Rating: Summary: Work Less Make More Review: This book delivers on its title! From the moment I heard the title, I felt challenged to find a new way to live and work. Jennifer's direct, no-holds-barred style is refreshing, thought-provoking and stimulated me to take action.As a creative, high-performing person who is a businessowner, coach and wife, I have felt overextended, tired and over involved with projects most of my life. And yet, I'd still heard myself say "yes" to the next interesting project that came along. At the end of 1999, I'd reached a point in my life where it was time for this to stop. I followed my intuition about the title of this book, tracked it down and bought it. This book speaks to the heart of the issue for me. It provides strategies and clear action steps that have guided me to a new way. Jennifer's questions shake up my status quo thinking and challenge me to take a new perspective. Questions like "What is your brilliance?" and "What would it take for you eliminate all the things you do that aren't your brilliance" have challenged me to reorganize my life and business. As a coach, I've found this an excellent resource for my clients. They come to their next coaching session eager to get to work on having the life they really want and ready to make the changes necessary. If the title of this book speaks to that knowing place in you....buy it, read it and use it! I look forward to sharing it with many people and having a lot of partners in living life in a joyful, potent and highly effective way.

Rating: Summary: Best gift I've ever given my hard-working friends Review: With hundreds of self-help books gathering dust on my bookshelves, this is THE one that's marked-up, dog-earred, underlined and highlighted. First, I bought the hardback version. Now, after having shared Work Less, Make More -- either as a gift or as a powerful recommendation -- with dozens of friends (many of whom feel overworked and underappreciated), I recently purchased copies of the paperback to give to my staff, so that they too can begin the Work Less, Make More journey. You see, this book is not fluff. It's a guide to incredible new methods (the "why didn't I think of that?" kind) of, first, looking at what is stopping you from working less and making more ... and then, figuring out ways to eliminate the obstacles and go for the Gold. The book has helped me eliminate a lot of the clutter in my life -- both the tangible physical kind and the less tangible stress-causing commitments. For the first time in a long while, I'm beginning to have fun at work AND at home, by focusing on what I do best and letting somebody else do the other stuff. There's a lot more to it than that, but the bottom line is: It's really working!
