These are a selection of the books I’ve read over time – actually, I acquired the list from my local library but could only obtain the last 6 months or so records. I’m still trying to dig a little deeper to include more, so watch this space.

Reaching For The Stars –
one of the quick reads for the library as I didn’t feel up to reading a real book that week! I just love this extract from chapter 8 about making mistakes and accepting it…
Lots of times, they’re not even mistakes! Your previous actions weren’t achieving what you wanted so you went a different route that didn’t turn out according to plan. That’s not a mistake. We’ll call it exploration and discovery.
I think that is a lovely passage to read whenever you’ve just put your foot in it again or made yet another faux pas – definitely one for the study wall when I need encouragement ( or forgiveness ).

Character A – Cheerleader, you scored 39
Character B – Carer, you scored 45
Character C – Commander, you scored 37
Character D – Thinker, you scored 35

And, oh joy! – this has yet another of those quizzes mentioned above -
My scores were thus:
Openness 11, Conscientiousness 13, Extroversion 9, Agreeableness 8, Neuroticism 4.
That means I’m the absolute antithesis of my self image –
ahhh well, it could have been much worse…
Let me know if there are any you think I should read and include by leaving a comment.
Thank you.
