This book came to me at the right time. I am educated, sure, but I have no idea what I want to do with my life. Do I want to use that education? Or is there something else that is much more suited to my tastes. I am going through a quarter life crisis, no joke. It is awful!
This book was great because it really go me thinking and assessing where I am in life right now (career in academia) and what I am going to do with it or where I am going to go with it.
The biggest strength of this book by far is that it makes you think about yourself. It's like thinking with guidance.
I would recommend this book to everyone, at some point in their life or another. I really took away that you want to be an active participant in your job to enjoy it and this book helped me get to a place where I was thinking about what I could be passionate about and actively, enthusiastic about while making money.
Great Read.
