Manipulation

Anyone have any reading suggestions for the Manipulator who wants to stop? I find plenty of reading for how to sell stuff or how to quit being manipulated, but nothing for the newly-aware Manipulator.

Thanks,

Nezzy

Stumbling on Happiness

Has anyone read Stumbling on Happiness by Daniel Gilbert? I'm not sure whether what he says makes sense because it's sound or because I hear what I want to hear.

The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry

I picked this book up off one of those "take one, leave one" shelves when I was TDY last week. I found it to be profoundly moving. It is the story of a man who's been retired for all of 6 months. He gets a letter from someone he hasn't heard from in 20 years. He decides to walk to her hospice. During the walk, he reflects on his life, his wife, his parents, his career, his son, all the things that one might think about when looking back over one's life. I was especially moved by the state of his marriage and how it got to be the way it was and how it changed from the beginning of the story to the end. NOTE: No infidelity was committed in the plot of this novel. Did anyone else read it? In my college days I was an English lit major and sometimes I miss the deeper conversations about stories.

Europe G2G?

So WOES thread prompted me to ask... How many of us in Europe would be interested in a G2G? I'm not making any promises or offering any coordination, just throwing the question out there.
