The Suited Monk lives within all of us, an empowering new book about life purpose, true happiness, and self-discovery. In today’s society, many of us struggle to experience lasting happiness and contentment and find little purpose or fulfillment in our work and day-to-day lives. Modern society exerts a constant, subtle pressure to conform to the expectations of others, and to seek a version of success that is acceptable to the people around us but that does not necessarily meet our own most heartfelt needs and desires. Even if we manage to reach certain goals, the happiness they bring us rarely lasts long. Because of this dynamic, some of us suffer deeply and experience a huge gap between the life we really want, with a deep feeling of joy about who we truly are, and the reality of the life we actually have. By learning to synthesize your intuition, happiness, love, purpose, and life force (represented by your inner Monk) with the external world of success and achievement (represented by the Suit you wear), you will be able to close the gap and tap into the vast abundance that exists within you, both in your professional life and personal relationships. You will be able to minimize anxiety, stress, and problems caused by old, habitual ways of thinking and feeling. Raf's step-by-step guide—which includes The Life Journey Model® and GAP visual model, developed both from his personal experience and from time-honored teachings—will enable you to easily identify and discover your own life path and to explore pertinent self-questioning paradigms, such as "What is my purpose in life?" and "How can I live a truly fulfilling life and have a happy and satisfying career?"
