Here is a treasury of advice, insight, and guidance for anyone trying to figure out what to do for his or her life’s work! This invaluable resource is sure to encourage and inspire anyone who wants a plan for attacking the task of starting or changing a career. It is relevant, comprehensive and practical. This book is exceptional. I’m loving it. And, honestly, you couldn’t have sent it to me at a better time because I’m trying to find that calling as we speak. I can personally think of quite a few people who would benefit from it. I'm rereading it, not because it’s hard to read or requires effort, but because it is making me think and feel and process. You're a rock star!!! I’d like to tell you more about my thoughts. "How to Launch Your Career..." may seem like basic knowledge and common sense, but it is so desperately needed and common sense isn't so common. It guides you through an enlightening process and brings you out on the other side with specific goals, more aware of yourself and more confident about your career choice.
