5.0 out of 5 stars
A life changing book,
By Bob Keown (bob.keown@hboc.com) (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Lemming Conspiracy: How to Redirect Your Life from Stress to Balance (Includes Bibliographical References) (Hardcover)
After reading the first few pages of TLC, I had to put it down for a moment. The authors had described the last three years of my life almost perfectly. I didn't put it down again for two hours. I'm a highly compensated information worker who "has it all" by most people's standards, but still feels unfulfilled. TLC showed me how to examine my talents and skills and use them more effectively to achieve what I really want from my life. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars
they got it right,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Lemming Conspiracy: How to Redirect Your Life from Stress to Balance (Includes Bibliographical References) (Hardcover)
I bought The Lemming Conspiracy because I liked the title. And I'm glad I did. No book has hit a greater nerve with me. I don't know how many times I have gone to work thinking that my real calling lay elsewhere. And after reading this book I was amazed at how all pervasive this feeling is: it got me thinking about how much happier we would all be if society had a different system for career placement. This book is a tremendously effective motivational tool. I am not a big fan of so called self help literature, they all come on so gung ho and hokey, as if they had all been written by Richard Simmons on Mescaline. The Lemming Conspiracy is an engaging and intelligent read, it does not talk down to you, and it is written with a passion that jumps from the page. I cannot reccommend this book highly enough.

Integrates the pieces one needs to develop a vision,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Lemming Conspiracy: How to Redirect Your Life from Stress to Balance (Includes Bibliographical References) (Hardcover)
I found this book well thought out as it first identifies and then helps the reader integrate all the pieces to the puzzle in creating a career and life vision. I have used this in a adult college course and all the students found the book both very helpful in understanding themselves and practical in working on the life/career pieces for themselves
