Zen and the Art of Making a Living: A Practical Guide to Creative Career Design

For career consultant Laurence G. Boldt everyone is the artist of his or her own life. In this comprehensive, useful, and potentially life-changing book, he offers a new vision of work. The first part is about identifying work that will be deeply satisfying - discovering what you really want to do. The second part provides a practical, active step to finding or creating that work. In addition to traditional material like assessing career skills, conducting a job search, and writing a resume, you'll find a wealth of information not generally found in career guides, including how to start a business, work freelance, establish a nonprofit corporation, manage multiple careers - and how to love what you're doing until you're doing what you love.
