A Solid Effort!
Dr. Deborah Bright describes an eight-step program for gaining more control over your life, both every day and in the long term. She discusses becoming more aware of your level of control, and assuming more responsibility for your own direction. She advocates being a "pro-achiever," with a positive "take control" attitude. Although the book's strength resides in stories drawn from personal interviews, the basic principles are very familiar in success and self-help literature. Dr. Bright coins some new phrases, but her advice is not new. However, the self-help audience always seems to welcome a new look at these ideas, restated and repackaged in different ways. We [...] recommend this book to those who want an extra boost in exerting control over their lives, to readers who like strong personal anecdotes, and to beleaguered junior execs who have not yet consulted a basic life management text.
