Wow. Who knew a children's book could help an adult

I initially bought this for my teenage daughter who is a junior in high school and completely unmotivated to rise to her potential. My youngest daughter brought home the supplement to Weekly Reader--Career World or something, that was handed out in school and in it was a review of this book. I'm at my wits end when it comes to Dana and I am willing to try most anything, so I bought the book. Since Dana's very picky and hates most things that I buy for her, I decided to read the book myself before giving it to her. I was very surprised. With practical tips and exercises, I saw my own life in a new way and felt more inspired to at least consider again, my ultimate dream of owning my own business. I don't know if Dana will like the book, but I'm giving it to her anyway. My hope is that the inspiring text and stories will move her to get off her butt and explore the wonderful individual that she is.
COOL, but not at first.

My teacher gave our class this book to read and at first I hated it because i had to fill out information and stuff. But then I liked it because now I know that I want to draw or maybe own a deli like my dad.
GREAT!

My mom bought this book for me because i have been sad. My athma has gotten so bad so I can't play soccer anymore. I love soccer so I don't know what else I am good at so this book has helped me kind of figure it out. There is a workbook thing at the back of the book that is helpful and kind of fun. I recommend this book.
