The world's most popular job-search book is updated for 2017 to tailor its long-trusted guidance with up-to-the-minute information and advice for today's job-hunters and career-changers.
In today's challenging job-market, the time-tested advice of What Color Is Your Parachute? is needed more than ever. Recent grads facing a tough economic landscape, workers laid off mid-career, and people searching for an inspiring work-life change all look to career guru Richard N. Bolles for support, encouragement, and advice on which job-hunt strategies work--and which don't. This revised and updated edition combines classic elements like the famed Flower Exercise with updated tips on social media and search tactics.
I didn't read this book from start to finish. Rather, I picked and read sections as needed in my immediate life. Because I think of this book as a reference. You wouldn't read a reference book from start to finish and this book can't be read like that either.
Rather, I chose sections of it to practice and then came back and read a few more sections. That way, my mind could process the information and it would help me apply it to my life.
Quotes to Live By
If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.
(John Quincy Adams)

Adult Kids' Bible with Devotionals
I love this new version of a Bible much better because it follows the Bible in chronological order, but it has cute, relational devotions after very few pages which are down-to-earth and related with kids in this day and age.
Engaging weekday devotions, fun weekend activities, interesting illustrations, and a dictionary make this a Bible they’ll want to read and apply to their lives. It includes the complete New International Reader’s Version (NIrV)—the stepping stone to the NIV—making it easier for young readers to read and understand.
Features include: • Short weekday devotions that help young readers apply Bible lessons for a full year. • 52 weekend devotions that teach kids about God’s creation through fun activities like visiting the zoo and gazing at the stars. • “Got It” feature that encourages kids to find answers to Bible trivia themselves. • Book introductions that give helpful information about each book of the Bible. • A dictionary to look up words they want to know more about. • The complete NIrV text, which uses shorter sentences and easier words.
