An Excellent Read For Any Stage Of Your Career
I'm 33 and at the stage in life where I need to start thinking of the future, not just financial but personally. I found this book to be very insightful and a joy to read. It has made me think of the type of person I am and what I truly want out of life. For someone like me who doesn't normally get that much time to read, due to a busy career, I couldn't put the book down and I have already started to use the tools I've acquired from reading this book.

A must read for anyone planning the rest of their life
I have just read Critchley's book for the second time. It is packed full of useful advice for anyone wanting to plan their future career and life.
The real life examples of people who have got it right, and those who need to rethink their plans are both inspirational and salutory. I am 55 and recommend the book anyone who wants a systematic guide to help them plan their future.

Women over 50
The book is almost totally irrelevant to a woman's experiences in changing careers late in life. His only view of women is as a support system for a sucessful male. He has nothing to say about moving from being self employed to being in the job market. He has nothing to say about reclaiming your life when you have been the beneficiary of a medical miracle. He spends half of the book trying to teach men how to balance their lives. Working women are by definition expert on balancing life priorities. He has a chapter on learning how to communicate with people. Most women already have these skills. He assumes the subject will have an emotional support system in place. Single working female parents have to be their own support system. Similar Products
