Book Cover & Preview Text
We all experience defining moments in our lives. They can be wonderfully positive experiences or they can be extremely unpleasant, even traumatic, events. In many cases they are neither awful nor awesome happenings - and might seem almost trivial by some measures - but they remain defining moments nonetheless.
What, then, is so special about a defining moment and what are the implications of such an event?
As you travel the road of life you are constantly presented with opportunities – a chance to slow down, speed up, turn a bend, pass through a dip or crest a hill - and along the way the road may widen or narrow, the surface may change and the outlook take on a new perspective.
Using the road and journey analogy, a defining moment can be compared to a major intersection or cross-roads where one is forced to stop, read the signpost, reflect and decide whether or not to follow a new route with different characteristics, different scenery and different experiences.
Defining moments involve critical decisions that you must make and that will shape the person you will become. Although these opportunities are presented to you (by life, God, source energy or the Universe - whichever you prefer) the critical decisions are for you to take, as you see fit, by exercising your free will.
If you are fearful of change and the ‘unknown’, the choice is a simple one – retain the status quo, stick to the road you’re on, don’t deviate unless forced to. If the new route looks appealing and you are capable of embracing change, you may find that it holds all manner of intriguing prospects, new and exciting opportunities and, occasionally perhaps, rather daunting challenges.
The rate of personal growth that we enjoy is directly proportional to the degree of variety that we experience, the number of new challenges that we take on, the new ‘places’ we visit and the degree of change that we willingly embrace.
Let me share with you one of the defining moments in my life. It certainly doesn’t rank as an earth shattering event – but it was to play a huge role in shaping my future.

About the Author
Bill Burridge is the owner of a life coach training company with a mission to bring personal freedom, confidence and growth to people from all walks of life in his adopted country, South Africa, where he lives, near Cape Town, with his wife and two children.
Bill is no stranger to change. After an early upbringing in England, followed by family emigration during the difficult pre-teen period, Bill was to graduate as a civil engineer and practice for six years before opting to change course. Armed with an MBA degree, Bill joined a multinational corporation and later returned to the land of his birth to pursue his career.
27 years after entering employment, Bill embarked on another sea change. He chose to forego his corporate career and return, with his family, to South Africa – and a life of self-employment – to pursue his passion of motivating and inspiring people.
