Reading has always been my favourite way to spend an afternoon or make a long journey fly by! Books go with me everywhere along with a journal and a sketchbook. A Kobo arrived under the Christmas tree in recent years and we are now inseparable -- I embrace new technology when it may save me a pound or two of space in the backpack, but I still have such nostalgia for the beautiful feel of a well-made hard cover book; And, although I may lend my favourites to a friend or three from time to time, I am relieved when they return from their travels. With each adventure they may be a little more worn or have been gifted the occasional coffee ring, but it does not diminish their value and always comes with a friend’s story from the trail and some pearls of wisdom, and sometimes a new title to read in exchange.
Who is your favourite author? Do tell.... and lead us to an afternoon filled with a quiet browse through a beautiful coffee table art collection, to the backseat as a captivated onlooker in a spellbinding adventure or as a convert to the life altering wisdom available to us from the leaders, innovators and critical thinkers of our time. We want to know how they do it! We are motivated to test their theories!
As a student in Business Communications at Sheridan College this year, I have been reacquainted with the writings of well-known business leader and presenter, Peter Urs Bender. I have a plan for an afternoon soon with my new purchase - Gutfeeling: Instinct and Spirituality at Work. Mr. Bender is the author and co-author of other books in this genre which have guided college students and business leaders alike to look at themselves and their potential in a whole new way to achieve success. I will share what I find... soon....a new book beckons!
