This review is from: Finding the Hat That Fits: How to Turn Your Heart's Desire Into Your Life's Work (Plume) (Mass Market Paperback)

This is the best book I have ever read to help people find their ideal career. The activites John Caple recommends are fun and extremely helpful at exposing what is most important in your life. If you are considering a career or life change, this book will allow you to look at all sides of the decision so that you may make the best choice. If you are despondent with your current life situation, this text will lead you on a course to improve your life and increase your happiness. After reading this book, I chose to embark on a career in teaching. It was the best decision I have ever made. I have given this book to several friends to help them overcome career impasses.
