Think and Grow Rich - by Napoleon Hill

, , , ,
This was a most amazing book. Andrew Carnie, of steel manufacturing fame, charged Napoleon Hill with writing this book. It was written in 1937, took 28 years to complete the research, and was the summary (I guess that's a good word) of the…

Happiness for Dummies: Hardiness (Chapter 6)

, , , , ,
I do marvel that Happiness for Dummies is not a "dummies" book, that it does have valid content that makes you think! Dr. Gentry described hardy personality in Chapter 6 of Happiness for Dummies-- people who are resilient, who are survivors.…

Happiness for Dummies: Knowing What Happiness Isn't

I started reading The Power of Now yesterday.  I'm only up to page 14, and have seen some promise in this book as part of my journey of discovery.  Bare with me -- I have to ramble on a bit to explain things, and I'll get back to the reason…

Could Demi Moore Have Benefitted from www.timetoplay.com?

, , , , , ,
So, yesterday my husband was talking to someone who described what they thought www.timetoplay.com was.  She said she thought it was a networking site.  You know, that description does kind of describe it.  For anyone reading this, did…

Time for US to Make Things Change

, , , ,
How can we make things change? How many times can we think that someone is going to fix everything for us?  Do we really think a new president will fix it?  The current one will fix it?  "The government will make new jobs".  "If we wait…
