I recently finished this book and I do admit that it is inspirational and makes a lot of good points. However, I was disappointed that none of Mr. Cope's examples of people who found their dharma included people with real family or financial obligations. Most of us cannot walk in the woods or near a pond for a couple years while our mother brings us cookies and just write poetry and reflect on nature.
We must also support and care for our families. I would very much like to find inspiration from people who were able to meet their obligations and still find a way to find their dharma tat does not make anyone else suffer.
Get a Life! - The Guide Book by Lisa Whitehead
I became an engineer solely for the reason that it was a secure way to provide for my family. For a long time my dharma was simply just that, to support and care for my family. Being able to do so made me very happy. Now that my children are grown or gone one died in a car accident I understand that life is very short and I want to grow as a person before it's my time to go as well. Yet I still have an obligation to my husband and don't want him to feel like he has to bear the complete burden of maintaining our life just so I can "find myself".
It wouldn't be fair to him. I would have also liked more examples of people who didn't know what their calling was. Cope's examples were people that always knew they wanted to be a poet or a writer or had a very strong drive to do something very specific. I, on the other hand, am not so clear. I have lots of interests, many of which I obsess over,,,,, for a very brief period of time. Then another interest catches my eye. Perhaps the journey is part of the process and the mere act of looking is teaching me what I need to know. Still, it would be nice to find something that makes me feel like I'm not just treading water waiting out the second half of my life.
Just not what you expected to learn I found this book to be very inspiring and motivating. But what the book fails to do, is to explain "how" this can be possible for the everyday people, who encompass majority of the population. So although this book has been wonderfully written, it fails to deliver what it says it's purpose is. You will not walk away from this book feeling like you had wasted your time. See all reviews.

Editorial Reviews
No two people will take the same path or set the same pace. You can make the book and the plan your own. I'd do it so why not you? Nowhere do I advocate walking on hot coals! There are no big words or jargon.

Using a dictionary is educational but it does little for your self-confidence. This book uses plain English.
Human nature is to spot where we're weak and forget where we're strong. It should be more like a vacation, helping you create the opportunity to try new things. There's nothing here you won't enjoy. This book is not a shopping list for things you can't really afford.
In fact it shows you how to save money instead! Remember that this game is all about making lots of small changes, not a few big ones.
