Book Suggestion
"Dont Sweat The Small Stuff........and Its All Small Stuff." i havent read it but some anoying people have told me its the book that changed their life and made them way too happy and made them want to share it with me. here is a review from the Amazon website: "Stress consultant Carlson reads his self-help guide with conviction, his gentle voice clear and persuasive. He presents common-sense advice for living a less hectic and more meaningful, loving life. His essential message is that we get caught up in minutiae, "the small stuff," and never get around to doing what makes us or our loved ones happy. He advises readers to engage in such small acts as paying someone a compliment daily, putting a lid on keeping track of who does what around the house, and writing a letter to a friend. Carlson urges small daily changes and uses examples of improvement from his own life to show how the advice works, making the book ideally suited to the audio format. Tape quality is excellent. Recommended for public libraries.?Nancy R. Ives, SUNY at Geneseo" i never thought i would read this book, but i think it fits what we are doing in this class. Brian
