The great thing about Daniel Pink’s books (including The Power of Regret) is that he tells so many stories. It’s still not quite as entertaining as a novel though. 🙂

Beautiful thoughts about compassion towards oneself. It must be the foundation, the cornerstone.

The novel closed with a quote from probably my Favourite Poem Of All Time: Ulysses by Tennyson. Wild

I really did enjoy all 6 of these books so I’m glad they appeal to you as well, April! There’s just never enough time to read all the ones I want to read though.

Yes, I’m already doing several of those “older” things now, too. Maybe if the shoe fits, I should just claim it? lol. Undistracted is good so far, but I’m not very deep into it yet. Bob Goff has a way of reeling me in with a cute story, and then wham! hitting me over the head with a deep insight. Hope you get your copy soon.

Thanks, Emma. Hope you’ll find more time to read in May than you did in April. So far, so good for me. 🙂

Reading several books at once is my favorite way to read too, Mary. But yes, like you, I can get into too many heavy books at one time, too. I have to intentionally add in a lighter one to balance things out. That light novel for me right now is “The Rosie Project.” It reminds me of an Australian Sheldon Cooper (if you’re familiar with The Big Bang Theory). 🙂

I have “I Guess I Haven’t Learned That Yet” on hold at my library and am so excited to read it! It came highly recommended to me. Your other books sound very interesting to me as well.

I always check my library first too! I borrowed Self-Compassion from Hoopla, the old age book from Kindle Unlimited, and Daniel Pink’s book I got free for review. Free for the win. 🙂

You made me laugh, Mark, because it might be too late for me, too. 🙂 And also too late on some of the other things (such as, “I won’t be ordering the early bird special” – I’d eat early every day if I could, lol).

Yes, The Power of Regret was very intriguing in seeing the research of how people handle regrets (some poorly, some wisely). The book leaned toward helping us find the positive impacts, of course, but also pointed out the other side as well.
