Lifeprints: Deciphering Your Life Purpose from Your Fingerprints
by Richard Unger

Much has been written about finding and living a life on purpose, and the last few years have seen the published literature on this topic grow. If you have been searching for your true and unique purpose in life, throw out those other books. Lifeprints is the only one you will need.

Author Richard Unger, founder of the International Institute of Hand Analysis, has devised a revolutionary and reliable method for identification of your true life purpose. Using his method, the answer to the question, “Why am I here?” is right at the tips of your fingers. Literally.

Your fingerprint patterns, unalterable and unchanging since 5 months prior to your birth, are coded in your DNA. Recent scientific research into our genetic makeup has revealed that many personality traits are also hardwired in your DNA. Unger’s Lifeprints method for using the fingerprint patterns to determine which of those traits are driving your search for meaning could not be simpler or more elegant.

Based on more than 25 years of research, Unger lays out his method in terms that are clear and easy to grasp. As simple as identifying which of the four basic fingerprint types you have, how many of each you have, and which fingers they appear on, Unger guides you step-by-step to determination of your unique life purpose. (See my post on “Student ID” for a sneak peak at one part of the equation.)

Unger affirms his technique with examples and stories of real people he has advised using his Lifeprints technique, and he does it with a wise and gentle humor that will ring true with anyone who has traveled the road towards self-awareness.

In addition to the how-to steps, Unger presents an “archetypal language” for understanding what it takes to get on track with your unique life purpose. Not just general advice, Unger offers specific skill requirements, checklists and formulas for the most common life purpose scenarios. He illustrates what it looks like to be living in mastery of your purpose as well how to know if you are still “in training.” In chapter five, Unger guides you in creating your own Life-Fulfillment Formula and provides exercises to help you deepen your understanding. As an added bonus, he includes case studies using the fingerprints of famous figures.

I studied the Lifeprints technique with Richard Unger over 15 years ago and have successfully used it to help hundreds of people in the quest for a meaningful life. With the publication of Lifeprints, Richard’s wit and wisdom is now available for all to experience.

If you’ve ever yearned for an “owner’s manual” for how to get the most out of life, run, don’t walk, to your local bookstore (or click here) to get your copy. Lifeprints is a blueprint for life.
