Human Development Specialist Urges: Live to Work -- Don’t Work to Live!

From changing careers to simply changing your attitude -- Dr. Michelle Casto releases a new book, a personal guide to “Get Your Career on the Fast Track.”

Oshawa, Ontario (MMPUBS.COM) June 20, 2008 -- Job security seems a thing of the past. Labor statistics suggest that the average person will make five to seven career changes in their life. So, how do we stay in the game? Michelle L Casto, Ph.D. lays out a holistic approach that addresses work as part of a process towards life fulfillment in her new book “Get Your Career on the Fast Track.”

 

The book includes methods for raising self awareness by utilizing active reflection and listening to your intuitive guidance to help people make educated decisions about their lives. Whether those decisions reflect shifts in attitude enabling them to flourish in their present career, or whether their present path is not the type of work they find fulfilling, “Get Your Career on the Fast Track” is a great read for anyone unhappy in their workplace.

 

Broken down into six overall phases, the book guides readers through self assessment, investigation into the work environment, synthesis evaluation, role exploration, work preparation and eventually career commitment. Each chapter is filled with examples, case studies and inspirational quotes, making the guide easy to follow and use. 

 

In addition to the various self assessment tests contained in “Get Your Career on the Fast Track,” every chapter includes journal assignments to actively guide the readers’ self reflection process. Everyone has a unique set of talents, skills, and abilities. This book shows that each of us should discover our own gifts and decide where and how we will use them to find our true vocation.
