The Angel Inside: Michelangelo's Secrets for Following Your Passion and Finding the Work You Love by Chris Widener

The break-out business parable that’s already sold more than 70,000 copies, The Angel Inside tells the story of a young man searching for meaning in his work and finding it in an unlikely place: the life and art of Michelangelo.
There will come a time when you must decide to lead the life someone else has chosen for you…or the life you want.

According to legend, when a young boy asked the great Renaissance artist Michelangelo why he was working so hard hitting the block of marble that would eventually become his greatest sculpture, David, the artist replied, “Young man, there is an angel inside this rock, and I am setting him free.” In The Angel Inside, the renowned consultant and career coach Chris Widener uses Michelangelo’s words to explore the hidden potential that exists within us all.

This is one of those books that you don't put down once you start reading it. They story draws you in and makes you want to turn the page to see what happends to the main character next. All the while you are learning some of lifes key lessons. Then at the very end they hit you with a little twist to make you go 'Hmmmmm..."

I loved this one so much I read it twice then gave it to my daughter to read - while she is not into the whole personal development scene as I am she gleened the books message and enjoyed it. I am sure that someday her mind will come back to that book's message and help her make even more positive choices.

Two Thumbs Way up from me on this one!
