A book every TCK should read

I'm coming to the end of another really great read. The book is called "What Should I Do with My Life?" by PO BRONSON

Most of us TCKs believe that we are unique and have the hardest time of anyone trying to decide what to do with our lives. While the challenge is before us of what we will make of our lives, it is certainly not exclusively our struggle. Those who have not left their country's shores also cry to the heavens for purpose, vision and calling.

PO Bronson crisscrossed the USA talking to hundreds of individuals(over 600) that were struggling to listen to and find their own voices. I think this is the fundamental question of our generation. What should I do with my life? is at the heart of discovering who we really are.

We need to peel away the maze of external expectations that may have made us great adapters (each time we made a cultural transition we were trying to figure what expectations we should be looking for and adapting too) but have made us loose sight of true selves.

When was the last time you took inventory of who you are?
Do you recognize and like what you see? It may take a while to strip all the layers of cover off to get to know yourself again. That is OK. I challenge you to start down the road of self discovery. I was in survival mode most of my TCK childhood and carried some of those ways of living into adulthood. I'd avoided a lot of my own needs to please the expectations or my perceived expectations from others.When I started to ask myself what I really wanted and needed it wasn't easy but it has been so worth it.

PO BRONSON'S book has been another encouragement to me to continue to ask and seek out my unique voice in the midst of my TCK identity.

I encourage you to find yours.
