  <default_description>It's hard to separate work from life, maybe because work is part of everything we do, both at home and in the workplace. But one thing is certain-- when we improve the quality of our work, we improve the quality of our lives. Having held 18 different jobs in various fields, author Amanda Dickson is keenly aware that not all work is equally enjoyable. In the trademark enthusiastic style that has made her a top-ranked radio personality and sought-after speaker, she offers practical suggestions for finding joy in whatever work you do. Included are ways to identify the work you were born to do and basic changes in attitude that will help you deal with less-than-ideal working conditions. Amanda's fresh outlook and laugh-out-loud humor will change the way you think about work . . . and life.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[Love it! This is the book I have been wanting to write for years, but Amanda beat me to it.  What I loved most was the idea that your life can make sense to outsiders including your family and still be the wrong life.  It is the hardest thing to take the leap and change to a happier existence, but t...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/50075570">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Advice is given in a cheerful, often self-depracating manner that is enjoyable and quick.<br/>Like most books of this sort, the point is made a couple of times, with several examples, sometimes to the point where you start skipping ahead.<br/>She does tend to oversimplify some things, but that's t...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/16367020">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book has a good message, and I actually do enjoy cleaning my counter tops more than before I opened the book, but I couldn't finish it. It was TEDIOUS reading, because she is just saying the same thing over and over and over, while she comes up with a zillion new anecdotes to prove her one and ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/8797497">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I couldn't help but read in her voice.  I listen to her almost everyday for at least a few minutes so it was like I was just hearing her talk.  And she writes like she's talking.  It was upbeat and fun but I did find it a bit repetitious/much and so I have to admit I never finished it before I had t...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/10040107">more...</a>]]></body>
