Thanks to a large LARGE tax refund, I’m halfway to my goal. Unfortunately, I do have some large payments coming up for car maintenance, moving expenses, and traveling.
I guess the responsible thing to do would be cutting out my traveling. Maybe there’s a trip here and there that I could cut out…

I’ve recently become interested in learning about leadership. I’ve checked out a book called “Leadership and Self-Deception”. It’s a very good read regarding how we deceive ourselves into thinking others are the cause of our problems. In certain situations, we tend to put blame on others and come up with things that justify why certain people don’t deserve our kindness, help, etc.
It’s a very general description, but I’ve read the book and I feel quite enlightened. It teaches how to handle situations better and, at the same time, create a better relationship with others. I’m even re-reading to make sure I’ve got the principles down.
I think my next read may have something to do with event management or songwriting. My mind is full of things I’d like to learn. Who knows?

At a random moment in time, I decided to download a program on my Android phone called Aldiko, which is an e-Book reader. It is comprised of a library or older books and original books from self-publishers to download for free.
With the books always on my phone, it was easy to start reading when bored. The books I read completely sucked me in. These books were only about 100-150 pages in length though.
I think I’ll considered this goal completed once I read a novel or 2.
