Win these!
This page has contests you can enter but all are in the U.S. There are coupons on this page also but those are also U.S. only. Come on!! I want to play too!!I did in the spirit of it go to Chapters. I had two gift certificates (that's like coupons) and bought three books. There was an on line survey form with a chance to win $1000.00 I filled it out. Didn't win :(
This is the book I went for and am in the process of reading:
Blink The Power of Thinking Without Thinking
by Malcolm Gladwell.
I am simplifying it when I say it is about decision making processes and results based on gut reactions, intuition, and studies and stories about people who follow it.
I have been struggling with the fact that I seem to trust my intuition a lot when it comes to jobs, large purchases, houses, business decisions, etc. I am an artist I believe that working intuitively is a real asset. I of course use my knowledge, skills and thinking too. However some of the greatest results come from just going for it. I can confidentially say that trusting gut reactions has generally given positive results in many areas of my life.
When it comes to personal matters I am more self doubting and use what I presume is more logic and thinking, and only later do I realise that if I would have gone with my intuition (initial gut reaction) I would not have had so many problems.
So I decided to do some reading and this book came up when I googled following your instincts.
I will comment further when I have finished reading the book. Which won't be long!! My intuition says "Go for it!" :)
