Today we are going to read a chapter of this book, You are Awesome by Matthew Syed. Read the front cover and the blurb. Books like these are often a handy tool in helping us to grow and work towards achieving your goals.
I am sure there will be a connection to the idea we learnt about last week, that failures are famous for helping us to improve. I think you will enjoy the style of writing that the author uses. |
