Discovering Your Passion: The Path of the Spiritual Warrior (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781450040174)

The book "Discovering Your Passion: The Path of the Spiritual Warrior" is a result of a research grant Officer received as a professor at the U.S. Naval Academy in 1997. The research grant looked into the meaning of the modern day "warrior ethos". The book has been a work in progress over the past thirteen years. Officer has found that we have both a "warrior" and a "spiritual" side to our minds rather than logical and creative. The warrior side is interested in the bottom line, is quick to judge, and has a certain toughness. The spiritual side is focused on the process, forgiveness, and exudes calmness. The fusion of these two sides is called "The Path of the Spiritual Warrior". One without the other leaves a gap in the character of the person. In the past men have gravitated towards the warrior perspective while women focused on the spiritual side. It is important in today's day in age for both men and women to synchronize these two concepts together in order to be whole.

There are fifteen concepts which make up both sides of the spiritual warrior perspective including passion, goals, fear, calm, honest, effort, determination, "It will be done attitude", belief, competitive, courage, responsible, serve, awareness, and ethics. Each of these are crucial to true peace of mind. This book offers readers with a plan including an enclosed workbook of how to achieve this path. The process shows the person how to reach their full potential in a simple yet insightful way.
