Get a Life dispels clichés of ways in which to improve your life, and uses the analogy of a compass, referred to as a Life Compass, to guide you through each aspect of your life. The compass points are 6 aspects that are an intrinsic part of our lives: Career, Mind/Body, Finance, Relationships, Fun and Contribution. These Compass points are discussed in depth, using case studies and challenge points to enable you to get to the heart of what it is that motivates you, what you wish to achieve, and what constitutes success for you. Get a Life challenges the individual to reflect upon the way we think and behave and provides strategies to implement change.
