This book details Gilbert’s own experience regarding creative expression and the things that she learned as an author.
2. William H. McRaven – “Make Your Bed”
Are you tired of the constant sugar-coating of life’s struggles? For example, when you open up to someone regarding a certain situation or problem, they’ll usually respond with “it’s going to get better.” Sometimes, you need some straightforward advice, and McRaven is not holding anything back this time around. In “Make Your Bed,” he takes a rather simplistic approach to life. What’s best is, he’s not afraid to tell it how it is.
3. Shira Lenchewski – “The Food Therapist”
If you think that all the stress you are under is not affecting your diet, you are mistaken. Dealing with trust issues, fear, control issues, and constant people-pleasing can not only be mentally draining, but it can also damage your physical health. This is the exact problem that Lenchenwski has highlighted in her book “The Food Therapist,” wherein she talks about facing the root of the problem so that people can have a healthy relationship with food.
It’s a new year and the perfect time for a pick-me-up. Get your hands on these books to re-spark your motivation.
