For some reason, I feel that it’s my (new) ‘thing’ to cash in my iPoints for self-help-type books – well, The Four Day Win, and now this.

It’s a title I stumbled upon somewhat randomly on Amazon – a recommendation based on something else I was looking at, I think. It has seven 5-star reviews, I believe, and no negatives. So when it came time to cash in those points, this joined the possibilities, along with Michael Neill’s You Can Have What You Want, Paul McKenna’s Change Your Life in Seven Days, and Mind Gym’s Give Me Time (incidently, I’m going to a Mind Gym presentation on Monday – woooo!).

So why this one? I was just back from a blissfully contented weekend break – and pushing myself to be productive seemed a lot less appealing than holding on to and recapturing those happy feelings from the break. If I can feel like that far more often, I can see me getting things done anyway :)

That, and the huge smily sunflower on the front. Far more appealing than Michael Neill’s face on his happiness book, imo!

Of course, one shouldn’t judge on the cover. I’ll report back on how I get on with the book, naturally, but in the meantime you can join me in the first step as the initial questionnaire is on the website. Apparently I’m neither happy nor unhappy in most of the areas, which – blah as it sounds – does rather sum up how i feel. The one unhappiness is ‘sense of purpose’ – I am so in the middle of everything, that the drifting sensation is there. Give it a go!
