Summary: Get on the right path
Comment: This book is a quick read and well worth it. I haven't yet begun to use the route most appropriate for me, but I did find the self-assessment very useful in helping to determine which route I should take. One word of caution (which is also echoed in the book): make sure you are extremely honest with yourself when doing the self-assessment. I also recommend taking a Myers-Briggs test (MBTI) and seeing if the results of the MBTI match up with what you find in this book. In my case they were very closely related.

I rarely give 5 stars, and once I've had a chance to actually test and implement the strategies in this book I suspect I will increase my rating.

Rating: 5
Summary: Must reading for all entrepreneurs
Comment: This is one of those unsung hero books that few people know about but really packs a wallop. Great information. I also recommend The Entrepreneurial Mindset by Rita Gunther which is likewise packed with powerful information that really works.

I noticed another book promoted with this book written by a self publisher. BEWARE: I have read his books, not much substance. Stick with people Gunther, Macmillan and Miner and you won't be dissappointed.

Rating: 5
Summary: Valuable information that you won't find anywhere else
Comment: This book is so good that I read and reread it three times in a row! What powerful insights! You won't find this information anywhere else.

This book is a keeper. I took copious notes and am benefitting tremendously from these powerful insights. I found many powerful insights.

First it is based exclusively on extensive data collection, analysis, and correlation rather than observation or an acedemics inspired perspectives on life.

Second, one chapter is devoted to each of the four typeswith each chapter using a standard discussion/presentation format (prevalent characteristics and style of the type, case studies, SPECIFIC paths to success for each type, successful work situations for each type, etc.) that makes it extremely easy to compare and contrast types as one determineswhich-if-any-one is.

Third, there is a self assessment test to determine/validate one's type as well as extensive guidance on how to correctly interpet one's scores and mitigate response basis.

Finally, instead of one on one (presumably expensive) career counseling, Miner provides a detailed listing of the more than 60 skills/values/personality type/interest etc. tests administered to his 100 research subjects (MBA students at SUNY-
Buffalo) and specifically advises readers to work with the book on their ownrather than engage him.

I have recommended this book to several others who, in turn, have read it and come away with the same decidedly positive view that I have.

I find myself continually reflecting on material in the book and re-reading certain sections. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that you will find yourself hansomely rewarded for the small investment in this great book. And no doubt will, as I and my associates have, continue to refer to it again and again as you consider it's implications for your life.
