Concerns about the inequality of being an independent woman. |
| Dale Carnegie had a point. I remember buying,'How to Stop Worrying and Start Living' for 7/6p old money. Now I am starting to wish I had read it! The last 40 years may have taken a very different turn. I might not have stayed awake all last night worrying about things I can do nothing about. I might not have agonised about other peoples feelings, and concentrated a little more on my own. 'Prioritised and logically examined situations and turned my lemon into a lemonade more. 'Anticipated the worst case scenario and calcualted how to improve on the situation. 'Accepted the facts and having drawn a line, moved on. So why don't I do these things? Because I care too much! If I could lance the 'caring' bit, I might not have bled so profusely. I have the knife, the skill, the awareness and the will, but still let things fester. So, maybe some words of wisdon did permeate through, in an undetectable way, like osmosis. Maybe I just decided I didn't want to allow a book to alter the real me. So it 'goodbye' to ole' Carnegie and, hang on a minute! What's this I see? Move over Dale and make way for Steve Covey. Phew! For a minute I thought I was on my own! Playbacker |
