The other goal

Filed under: Banter, Goals and Aspirations — Padraig @ 7:43 pm

I remembered what the other goal I had was. I want to read 6 or more books a year. Not too big a goal for most, but with my terrible history of reading, one book every two months is a pretty good target to hit. Currently I’m reading Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut. Not his best work for sure, but entertaining to some degree. His writing style is amusing.

Not sure what will be next… A Storm of Swords by George R. R. Martin? Maybe. Or one of the self help books my brother Jim suggested: The Prophet, The Four Agreements, The Way of the Peaceful Warrior, and No Death, No Fear. We’ll see. I’ve also got to read The Contrarians Guide to Leadership which is a bit of reading I’m doing with work. We (the support center leads) are reading a chapter and chatting about it each week.

Doesn’t quite fit into the goal of reading entire books, but also on the list is to read some short stories written by Casey in years past.
