Don't Sweat The Small Stuff With Your Family by Richard Carlson

I have been reading this book for 2-3 months already. As it is a made up of short articles of tips on how to have a peaceful and meaningful family life. Besides the Chicken Soup series, I feel that this is the superbly written and it has been beneficial to me. I am sure I will be reading this book again in the future.

There are 100 articles altogether. Some very interesting articles include listening to people, taking time to relax, keeping promises, never taking family for granted and even appreciating your in-laws. I am sure that most of us feel that all these topics are simple and "Of course I know!", but give it a try and you will find that it takes a lot of discipline and mind power to accomplish these actions.

The book is a very easy read with only 2-3 pages for each article. I will be looking out for his other Don't Sweat The Small Stuff series.
