March 4, 2011 Chautauqua

From the Editor's Computer

   I enjoy reading self-help books of all kinds and subjects as I find them to be very entertaining.  I am usually fortunate to find one or two really good quotations that I can use too.

   Despite the many millions of dollars spent on self-help books each year, the books themselves are, for the most part, not helpful at all.  

   Many of the books encourage a person to not do or improve whatever it is that the book is about as most of the books have exercises galore that are nothing more than a means of distracting the reader from accomplishing whatever it is they want to accomplish.

   There is no self-help secret to life - it isn’t a secret because all of us know what it is and we don’t have to read a book to figure it out.

   It is actually doing whatever we need to do...one task at a time...one step at time...one day at a time...over and over and over again.  It’s pretty simple really.
