Ratings and reviews

A book full of invaluable perspectives on evaluating whether or not something in our lives (personal and professional) is helping with our goals. This clarification goes far toward helping us as we articulate to others, or ourselves, the WHY behind our choices (in any direction). LOVE this book and how it's helped me clarify choices in my life. Thank you Dr. Cloud!

great insight and managing that applies to all parts of life you have to end something you don't know how.
