Hi Everyone,
On Sunday December 2, 2012, I posted a blog titled, Researching Blogs, (here’s the link, http://arebelsrant.com/researching-blogs/.) If you read it, then you would know that I thought the author was an idiot for ranting about a HUGE corporation and a VERY powerful person.
Seconds after the first, what I believe to be an idiot move, my eyes darted to my bookcases. While searching them as I walked, I found the book I was looking for.
When I first read the title in a bookstore I burst out laughing. The person beside moved over a step or two and I got some strange looks. But I didn’t care. Still smiling and chuckling, I opened the book and read random pages. I LOVED the title and the pages did not disappoint. I bought it and read it non-stop.
The title is, People Are Idiots And I Can Prove IT! and the sub-title is, The 10 Ways You Are Sabotaging Yourself And How You Can Overcome Them, by Larry Winget. He has trademarked himself, The Pitbull of Personal Development.
I learned a lot. I saw some of myself and I saw things in the people around me. Because the book wasn’t catalogued I would classify it as business first, motivation second and self-help third. This is why.
Sometimes while listening to business shows, I think, I read that in, People Are Idiots And I Can Prove It! It is an amazing book.
I still burst out laughing every time I see it. It is on my coffee table now and I’m going to read it next.
How is this a rant? Well, a lot people judge a book by its title, cover, location within the store, and the price but they miss out on some really good books. And then there are some people who can read, yet don’t read anything–ever!
Thank you for reading, A. Rebel’s Rant! ;D
