If now is the perfect time to take stock of yourself and your career and evaluate if you really are doing what you'd rather be doing, read on! This book might just provide the stimulation and inspiration (as well as practical, no-nonsense advice) that you need.

It explains how you can realise your inner potential and create the working life you want. Various techniques including neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), creative visualization, affirmations and other practical exercises help you identify and move towards your goals. This book has been revised and relaunched as an e-book (printed version available in 2006) called Follow Your Dream, available from www.bookshaker.com. Copies of Taking Control of Your Own Career may still be available in public libraries.
