Education Provides the Evolution of Mind
Because I’ve been interested in improving the quality of my life for almost 30 years, I have read a multitude of books. Many of those didn’t interest me, didn’t ring true or even seem to provide anything I could believe in… I thought they were baloney! Those books have gone to the second hand shops for someone else to try. The list of books below are sitting on my bookshelf today and within each one I either found something of interest, or resonated with it wholly.
