Your No Fear Career
The book is divided into very short chapters, which Robin compares to blog posts. The short chapters really make reading the book enjoyable. I read the book during a very busy time, but I was able to reach for it whenever I had a few minutes. The short chapters also make going back to a section you want to delve into deeper very easy.
The author reminds readers throughout the book that everyone has an inner voice and that that voice is usually right. We should follow it before we are persuaded not to follow it by overthinking and fear.
Robin also points out the importance of identifying one's core values - a concept central to career planning - and uses her own example to illustrate how following her core values has improved her life tremendously. In fact, what makes the book so enjoyable and easy to read are the many anecdotes and stories that Robin uses to illustrate her points.
A very helpful feature of the book are the "Self Minute" sections that are included in each chapter. Each section is a sort of mini assignment that makes readers think about their own life and has them answer questions or consider information provided. Everyone can take this section as far as they want. Some I skimmed through while other sections really got me thinking. The questions are meaty enough to take some time with and answer in several paragraphs or more.
Overall, Your No Fear Career
Questions: Have you ever identified your core values? What are they? When was the last time you thought about which direction your career was going? Is there anything you would like to change? If so, what, if anything, are you doing to change things? Is fear ever a factor that prevents you from pursuing what you want to pursue - career or otherwise?
Be well,
Andrea
