Book Cover Design Brief

NOTE. I need the design in four days of posting this!

This will be the cover of my first book, GET ON PURPOSE -
alchemy in the real business world. The book explains defines what Purpose and Meaning is, and how to use it in business. I have included the first chapter to provide a background.

I want the core colours to be black and white, and use the colours Violet, Cerulean Blue Extra Pale (powder blue), Cadmium Lemon (flouro yellow). I plan on using this design as the basis for future books in the GET ON PURPOSE series, where the yellow is carried through but the violet and blue colours changing.

This is a spiritual business book without using any spiritual language. It is strongly masculine and direct in its nature.

What I am looking for is something Remarkable that captures my reader immediately. My reader is a seeker. He/she is an entrepreneur perhaps looking to setup a new venture and looking for new and better ways of doing things, or he/she may be a small/medium business owner perhaps bored looking for more meaning in personal and business life), or the corporate person who is looking to get out and do something new. Age 35-50.

This is a business book that introduces new concepts, such as Purpose. Although it is based on spiritual principals  it is using normal business language when explaining what Purpose is, and how businesses can identify it and use it to be more successful.

If there is a border between a self-help and a business book, this book sits close to the border but markedly on the business side.
