Forget Your Troubles....

There are so many books out there on how to live. Not just survive but how to live well, and how to be happy. It's nuts. Like anyone knows! You just get up each day and hope for the best. Or if you're lucky and blessed with good health and have no addictions to hold you back, weigh you down or sap your strength, you do more than hope: You strive, or in some extraordinary cases, accomplish.

But, after wading through many of them I'm convinced that reading those books is just a waste of time. After all, who knows better than you what's required for you to feel happy? So write your own book and then follow the author's instructions.
