Summary

Summary

This new book focuses as much on 'human development' or 'developing the whole person' as much as teaching study skills. While Corey covers study skills completely, the true emphasis is motivating the person to find answers to these questions: "What are your dreams, your hopes, your fears? Where do you want to go with your life? What block to do you need to overcome to get there? What skills and strategies do you need to learn to position yourself for success?" The book is warm, personal, motivational and includes many exercises and diverse personal stories.
