When one thinks of a career, things such as major, salary, interests and passions, resumes, interviews, and big names in the industry come to mind. But what about the search for a career not based on figures and numbers but on the abstract concept of self and of purpose? Richard Bolles truly addresses and assists those who are searching for their mission in life, for their path in this book. Through combining spiritual or the religious part of life with the career aspect of life, something that many fear is unacceptable, Bolles has brought together into a small book the idea that the two are truly connected. In the small stories, short quotes, and thought provoking questions, Bolles has introduced this idea of mission in life as not only a religiously minded one, but one that has a lot to do with the job search. This truly is a great, short, and intriguing read, good for one just beginning to develop themselves further as a person and one just starting the job search.
