{"product_id":"the-real-world-david-kramer-9781475856026","title":"The Real World: Timeless Ideas Not Learned in School","description":"The Real World is a collection of practical ideas to empower young adults as they enter and adjust to the real world. The ideas are simple, straightforward and easy to adapt; no major life changes are needed (though some could result). Most high schools and colleges still focus primarily on academics and ignore teaching practical skills needed to thrive in the real world. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRole models for young adults are often entertainers, Olympic athletes and sports figures, all of whom devote much time to achieve their goals. Self-help media most often teach about major changes that are needed to succeed with a new approach to living. Instead, The Real World offers simple yet powerful ideas that can be harnessed immediately and successfully to one's life without a \"major internal overhaul.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSome of the book's more than 160 powerful ideas include how to: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e-Interview successfully and enter the workforce \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e-Get great reference letters \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e-Think for oneself \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e-Begin building wealth (even with student loans) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e-Manage time effectively \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e-Communicate clearly in business and personal relationships\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Kramer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1475856024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781475856026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rowman \u0026amp; Littlefield Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/25\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.70d","brand":"David Kramer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43986478104831,"sku":"9781475856026","price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_635abe20-5740-4ccd-822a-18e881228a14.jpg?v=1683283581","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-real-world-david-kramer-9781475856026","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
