Another Book

So, yes... I do read a lot of books! Usually, I have four on the go at any one time... Today, I'm reading a book that I saw in the SK airport entitled Happiness at Work by Srikumar S. Rao. (It's a library book too... although I might want to buy this one!)... It is VERY good!!

He starts off by talking about how we assign labels to everything that happens in life... some things are "good"... some things are "bad"... It is these judgements that get us stuck!! He talks about story... the drama that we create about things... the emotions that we create around events... He talks about the internal conversations we have in our heads... It's a very readable book... not at all like the End Procrastination Now book (yawn)... The chapters in this book are short, have inspiring stories... and the author is very direct and to the point. He doesn't beat around the bushes and he uses very down to earth language... I'm only half way through... so... you'll have to wait and see how it turns out.

He does give exercises at the end of each chapters (short exercises)... Exercises that are designed to get you take a good look at what you do... or don't do... and how that gets in your way... Read the book!
