New Book Focuses on Playing To Your Strengths

In The Truth About You, Marcus Buckingham breaks some commonly believed myths and shares his insights on how to succeed in, and more importantly enjoy, your life.

Buckingham encourages us to identify our strengths and weaknesses. But one of the greatest revelations to me was that a strength isn't necessarily something you're good at. You can be good at something you don't enjoy, which would really make it a weakness. It's nuggets like this that get you thinking. In fact, that's the real strength of this book: it's ability to make you think about your life and the way you're living it.

There are three parts to this mini-program: The book, the DVD, and the Rememo pad. The packaging is unique, but it makes the book difficult to read. That is, until I realized that you can actually remove the book from the shiny silver box-like cover. That was an exciting revelation in itself!

If you've got a teenager in the house, or if you're looking for some new direction, pick up The Truth About You. You may be surprised at what you find out!
