Elsa Batica's reflections on the book, Serving People & Planet: In Mystery, Love and Gratitude
Written by Elsa Batica, corporate trainer at Diversity Council in St. Paul, Minnesota, and president and principal consultant at Batica and Associates:
"I read the book in less than twenty hours and could hardly put it down. It brought up so many memories and emotions for me. Autobiography is my favorite reading genre. I highly recommend Rob Work’s book.
"I also recommend to other readers to reflect on their own lives while they read it and afterwards. Through some powerful hands-on reflective questions and exercises in the book, you will get clear about some of your own gifts, but from a slightly unusual perspective – your own. It’s refreshing to find an author who invites readers to answer these questions.
"Like me, you might find yourself digging deeper into your unconscious to discover the path that you’ve been traveling and what could be waiting for you. You might find yourself with a more grounded and centered vision of your path and a belief that anything is possible. Dance lessons at an advanced age? Wow! Why haven’t I gone back to my voice lessons? Well, I have let self-doubt and self-judgment hold me back. I would very much like to learn more about how to tame the negative thoughts generated by my inner critic’s voice and jump more into the unknown. While I realize that my heart says that I have the power not only to transform my own life, but the lives of others as well, my rational mind doubts.
"I hope that readers will discover what the universe has in mind for them and how to bring it to life. Robertson’s book made me ask those many questions."
