How do people really find work? Not thru standing in the "job search line" or tossing resumes into cyberspace. Job search, as all who have had to do it know, is not a rational process. The best resume simply does not win. Finding Work takes a totally different approach. Instead of offering the same, tired advice; this book prompts individual action by using riveting stories and questions that will prompt the reader to start asking, "What if I did something different in my work search?" Revolving around "The Five,"five key principles for charting your own unique path, Finding Work delivers attention grabbing stories that are actually fun to read. THE FIVE

<li>
Communitize - Stop networking. Start communitizing. Weave yourself into the fabric of every community you can. You'll find out where you can fill a need from the inside, as a community member. Not as a networker.</li> </ul>
<ul>
<li>
Solve a Mystery - What is it that you can do with such ease that others see as a mystery? Mysteries always indicate a need for a solution. What if you could fill that need, solve what appears to be a mystery to others - and get paid for it?</li> </ul>
<ul>
<li> Practice Stewardship - Take care of something bigger than you. Find a way to build a legacy in real time. </li> </ul>

Chicago Street Corner Stories starts with a kind of spiritual walking tour in Graceland Cemetery to hear what the ghosts are saying. Wright's descriptions of seasons and vignettes, interspersed with remembrances of people, both famous and personal, who have influenced the rich history and diverse culture of the great city of Chicago, immerse the reader in a truly personal experience. As Chapter 2 introduces the love stories all around these seemingly ordinary corner hangouts and sidewalks and streets, nostalgia meets the present, and introspection reveals lessons learned and imparted. The third chapter hints of fears and loss, but overwhelmingly finds ways to hope, to heal, and to face whatever comes with unblinking knowledge that life itself is a blessing and that our stories are proof of its abundant benefit.
