Happiness Project
The Happiness Project is a book I started reading a while ago, I guess you might call it a self-help book. I call it a 'book I found in a book exchange that looked interesting when I was desperate for reading material'. Sorry it's not more significant Gretchen Rubin!
The first couple of 'months' were easy to get through, but then it started to drag. We're so VERY different, her and I. I am already 'chasing my dreams', but my dreams are far, far different from those of a 40+ year old woman with 2 children who used to be a lawyer and is now a writer. In New York of all places. (sounds a smidge cliche).
And I'm a 30 year old trying to be a professional bike instructor/guide living in a converted van in small ski town in Canada.
She's made some good points though, and you should all be happy because, despite her busy lifestyle, she finds time to blog every day. Now, I've not actually bothered looking for her blog, but the fact she can fit it in is what prompted me to start up again and so without her, I'd not be writing these blogs.
Now if you ever DO read this Gretchen, I'll finish the book soon, but I'm sure you'd understand why it's a struggle for me to do so. In the same way my struggles in life are so hugely different from your own...
