Wishcraft: How to Get What You Really Want, 2nd Edition

Barbara Sher, Ballantine Books, 2003

For law students who are struggling with how to make dreams coincide with job options — or for law graduates who are feeling stuck in an unfulfilling job or career path — Wishcraft may be a helpful resource. In the first half of the book, Barbara Sher encourages readers to suspend reality and explore their yearnings and dreams. Ultimately, however, this is a book of practical strategies for making life or career changes. Sher’s emphasis is on discovering strengths and skills; turning fears and negative feelings into positive tools; mapping out a path to one’s goal, including target dates; charting progress day by day; creating a support network of contacts and sources; and using a buddy system to keep you on track.
