Stretch Up and Reach for the Stars....

Adryan, thanks for sharing this with me... :)

This is an interesting, inspiring quote Adryan got from a book titled, "Twelve Pillars to be Successful" by Jim Rohn and Chris Widener.

"1st Pillar - Personal Development. The only way things are going to change for you is when you change. Work harder on (improving) yourself than you do on your job. Read books, attend seminars, study the best and successful people, apply and implement what you learn. A tree will grow as tall as it can. Man can choose to be all or choose to be less. Why not stretch up to the full measure of all the challenge and see all you can do?"

First of all, HAPPY WORLD BOOK DAY EVERYONE!! :) Let's spread the joy of reading, not only today, but every other day by sharing great reads with your friends and family, also, if you have too many on your shelves, give them to those in need...I came across this on guardian.co.uk and thought that I'd share it with you... "With or without TV debates, most thoughts at present in the UK are turning to the choice we will make in the forthcoming general election. However, the stark fact is that very many people in the UK will not be a part of that process; not because they don't want to necessarily, but because they lack the most basic skills to do so. They can't read. They cannot make a choice. It is a truly terrible democratic deficit." (More...) The thought of parting with your favourite books can be painful. To be honest, I had problems giving mine away. But just thinking of the impact it can make on a person's life helped the 'parting' a whole lot...

Dear bookaholics, If you were wondering why this bookaholic is no longer putting up her usual book reviews and interesting bookish finds, and only updates her blog with events, well, it's because I'm very tied up with something else right now. However, it'll end very soon...and my book reviews will be up again in July :) I'm looking forward to it as I REALLY REALLY MISS READING!!!! If you have found any good reads recently, please feel free to post your recommendations here or drop me an email :) Till then, keep reading!! (image from google images)
