My thoughts:

Need guide on how to improve yourself, health, relationships,  etc? How about changing jobs and questions about your finances? The book has all these topics discussed and the approach used by author is simple, therefore pretty easy to understand.


The book is divided into twelve chapters and the author ends every chapter with a summary. The best part, for me, was the guide on how to improve your career. The author provides cover letter, resume' sample and even sample questions used for job interview! I also enjoyed reading the guide on how to increase your income, eliminating debt and spending your money wisely. 


This is a great book to help you succeed in any area of endeavor.
