Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking
Being an introvert in an extroverted world is tough. We start in elementary school with the dreaded group projects, and it continues into our workplace as adults. How do we make the world understand that we have something to say…even when we don’t say it? Susan Cain is a self-proclaimed introvert who has made it her mission to help introverts and extroverts learn to understand and respect one another, and how to put their respective gifts to work in our culture and society. “Highly accessible and uplifting for any introvert–and any extrovert who knows an introvert (and over one-third of us are introverts)–Quiet has the potential to revolutionize the “extrovert ideal.” –Malissa Kent
The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing
If you have too much “stuff” (and let’s be honest–most of us have too much “stuff”), then you probably understand the frustration of straightening up over and over again, only to turn around and find that your clutter is back. Clutter is counter-productive, yet most of us simply learn to live with it. Marie Kondo is a Japanese cleaning consultant who is here to help you tame the stuff. Learn to distinguish between things that give you joy and things that don’t, then learn how to remove the things that don’t from your life and your mind. If one of your goals for the new year is to simplify your lift, then this is the place to start. A clean, tidy home and an uncluttered mind are literally at your fingertips.
The Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business
How much of what we do is habit? And is that an excuse to keep doing things the “way we’ve always done them?” Charles Duhigg takes a fascinating look at why we do what we do, and how to introduce positive change into our lives. Duhigg’s premise is that until we understand how habits work we can’t begin to make the changes in our lives that we seek. From the sidelines of the NFL to the corporate boardroom, you’ll gain new insight into the science of habit…and how to make it work for good in your life.
The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You’re Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are
From the time we’re born, the world starts to place it’s expectations on us. Society and the media feed us a steady diet of who we “should be”, how we “should look”, how all the “best people” do things…By the time we reach adulthood we’re exhausted from keeping all of our balls in the air! Brene Brown explores the topic of perfection, and teaches us how we are enough, just the way we are. Learn to engage the world from a position of self-confidence, and learn to be the person that you WANT to be, instead of the person that everyone else THINKS you should be.
The Art of Stillness: Adventures in Going Nowhere
When was the last time you gave yourself permission to be still? To unplug the electronics, turn off the noise of your life and just listen? In our crazy, over-connected world it has never been more essential to unplug and let ourselves be still. Explore the lives of people who have made it their mission to be still, from a man with a PhD in molecular science who left it all to become a Tibetan monk to famed singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen who lived for several years in near silence as a Zen monk. While many people see meditation and stillness as a religious experience, in reality is becoming the cry of a people desperate to rediscover the ancient wisdom of an earlier age–one when the world was a little less crowded.

The first step to the rest of your life is right in front of you…but if you don’t pick up your foot and take it, you’ll never get where you want to be. Author Paul S. Boynton introduces the Law of Attraction–the principle that what we do affects how we think, and kinds of experiences that we have.
