Memorizing help

This book is a tool for memorizing Psalm 139. Listen in the car, or on the train to work. This Psalm is a hymn to God's omnipresence and omnipotence, and is comforting when you are feeling sad or depressed. Reading Psalm 139 takes away the "alone-ness" feeling you can get when sad, and it reconnects you to the mystery of God. If you can memorize it, that is handier than always having to remember to look it up.

Most of my favorite artists and songs aren't popular, and this book answers why. A lot of a song's success is in the marketing apparently. This book is a behind-the-scenes look at the making of a commercially successful (dare I say hit) song from start to finish. I just wish this author comes out with a follow-up book getting more technical about song composition.

Good for putting on the listen while doing chores, driving etc. instead of listing to the radio with ads. A refresher on God's promises as told in the scriptures. Dwelling on the nature of God for a pick-me-up.

A lot to learn - some tips

There is a lot of information packed in here. Where to even begin? The way I learn about investing is to listen to the audiobook in my free time - driving, dishes, cleaning etc. and instead of taking detailed notes, I buy the print book and go over it with a gel highlighter, the kind made for bibles (no bleed through) IF I like the information and I think I'll attempt it. It's just a few more bucks to learn something new efficiently. That said, with investing, I lean toward books and stay away from online content because it's easier to vet the author and their knowledge, and generally the author provides much more in valuable knowledge in a book versus online content which typically uses upsells and sales tricks. So far, this book has solid information BUT you'll want to check a few things in your area to see what the laws and rules are before proceeding, much of which can be accomplished through Google and a phone call or two.

Curious about men and divorce

Nearly all of the single men my age, where I am, are divorced at least once. It's hard to get a man's perspective on divorce without the anger at his ex or all of womankind. There are issues I hadn't thought of that men face (I have never been married) and now I can be more understanding and empathetic to this rather large group of people. A quick and informative listen.

I've been reading about different diets trying to find one that is doable for me. Atkins has been around for decades, but is a bit restrictive for me. Keto seems more my speed. This book breaks down nutrition content of foods and has recipes. It's comprehensive, probably the only book you'll need for starting a Keto diet.

I've seen too many people sign whatever contract is presented in home buying, as if the contract is itself powerful and the only power you have is a decision to sign it or walk away without that home you’ve already moved into in your imagination. I wanted to get information in my favor and explore if I qualify for lending programs, and learn about other ways to home buying. I’ve been watching YouTube real estate agents for almost a year. After clicking around playlists to piece together what I don’t know in the first place, and being upsold, I found a link to this author. Just get this book, pause, take notes and listen again. Repeat. It will save you money. I’m getting the hard copy so I can also highlight and bookmark instead of having to take notes.

I would not say I am a pushover or people pleaser, but I was raised to be polite and have manners. Some people sorely mistake basic politeness with having no boundaries at all, and will make outrageous requests of my time - babysitting on short notice without pay, working hours on the job "for exposure" without pay, a boor not understanding my kindly turning down a date, and so on. I am only amazed that people are so shocked and amazed when confronted with a healthy, unbothered "no thank you, I can't" without further explanation. It's like I -betrayed- them, lol. This has opened my eyes to wanting to reclaim my time and attention in all areas of my life. This book "Stop People Pleasing and Be Unapologetic" points out things I hadn't maybe thought of, and offers simple tools for if I freeze up (you know, because the request / expectation is so audacious). Good listen, but you'll want to relisten every so often.

Kids still like books

I put on audible books for my niece (4) and nephew (5). Even with their devices, they still like time away from screens and traditional kids books being read to them, as they can't read yet. So when I'm working I pop on an audiobook. This one stresses the importance of patience.

Arranging your environment and habits for success

This has tips on how to arrange your living and workspace so that it supports your and your best habits, for success as you define it. It takes some forethought and maybe decluttering, but it's worth it. I hauled my DB butt and thigh exerciser upstairs into my main living room instead of in the rarely used exercise room where it was. You'll probably find you don't need to spend much money following these tips, you just need to give some thought to previously thoughtless habits.
