Should you ask your boss for a raise? Call that cute guy you met at a party? Sell your stock? Tell your best friend her boyfriend’s cheating on her? Wouldn’t it be nice to have a handy method of handling some of life’s more pressing dilemmas? The answer to these questions (and hundreds of others) is in this unique little book that’s impossible to put down. It’s simple to use: just hold it closed in your hands and concentrate on your question for a few seconds. While visualizing or speaking your question, place one palm down on the book’s front and stroke the edge of the pages back to front. When you sense the time is right, open to the page your fingers landed on and there is your answer! It’s fun, satisfying, and a lot less time-consuming than asking everyone you know for advice. Wondering what to get that someone who’s hard to buy for? We’ve got the answer for you...
