CaliGuy......any specific suggestions?

ps....love your quote "If someone wants out of your life and walks away from you, let them walk! There is no greater waste of one's time than chasing someone who doesn't want to be with you... ?

Two books that helped me a lot:

The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People (Stephen R Covey)
The Art of Happiness (HH The Dalai Lama)

Meh, I'd have to go home and look at the books I bought. Usually I buy the highest customer rated books. You just need to search Amazon or whatever and review the recommendations before buying.

Thanks on the quote. Words to live by

On Amazon it receives 4 stars with 1,012 customer reviews. I have read it... very deep and very helpful with my anxiety and stress.
