The Book Review, Sunday, March 18, 2012: You Can't Afford the Luxury of a Negative Thought

Yep, that's a very long title for a very long book, and one that Madame L has been enjoying for years now. 

It's the kind of book you can pick up any time you need a lift. In fact, it's the kind of book you don't want to read straight through, because you'll be overwhelmed with amazing nuggets of wisdom about how to get happy, how to stay happy, and why it's so important for your health that you do so.

Madame L has an old hardcover edition of the book, but it's available now in paperback on Amazon.com  for $7.95, and Madame L believes it's worth that and more.

From the blurb about the author on the back cover of "You Can't Afford the Luxury of a Negative Thought": "Peter McWilliams published his first book...at the age of seventeen...He is a nationally syndicated columnist, teaches seminars, and has appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show, Donahue, Larry King, and The Today Show. He hates bar codes and realizes his bio could have been longer if the designer didn't have to make room for one on this book."

So he has a sense of humor, too. This book is not your typical self-help book. It's not just for healthy people and not just for sick people. It's for everyone. Enjoy!

Madame L's consort reports that this book has been read to him at the oddest moments, and each time made him feel a whole lot better than 10 minutes earlier...
