5.0 out of 5 stars Taking Charge When You're Not in Control, May 31, 2000

This review is from: Taking Charge When You're Not in Control (Hardcover)
I had the privilege of meeting Dr. Wiklund after she gave a keynote speech at an advising conference in California. Even though I don't buy "self-help" books anymore, I spontaneously bought this one "for the office staff", I thought to myself. She was there at the table, a woman with great magnetic charm and compassion, and we chatted for a moment. I left with the feeling of a subtle "blessing" for having come into contact with her. After I returned home from the conference, I picked the book up to give it a glance or two before taking it to the office. I could not put it down! I cannot think of anyone who would not gain a greater insight into human relations and personal experience by reading this book. A must.

5.0 out of 5 stars A life line when you need it most!, April 12, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Taking Charge When You're Not in Control (Hardcover)
Dr. Wiklund takes a very practical approach to dealing with things that go wrong in life. Her thoughts about how people react emotionally to distressing life events and crises are right on target. As I read many parts of the book I found myself thinking, "YES, that's what's going on here." Then, she follows with useful ways to "take charge" of the situation.

The book was released right before I hit a major life crisis. A friend suggested I get Dr. Wiklund's book. Within 24 hours, I read it and started getting things more on track. Without Dr. Wiklund's insights and suggestions, I don't know how I would have managed through this situation.

Thank you, Dr. Wiklund, for a very powerful book!

By A Customer
This review is from: Taking Charge When You're Not in Control (Hardcover)
Awesome and on target! Just the right amount of motivation I needed to take charge of my own direction in life. The authors ability to incorporate real life stories with the content made it easy to understand and apply to personal situations.
