Summary: A positively exciting experience!
Comment: I don't tend to think of self-help books as "exciting"... but, unlike any of the others I've read, this is one I turn to again and again whenever I need some inspiration. I got it out of the public library originally, then bought my own and have given it to more than one friend since. The second time I read this book, it got me to sit down and actually sketch out the characters, plot, and scenes for the novel idea I'd been kicking around. (Now I have to read it again to make myself get back in gear!) It's worth reading just for the exercises in the first half: creative takes on the usual 'brainstorming' sort of activities, which actually yield useful insights into what makes life satisfying to you on a day-to-day level. Altogether excellent for reorganizing your priorities and your direction in life -- in big ways or small ways.

Summary: Practical and Revealing
Comment: As with other reviews I've read, I wish to commend WishCraft for its practical and effective approach to strategy planning and development.
I first read WishCraft in 1990. I was homeless and emotionally destitute, in the worst part of my mid-life crisis, and clutching at straws to find ways to rebuild my life. A friend whose couch I was sleeping on suggested I give it a read, and I did.
I have since rebuilt my life. I have the wife of my dreams, a home overlooking Victoria Harbor in Hong Kong and a brand-new, bright and shining son, all of which I treasure.
This is two "five year plans" down the road, and I still use the book's tools as an outline for planning and shaping my life. It is not the only tool I use, but it is invaluable. It provides a reference for me to determine and adjust my life's goals.
Like any such book, I don't believe you should marry it. It is not a bible. Rather, it is a guidebook, and especially suited for those of us who have not had any training is creating life strategies.

Summary: The best book I've ever read on the subject
Comment: This book is a must read for everyone. The first part of the book takes you through deciding what your dreams are and what you want to accomplish in life and why. And the second part, my favorite, takes you step-by-step to accomplishing your goals. All those time management and organizational books out there cannot compare with her system. She takes you dreams and turns them into reality one action at a time.
