The questionnaire with this book is worth its weight in gold
(Madison, Wisconsin) June 17, 2004 - 5.0/5 stars

Now Discover Your Strengths fulfills its promise. The online questionnaire provided with the book is fabulous.

I had been struggling to find my vocational fit for 16 years because I was not confident that my talents were really strengths.

The questionnaire and book helped me to differentiate between talents and strengths and to realize that my talents were also strengths.

After 16 years of being a "misfit" doing stressful work, I have finally changed my career. I attribute the change in my life to this book and another wonderful book, Optimal Thinking: How To Be Your Best Self that showed me how to master my thinking and feelings and optimize all situations (good and bad).

10.	A Glass of Lemonade
	(Cleveland, OH USA) November 25, 2003 - 5.0/5 stars
	I thought I'd place my premature evaluation. I call it premature because I have only reached chapter 5 thus far. This book is definitely refreshing - like a tall glass of lemonade on a hot summer day. I was intrigued most... read full review
