My husband and I just completed our life plan and we recommend this workbook enthusiastically. It makes you consider what really matters, instead of the unimportant stuff that fills up our days, and take the reins of your life. The process both validated many decisions we've made, and uncovered other areas and choices that need to be attended to. We're heading into the final chapters of our careers/family life, but it's probably even more useful for those in earlier stages. The process fostered thoughtful conversation and sparked ideas we're excited to pursue.

We spend so much of our lives planning work, children, even our vacations. Somehow, lost in the equation is our own hopes and dreams, goals we sometimes fantasize about but never share or verbalize for fear we could be seen as selfish, or worse, ridiculous. Lee Weinstein has written the roadmap back to our hearts; a guidebook every twenty-something should consider before choosing a partner, every established couple should read before committing, and every older couple should be referring to regularly to ask, "What really matters and how do we do THAT?"

There really is a reason to put your intentions in writing! Lee Weinstein makes it so easy to manifest what you've been dreaming about with his fun and engaging method for mapping out the milestones you want to reach. The workbook is beautifully made and easy to complete. Start 2018 off right and get busy with Write, Open, Act!

This book is the "What Color is Your Parachute" of life planning. Lee draws on his professional expertise and personal experience to help people mindfully plan their future. The lessons have been indispensable in planning a new business venture.

I’ve just received this book and started the process of answering these tough questions. This book is not going to solve your problems for you. It is a guide for YOU to do the work and find out what you want in life. I am excited to make my life plan and all of the hard questions that will challenge me in many ways. This is not a feel good cozy self help book. This is for people who want to face the tough questions in life and live fully and intentionally. I plan to give this book as a gift to all my newlywed friends in the future!

Weinstein has prepared an absolutely fabulous workbook intended to guide one through a "later," but definitely not less important, stage of life. As a 50+ with a lot of questions about whether I should pursue something exciting or sit back and drift forward, I found this workbook to be absolutely life changing. It can not only inspire you to move forward with the things on your wish list and bucket list but actually help you develop a plan on how to do that. A fantastic and much needed contribution to any reading list!!!

As Ferris Bueller said, "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it." This book proved to be an invaluable tool in helping me do just that: Get clear about what I want the balance of my life to look like, and strategize doable steps to achieve it. Refreshingly straightforward, "Write, Open, Act" effortlessly unpacks what might be the most important thing a person considers.

excellent tool for aligning wants and goals!

So important! What a wonderful approach to a fulfilling life!

This is the workbook my husband and I have been dreaming about. We already have a practice of laying in bed and dreaming together, and this gave us the structure, the desire and the inspiration to put it all down on paper. It makes all of those big dreams feel even more real, and now we have a timeline to make things happen for us! Highly recommended for all couples looking to get on the same page.

My husband and I found this workbook incredibly helpful. We had so many ideas floating around in our heads but actually sitting down, writing things out, discussing them helped us plan a road map. It also reminded us of what we need to do to get to where we want to go. We learned a lot about one another's hopes and dreams in the process, as well as where we should put priorities with 3 young children and a lot of life choices ahead of us. Best of all, it's easy to do in the tiny moments of "free" time we have after the kids go to bed. 🙂 Highly recommend for any age, but I'm really glad we've started now!
