I never get anything done! I have so little control over my life!These were thoughts Ray had as he headed home later for supper, confident his wife, Carol, would be sympathetic to his problem.One sentence into unloading his problems on her, he heard,'Too much to do? Tell me about it!'Her problems were as big as or even bigger than his.When they went to a friend for help, they discovered more than hope,'That sounds like us several years ago. But Coach Eric's Aligned Thinking not only solved those problems, it helped us to do what most people believe impossible: align every action to what we really want.With mild hope and huge skepticism, Ray and Carol visited Coach Eric and gave him a description of their ideal professional and personal life. Coach Eric assured them that Aligned Thinking could help them enjoy each item on their list. However, when he asked them to add to their list'make every moment count so life becomes a celebration,'Ray and Carol became even more skeptical. A renowned consultant's roadmap to realigning life and work teaches the reader to discover how to define priorities and create plans for developing practical ways to focus on what is and what is not important in life. THESE WERE Ray's thoughts as the train from Lower Manhattan tunneled to New Jersey under the Hudson River.
