The Intellectual Devotional: Revive Your Mind, Complete Your Education, and Roam Confidently with the Cultured Class (Hardcover)
by David Kidder (Author), Noah Oppenheim (Author)

This book gives the reader a glimpse into 364 different nuggets of knowledge. If we want to learn more in depth then it is up to you to pursue it further in other books.
The grouping by subject to day of the week really didn't matter to me. In some ways I would rather have read a more theme based set than jumping back and forth between subject types. For instance, the stories of Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle are on pages 13, 20, and 41, respectively, giving just enough days between them that you wonder if you may have forgotten a bit of relevant information and re-read the previous piece just to be sure. However, this re-reading does help reinforce the information you learned.
Overall the idea to expose yourself to things you may not know about (and may not care) is done well enough to keep it interesting. I think you will enjoy it as much as I do.

It's All Too Much: An Easy Plan for Living a Richer Life with Less Stuff (Hardcover)
by Peter Walsh

 (Author)

First, I must let you know that I am a member of the "Lifelong Accumulator" club. No matter what it was I kept it "just in case." All of that stuff filled our house and garage. I knew I had a problem but just knowing about a problem never seems to help it.
This was the third book I had bought to help me change my habit. It was the only one that has brought about long lasting change.
I know many of the ideas in here are the same ones in other books but that is not the key, the key is in getting you to listen and make changes in yourself. This book did that for me.
It made a game for me to see how much I could get rid of. I had things that hadn't been used in years and probably never would even if I finally "got around to it." My closet is now arranged so that I can actually find what I am looking for. Our bedroom has changed from piles of clutter to one that actually invites peaceful reflection and sleep at the end of the day.
Will this book do that for you? That part I don't know. But if you read it with an open mind and want to make changes, then I believe this will help.
One additional benefit of this book is that now that I know what I have because I can find it, I am buying less of the things I already have. Purchases are now reflected upon before I fork over the money, not after, saving far more than the cost of this book.

This book can be purchased at discount pricing HERE.
