My daughter got me a book for fathers day A Field Guide to Identification Effin' Birds. It is a good bathroom book.
Sorry to hear. Take advantage of the change and the chance to reboot your life. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I found that book insightful. Don't forget the companion book, "Do the Work". Also, my divorce lit a fire under me 3 and a half years ago that never went out. Quit drinking and lifted 3 to 4 times a week. Transformed my life in nothing but great ways. I'm in the best place mentally, physically and spiritually I've ever been. From one USAF vet to another, welcome to the forum and the grind.
“Don Quixote”. By Cervantes I wanted to quit on this book many times. It wasn’t good. It had a few parts that made it bearable but overall I did not enjoy and would not recommend. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I read books in school that would make good toilet paper. Just finished: George Masa, A Life Reimagined by Janet McCue and Paul Bonesteel. Masa was a Japanese who came to the US in the early 20th century. Much of his life was a great mystery. He fell in love with western North Carolina. He forged a great friendship with Horace Kephart. Both were instrumental in the formation of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Kephart with his experiences in the Smokies and Masa's photographs. Getting ready: Witness To Gettysburg by Richard Wheeler.
Just finished The Rise of Superman: Decoding the Science of Ultimate Human Performance. A great read into the science of stories of Extreme Sports athletes and how they perform in life or death scenarios. A little heavy science terminology for someone that does not have an academic/professional back in human biology/sports performance science but still a good read.
I’ve read a couple of Steven Kolters books. Good stuff for sure. Who doesn’t love getting into a flow state. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
In addition to the rise of Superman, the art of impossible, and Gnar country come to mind. Might be one other? I’m blanking on the name at the moment. It’s about endurance and perceived exertion etc. might be a different author?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I'm still consuming literary junk in the form of Dungeon Crawler Carl, Book 3. I should finish it up tonight or tomorrow and I'm going to move into something a little more helpful and inspiring. This is the equivalent of reading junk food - it's fun to read, but it's probably rotting my brain.
The Demon of Unrest by Erik Larson. It was really good, I didn’t want it to stop. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
1984 George Orwell Good one. I couldn’t remember if I read it in high school or not so I figured I’d give it a go. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The mountain is you -good read. I been trying to be a better version of myself and get back into a better and more balanced mindset.
Got this one on my desk for reading at beddy-bye time- Five Families by Selwyn Raab. Detailed history of organized crime in the US.
The practice of groundedness by Brad Stulberg. Pretty decent. Not much new stuff for me but I passed it on to my daughter. I’ve been listening to Johnny Cash reading the New Testament. Good stuff. He has a great voice for it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I had a great conversation with my grandson about this book. Very enlightening to see the young man's point of view on it.
