After reading this book I actually had a step-by-step plan to follow for changing my work life. The book is easy to read and has many examples and questions for the reader to answer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect!, March 28, 2009

By	donalyn (Maryland) - See all my reviews

I've skimmed several books like this; This guide is the only one that I've read all the way through and taken copious notes to plan my next steps. I plan on revisiting this book after my new consulting biz takes off, to make sure I've covered all the bases.
To address one comment's concern: I do think it would work for non-office jobs, not just corporate execs. Read for yourself. This Idiot's Guide is definitely not for idiot's. Excellent advice!

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this book........it changed my life!, January 15, 2009

By	IntriguedReader "IntriguedReader" (USA) - See all my reviews

I LOVED this book! I read it cover to cover twice and I am inspired...Jeff's plans and ideas are just plain flat out SMART and REAL. None of the mumbo-jumbo self-help business book stuff that never really says anything. Some of the ideas in here are ones I already do in running my store. But some of the other concepts and FRESH IDEAS he laid out on being more productive and making more money will push me farther...I'm kicking it into high gear.
