enjoy this book more than I.
