Summary: Quite simply, Robert Fritz's masterpiece
Review: As a long time fan of Robert Fritz's books, I come by my eager anticipation for this new release quite naturally.

You see, I've been caught up in a pattern for the past few years that goes something like this: Robert Fritz releases a new book - I then read it and digest it - then I apply his teachings and as a result, my life experience becomes significantly altered for the better. With each of his four previous books, I have been blessed to see my pattern repeat itself over and over again.

From each book to the next, Robert Fritz introduced me to new facets of the art and science of developing my creative process, whether applying it to my personal life, my professional life or my organizational life.

And now, with Your Life As Art, Robert Fritz stretches my understanding of the creative process even further. He ties the key ideas and principles from his previous work together with his new ideas into one clear and compelling central theme.

You do not need to have read any of Robert's previous books in order to enter the fascinating universe of this new one. It is highly readable to both novice and seasoned readers alike.

I feel my life being transformed and enriched yet again. What a thankful pattern I have. Thank you, Robert!

Summary: A practical guide for the achievement of your dreams
Review: Having trouble creating the life you want? Or are you already creating results that matter personally, but want to improve your effectiveness?
'Your Life as Art' may be the next book you should pick up. It is packed with clear, insightful information, and doable experiments that can put your life on the fast track to the achievement of your dreams. Fritz is a life-long creator, and draws from his extensive experience in this very practical book. This is his best effort to date, and creators of any experience level should find it helpful.

Summary: Your Life As An Engineering Project
Review: My disappointment with this book began before completing the first page. His reference to the creative process as a an "operational practice" was the first indication that this book would be geared to readers of more linear, structured makeup than myself. "Mechanized," "systematic," "measurable," were words I tired of reading. I hadn't seen so many boxes and flow charts since working on my undergraduate business degree.

I loved The Path Of Least Resistance. That book I have reread about every five years, (which means I have read it five times at least and yes, he does make a point about looking at your life cycles.) Each time I have read it, I would again benefit from his organic analogies and his frequent quotes from famous people in music, literature, and politics. His humor and light touch make the read like a talk with a good friend. There are lines from that book that I have permantly etched into my consciousness and I now share them with my two musical children (who incidently are both composers).

In a nutshell, if you are a random abstract thinker who prefers literature to business abstracts, stick with Path of Least Resistance. It is truly a pearl. In fact, now that I have finally finished slogging through "Your life as Art", I am going to reread The Path Of Least Resistance.

Summary: His best book so far
Review: Robert Fritz's previous books are excellent and this new one is probably his best so far. His thoughts on how we can be the author of our own lives are not only fascinating and uplifting, but also accessible and very practical. What he has to say is often profound and original, but written in a way that we can all understand and apply to our own lives.
After reading this book I not only felt enthused to apply Fritz's creative process to my own life, but I also recommended it to all of my friends. For me it is a classic work that will become an integral part of my life. I cannot recommend this book strongly enough.

Summary: A Different Universe
Review: Using what I've learned from reading all of Robert Fritz's books, and especially Your Life as Art, I've seen changes that are nothing short of phenomenal with clients in my psychiatry practice, and in my own life. After years in therapy trying to "fix themselves," often without success, I hear clients newly introduced to this work say, "Oh! You mean creating what matters in my life is what it's about!?!" It often doesn't take them long to put this into practice, with gratifying results.
