About the Author

Marjory Harris finds problem solving fascinating, as long as it does not involve math. She got her first self-help book, Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People, at age 10, after being bullied at summer camp. After graduating from Barnard College and getting a master's degree in Italian Literature from Columbia University, she was in publishing in New York City and also did a stint as a social worker.

While working on a doctorate in Italian Literature, she switched to law. Since 1974, she has been practicing law in California, while also writing articles and editing medical-legal magazines. In the early 1990's, after obtaining a master's in psychology and studying hypnotherapy, Marjory developed Multidimensional Problem Solvingsm, to teach clients the techniques in this book.

A longtime resident of San Francisco, she moved from the fog to sunny Loma Linda, CA, where she practices law, writes books, and gardens.

I love her use of frequent thought experiments

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 1, 2016

Just read Marjory’s book and find it to be “spot on” in terms of what has worked so well in my life! First off, I love her use of frequent thought experiments. This makes learning more tangible and concrete. Second, her seven-step system does a great job of putting you in the “driver’s seat” for constructive change. I was particularly impressed how she gave a personal example of how this worked for her career. Finally, her emphasis on imagination is highly relevant for getting past negative inertia and self-talk, and turning the chapter forward to transformation. Finally, there are little “gems” in the book, too, that were really thought-provoking. For example, she talks about how we can start changing when we stop practicing avoidance … and finally decide to tackle a problem. This may seem so obvious … and yet, for me (whether it’s just cleaning my office, or organizing the garage) nothing really happens until I quit avoiding a task … and simply take the first step. It’s funny, the minute we start taking a deliberate step forward (even mentally), many of the perceived limitations start to fade. The power of Business-As-Usual loses it's hold. A great book with rich examples!

Refreshing and Supportive

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 2, 2016

Verified Purchase

Marjory Harris's book, The Personal Power Roadmap, definitely is powerful. It is written in a clear and easy-to-understand format, plus the actionable steps and bonuses she included really enhance the book.

I found Chapter 4, about imagination, especially refreshing and inspiring! There was a time in my life I used my imagination a lot, but then I became surrounded by people who shut it down. I'm finally rediscovering that "essential skill" I lost so many years ago, and the exercises in this chapter really resonated with me and stretched me to actually use my imagination again.

I highly recommend Personal Power Roadmap for anyone ready to make a change in their life but needs some support to keep putting one foot in front of the other. You don't need to look any further than this book!

Inspiring and practical book about problem-solving!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 4, 2016

Verified Purchase

I love how inspiring and practical this book is! The author is providing a roadmap for problem-solving, and explains the different components of the process. She offers personal stories, others' experiences, and examples that make the book very easy to understand and apply.

I liked her approach of "Been there, done that," teaching us now how to avoid making mistakes and delaying our success. I found the exercises presented very valuable and easy to apply right away.

I usually postpone or try to avoid tasks that I don't particularly like, but after reading this book I am excited to have shifted my perspective and start taking action right away!

I highly recommend this book for anyone looking to put a stop to unnecessary procrastination, and wanting to work on achieving their goals straight away!

Everyone can gain from reading this book and even one tip is worth its price to get you living a powerful and free life!

This was a GREAT book!
At first I thought there was a lot to absorb, but the author did a great job of breaking it down. The book focuses on 3 skills that help with all decision making and problem solving. Without spoiling it for you, I absolutely loved the first skill and just never thought of using it that way. All three skills are also demonstrated with case studies which I found really helped solidify my understanding.
One of my favorite lines from early in was: "the way you phrase the problem creates the solution or invites failure". I'm way more careful how I phrase things now, but I'm also great at using Skill No.1 to get me out of a pickle.
