Conquering well worth a read!

"Conquering Your Quarterlife Crisis: Advice From Twentysomethings Who Have Been There and Survived." Was great! When you read it you get stories advice from hundreds of voices. I read a minim of 20 people in a situation very similar to mine. This book is a good new way to tackle the scary problems. Story/crisis problem evaluation and boom way to counqer.It's a fast and fluid read too. Who has time to poll 100 people and analyze and got work on a method of conquering the problem. Great to see that a lot of really smart people out there having the same stupid problems as me and no just because people tell you SUCESSFUL smart people have some of the same problems and questions as you won't believe it till you read some of this fascinating but totally realistic case studies! * Also you things improve for people then go bad again Yin Yang up down but then they tell you how they deal with it in their narrative or you get the answer in the conquer portion of the book. There are also some excellent tips that you get fast. So if you don't have time to read huge volumes or go to a shrink or a discussion group because hey a lot of people can't do that. Read this I think this book and it's self improvement technique are going to be a new way kind of like the reality TV of self help but sophisticated. The realism and real stories are dramatic not boring but not made up or phony either. In fact you feel a lot emotions relating to all these people- YOU JUST WANT TO GIVE A SHOUT OUT TO ALL THE PEOPLE IN THIS BOOK AND HOW THEY CONQUER AND SURVIVE!! There are parts of the book that get you down because it's reality which can be scary. However in the end things seem to work out for people in the case studies you get empowered. No need for Dr. Phil. You look at the case studies your self. You se countless issues and problems then points of view then points of view on how to conquer them. People find realistic fulfillment realist problems real answers for you to draw ideas on ho to as the author says "conquer". Stories are of interesting people like you the reader and there are so many people that reader will have to fit with several types. I felt sorry for the artsy types who were struggling. But you see they get answers not just sympathy. You see how 911 and the dot com bubble burst hurts some people and how they cope.

It psyched me up

Best $13 I ever spent. Well, on a book anyway. Conquering Your Quarterlife Crisis psyched me up to do what I needed to do to get out of my rut. It was easy to read, didn't talk down, wasn't preachy and told me what I needed to do and how to do it. Thank you!

Best Advice Book I've Read

This book, I picked it up on a whim but it has already made me think differently about my life and how I'm going to make it better. I didn't even read the chapters in order - I just poked around, looking at questions that interested me at first, but then I kept finding something valuable so I read the whole thing. I never thought I'd read a self help book, but this one was so different than I thought. It's astoundingly helpful.

Insightful, Well Written, Worth a Read!

What a fantastic book! Ms. Robbins writes to today's youth from a point of view of someone who has been there and, unlike many, provides actual, useful, well thought out, and practiced advice. I would highly recommend this book to all college aged "kids" out there -- or for parents to ship off to them!

This is Everything I Hoped It Would Be

Conquering Your Quarterlife Crisis is an exceptionally written book that delivers exactly what I need--ADVICE! I am in my Quarterlife Crisis now. I identify directly with several of the mentors. I read the book in 2 days, and I'm so happy I did. Highly recommended.
