What if the direction of your life is determined by where you choose to look?
What if becoming more like Jesus Christ begins with one simple change in what you choose to see?
During a motorcycle training course, a Utah Highway Patrol officer taught a principle that could save a rider's life: You go where you look.
Look toward the danger, and you risk steering into it. Look toward the path ahead, and you give yourself a better chance of reaching your destination.
What if that same principle could change the direction of your entire life, including who you become for eternity?
In You Go Where You Look, Scott Hicks explores a powerful gospel truth: What we consistently give our attention to influences what we think, what we love, how we act, and ultimately who we become.
When we spend our lives searching for reasons to be angry, suspicious, or discouraged, those habits can begin to shape us. But when we deliberately look for goodness, recognize the hand of God, and turn our attention toward Jesus Christ, something remarkable becomes possible.
We don't simply begin seeing the world differently.
Through the grace of Jesus Christ, we can actually begin becoming different people.
Drawing on scripture, the teachings of modern prophets, scientific research, and relatable experiences, Hicks shows how small, deliberate changes in attention can open the door to lasting spiritual growth.
This isn't a book about pretending life is perfect, ignoring suffering, or forcing yourself to think positively. It's about learning to recognize what is good and true without denying what is difficult, and allowing the Savior to transform your heart through daily discipleship.
Inside, you'll discover how to:
Train your attention toward Christ and recognize His influence in ordinary moments.
Break free from habitual negativity and cynicism without abandoning wisdom or discernment.
Find goodness in an imperfect world even when life brings disappointment, conflict, or pain.
Strengthen your faith by learning to recognize and respond to the Savior's invitations.
Develop greater gratitude, compassion, and forgiveness through practical choices.
Face uncertainty and spiritual questions while continuing to move toward Jesus Christ.
Learn to think celestial by making choices today that prepare you for the person you hope to become eternally.
The promise of the gospel is greater than simply learning to see the bright side of life. Through Christ's Atonement, we can experience a change of heart, develop holy desires, and gradually become more like our Heavenly Father and His Son.
You don't have to wait until eternity to begin becoming the person you hope to be.
Every day offers another opportunity to turn toward the Savior. Every act of faith, every honest prayer, every decision to recognize goodness can help change your direction.
Because the goal isn't simply to see Christ more clearly.
The goal is to follow Him, become more like Him, and one day find yourself at His feet.
You Go Where You Look is an invitation to begin that journey today.
