I almost read this book in one sitting. With our busy lives, there's always something on our "to do list" that could uproot our reading time. Our personal growth research time." How To Work For Yourself" got to the 100 tips without wasting words. Where the author needed to elaborate.. he did. Otherwise, he moved on to the next tip. I appreciated that style of writing.I also enjoyed the format. As the author did have chapters for each idea, I liked how he placed each of his tips in the right chapter placement. Yes, some ideas were basic. But, who are we to say we have arrived on all of these ideas of personal growth. Experts says we need to hear things repeated and repeated to us so that we retain it. All of the tips were important to connect to the overall wholeness of a person being able to work for oneself. Is this book for the newcomer...yes. Is it still appropriate for the more "schooled person"... Yes! We all can benefit from review.The marketing ideas were frustrating but that's just me. I want to write more and market less. I want to just write which is something my son and I talk about all the time. Many of the author's ideas confirmed what I have read in other books. That's great too. I know I am on the right track as others in the field confirm their successes and "how to's" in their own words that confirm others.I give it a five! It didn't waste my time to talk down to me about the simple things I should do that I hadn't done yet. The advice was positive, uplifting, and to the point.
