Are You Satisfied with Your Career?

It continues to amaze me that so many people who invest substantial amounts of hours and dollars in a physical fitness program invest little (if anything) in a career fitness program. For the modest cost of this book, a cohesive and comprehensive career fitness program is now available. The excellent text is accompanied by a floppy disk. Keep in mind that (as with authentic physical fitness programs) the "complete checkup and workout guide" which Morin introduces in this book requires a resolute commitment of focused and sustained effort. Here is how the material is organized:Part One: Conducting a Career Fitness EvaluationPart Two: Doing a Career Fitness Tune-UpPart Three: Devising a New Career Fitness Program In the final section, Morin also explains "How to Use the Disk."If your career is "out of shape" and needs some "muscle tone", the program presented in this book (or another program of comparable scope and rigor) is what you need. As is true of so many other human activities, what you get out of this program will probably be about as much as you put into it.

Excellent Practical Guide

The advice in this book combined with the exercises on the floppy disk provide a powerful resource for career assessment and development.
