Don't purchase this book if you don't want to change your life in a truly meaningful way!
I purchased this book a couple of months before I was going to hear Mick speak at a conference and started reading it and doing the reflection questions. Doing these reflections compelled me to think about my life in a different way....it opened my eyes to new possibilities and new understanding of who I am and, it helped me gain a clearer understanding of my life. Then I heard Mick speak so passionately and eloquently at the conference and was further inspired to continue the journey.
The book gives you the tools and asks the really important questions about your life and where you are going. The last chapter gives instructions for doing a 48 hour personal retreat. I recently completed the personal retreat and it was a truly amazing experience. It has changed my life, it has helped me define what I really want, what is really important, what I am currently doing that is contradictory to my values, and I learned a lot more about my life, myself, my tendencies, my aspirations, and so much more!
"Who Are You and What Do You Want?" is an amazing and transformational book! I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone interested in assessing their life and making meaningful adjustments to it! This book will answer many questions, open up many new possibilities and it will change the rest of your life to the best of your life....guaranteed....if you don't agree, you can have your old life back!

This Book May Have Saved My Company June 5, 2008
9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I want to tell you how important "Who Are You and What Do You Want?" was to me. I own a successful commercial printing company and after 17 years I wanted to try something different. I started a new company last year and because of the lead talent in this new firm the prospects for quick success were high. But after nine months of slow progress, struggles, and having no real sense of where I should now direct this company, I pulled together my advisory board and we all started to ask some very tough questions. The consensus was that we needed to start over, regroup, and come up with a solid plan. Even though we had pressing deadlines and some current opportunities, we had to stop chasing random leads and spend time sharpening our saw.
But I didn't know how to sharpen a saw -- or if the saw was the problem. I needed help so I started to scan the current business books on Amazon and found this book. What got me to buy was the title, and the emphasis on learning how to plan your life and/or business around your personal strengths. I've read many business books over the years and some of the concepts in this book I'm familiar with -- but what is new is the way the worksheets and questionnaires combine a person's personality traits with "What Do You Want?" This was unique, clarifying, and amazing. They even have you do a time-line of your entire life -- all successes, failures, lost loves, etc... This was scary, fun, depressing, hopeful, melancholy, embarrassing, and the best. This exercise helps you identify patterns of mistakes and successes.
As of this writing, I'm three quarters of the way in finishing my business plan for my new company: Project time-lines, measurable goals, 90/10 rule, using my strengths and getting talented help for other jobs, etc... All these innovative ideas are being put to use in my new business.
The writers of this book have created a truly important book. I don't think I'm overstating this when I say this book probably saved my company, and maybe a lot more.

It gives you indepth answers in a way that's easy to understand and even easier to carry out. I found immediate results on taking control of my own agenda...and that was only after a few chapters. Definitely worth reading whether you need some guidance or if you're just looking for a few tips for tweaking things.

Great book. This is the kind of resource you keep forever. Not just for yourself but for the people you love. If you have teenages or fiends who are struggling with who they want to be when they grow up, this book will help them find the path. It's good straight forward advise and it will resonate with young people. I loved it. Thanks!
