What Should I Do with My Life?

Summary: Views of others on the journey... but no promises of answers
Review: This book is fabulous. It's only the second that I've had the attention span to read continually on plane flights (the other being The Alchemist).

If you're trying to figure out where you're going career-wise, and just in the world in general, this book could be helpful to you. It consists of stories of different people who have made their missteps, found their true callings, are still looking, etc. The author's voice is great through this. He tries not to influence the person's telling of their story, but yet knows that he inevitably does. That actually makes the book stronger.

You may recognize pieces of yourself throughout the book - I know I have. If you're unsatisfied with one-size-fits-all career advice workbook kind of things that have little acknowledgement of your life outside of work, and would like to hear stories but not promises of a quick fix for anyone's situation, get this book.
