Book Review: The Ultimate Life by Jim Stovall

Last month I won a copy of The Ultimate Life by Jim Stovall. This is actually the sequel to a book called The Ultimate Gift. Now I hadn't heard of either of these books, but I beg your pardon as there are so many books out there, it is hard to keep up with them and I am not a best seller list watcher. Anyway, this book is a keeper and I am looking forward to getting the first book (and I have already put the movie made from the first book onto my Netflix list. This book is a book we could all use to help guide our lives. If everyone in the world learned to really appreciate the 12 gifts the world would be an awesome place to live.

Here are the 12 gifts:

The Gift of Work
The Gift of Money
The Gift of Friends
The Gift of Learning
The Gift of Problems
The Gift of Family
The Gift of Laughter
The Gift of Dreams
The Gift of Giving
The Gift of Gratitude
The Gift of a Day
The Gift of Love

In the first book, The Ultimate Gift, the reader gets to follow Jason Stevens through a year where he learns about these 12 gifts and how this learning changes him.

In the second book, The Ultimate Life, his learning is put to the test and the reader follows him through a year of putting what he has learned into practice. The book is inspiring and uplifting.

If you are looking for a life-changing book to read this year, I highly recommend these two books by Jim Stovall. Some of these gifts you may be aware of, some you may have overlooked for one reason or another. All of these gifts are available for everyone.
