I haven't read this book in a longggggg time and to be honest I don't know why!! This book changes the way I look at life and how I can make the most of the dash on my future gravestone. I may not live to be a thousand years old, but my sage age will be up there. :)

This book lays out ways to take stock of the WAY you are living your life and offers observations on how to set restrictive beliefs behind.
We follow "Nick" through a series of experiences as he is guided to a clearer viewpoint.
I'm a little fuzzy on the details but I DID enjoy the journey. It contains a worksheet one can use to mark progress through the stages.

somewhat predictable but a good book for reading right after new years. it's inspiring in a very corporate america way -- no new ideas but gives you a new way to focus on them. though full of cliches, it's clean and quick.

An easy read that is fun, if somewhat predictable, and offers some nice little gems of wisdom to think about along the way. It would be a really good book to give to adolescents or possibly high school/college graduates to help them with thinking about their goals in life and what really matters.

Great book with an excellent theme. I won't give it away. I thought it was a kids book but ended up being more significant to an adult life.

If you have this book in your possession already, read it. It's fast, and it would be hard not to gain something from it. It's a schmaltzy, gimmicky approach to getting your personal ducks in a row and doing what you want to do. Livera is a professional motivational speaker, and that's how it comes across, in the Who Moved My Cheese genre.

I very nice "feel good" read. I knocked this out in an afternoon, and enjoyed it very much. The story is basically a 12 step program for the busy person. I would love to send this to many friends as a gift.

A very good friend of ours wrote this book and it is absolutely fantastic. (Although, I am a little bit biased, but it really is good.) It really helps the reader realize how precious our time and life is. It's a good book to reflect on.

Best self-help book I've read in a while. Cute story. Basic stuff that we tend to forget.
