Time can be an asset, allowing people to discover what they would most like to do and when. A career expert with more than 20 years of business experience shares new ways of thinking about change to manage careers and lives, helping others achieve personal fulfillment. His innovative concept calls for turning “ifs” into “whens” is a new way of thinking about how to achieve goals and give each day meaning.
The collection of real-life stories and professional nuggets of wisdom from a series of authors in WHEN: Vol. 1 focuses on career and spiritual being. Told from both male and female points of view, each chapter illustrates the practical “if” or “when” mindset that showed the authors how to achieve success in their own lives, however they defined it. With this set of metrics, they turned challenges into reality, finding their WHEN in life was actually now.

“The elements I take away of finding your WHEN in this compact, yet powerful storytelling book are: Only when you are ready, open, and clear is the time that one can accept and identify their WHEN. Remember it is difficult for all of us. No path is the same.”
