In a complex, multi-layered world, it’s more difficult than ever to get your voice heard and to accomplish your dreams. To stand out today, you need to cut through the clutter and get noticed. Making that happen means to focus on the one thing in your life that drives you, inspires your passion, and separates you from the pack.

For everyone who’s been pulled in different directions, born with multiple abilities, or just wondered what to do with their lives, this is the answer. Phil Cooke helps you not only discover that one big thing, but also teaches you the secrets of making an unforgettable impact with your life.

About this title

About the Author

Phil Cooke, a writer, speaker, and filmmaker, is changing the way business, church, and nonprofit leaders influence and engage the culture. Christianity Today calls him a “media guru.” His media company, Cooke Pictures, advises many of the largest and most effective churches and nonprofit organizations in the world, and his books and blog (at philcooke.com) are changing the way they tell their story.

Review

"Film and TV producer Phil Cooke reads his latest personal development book at a pace that sounds overwhelming at first but that ultimately settles into a good fit for his high-energy message. His speaking style has a confident tone that is convincingly urgent. Once the inspirational beginning of the audio runs its course, Cooke offers an array of accessible ideas on how to identify a single life direction that can express what invigorates us, what we enjoy doing most. A communication expert with Christian roots, Cooke aims this advice squarely at listeners with artistic, performance, or altruistic ambitions—people who often need help not just with narrowing their focus but also with balancing their lives and expressing their talents in ways that will be noticed by their target audience or customer base."
