Active Rain's ...So What Are You (MeMe) Reading Now?

By
Real Estate Agent

I know some people dread them...but I love Meme's!  I feel honoured that someone would want to know what I think about anything!   I was just thinking that I should do a 'meme' that asks for each person's favorite 5 books!  So although this one has a different twist.....it has a curious way of peaking one's interest though -

So thank you to Deb, and the Two Charlies and Kelly for Tagging me!

  Deb Brooks and Nuttin' Honey.

Charles Buell's Is there a cure for "Bookworm MeMe's?"

Charlie Harden's  The Four Words that are the key to a Happy Marriage. Read on!

Kelly Kilpatrick - New & Improved Guidelines for California Landlord's - Stay Out of Court...or at least win!  

 

So this is the Read Tease... 

1. Grab the nearest book.

2. Open the book to page 56.

3. Find the fifth sentence.

4. Post the text of the next two to five sentences.

5. Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book or the intellectual one. Pick the CLOSEST.

6. Tag five people to do the same

*The one book that this cannot be is the Bible*

 

I have been reading Gary Keller's The Millionaire Real Estate Agent -   but I've seen it already in a couple of Meme's.....hmm...now isn't that a surprise? :-) 

 

 

 

 

But the Books that are next to my bedside are a Trilogy that I got for my Birthday...

A series of 3 books by Don Miguel Ruiz...Based on Ancient Toltec Wisdom..a powerful code of  conduct that can rapidly transform our lives...

~~~~~~~~~~

1.) The Four Agreements - Reveals the source of self-limiting beliefs that rob us of joy and create needless suffering...

..."The 'mitote' is the reason humans hardly know what they want, how they want it, or when they want it.  They don't agree with themselves because there are parts of the mind that want one thing, and there are parts that want exactly the opposite thing"...

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

2.) The Mastery of Love - This book illuminates the fear-based beliefs and assumptions that undermine love and lead to suffering and drama in our relationships!

..." You have no idea what is inside her mind.."...... 

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

3.) The Voice of Knowledge - Looking for a guide to inner peace?  The key is to stop believing in lies.......mostly about ourselves!

"I reviewed the story of my life, AND I didn't like all the Drama that I had created.  I wanted to reinvent myself!

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

So here we go guys!  I'd LOVE to know what You're Reading! :-) I've tagged Five,...but I'd love to read anybody who'd like to share!

2.) Amber Gardner

3.) Scott Leaf

The goal is to eventually have a standing room only bus and since this is an engergy bus it is always expanding so you'll always be able to add more people.  Now that you know this, George, it's important that you ask your team to get on your bus or else you'll be driving the product launch by yourself and you can't do this one alone.  You need your team to make this work.

 

Looks like I'm not one of your five, but maybe the first to comment.

 

The book, "The Energy Bus" by Jon Gordon

 

It is a great book and I've already read his second book "The No Complaing Rule"

Thanks, Liz!  Just a quick glance at my coffeetable (which is where I am) shows NO books of mine.  However, there is Sir Fartsalot which belongs to my 8 year old.  I went to page 56 and it actually wasn't that bad!  Anyhow, you'll get mine later today and no, I won't go searching for a book - I'll grab the one on my nightstand.

Hi Liz - I loved the Four Agreements and it was given to me for one of my birthday's too.  It's funny I have always been someone that fights with myself  trying to figure out what I want and often I realize if I just stop fighting it - it will come. :) ~Anne Marie

hmmmm.... I've read the four agreements (love it) and mastery of love (it too)... I'm going to have to check out the voice of knowledge. In this exercise, I thought of you... If you go to page 56 of Forrest Gump and look at line five you see this: "Lo an behole, it were Bubba." (the paperback)
