One Minute For Yourself - A Simple Strategy For a Better Life by Spencer Johnson

"One Minute For Yourself: A Simple Strategy For A Better Life" by Spencer Johnson will take more than a minute to read, but not much more, and it is time well spent. It is a short book of just over 100 pages, and a number of those pages only contain a quote. So yes, it is quite simple to read and won't take you long at all. However, the message Johnson shares in this little story is a very good one, and for those that act upon it, you will most likely notice the benefits from doing so.The book was originally published in the 80s as "One Minute For Myself." In the 90s, it was released as "One Minute For Yourself." Now, nearly 20 years after the second edition was released and over 25 years since the original, this little book's message is still as relevant as it ever was. I know I enjoyed reading it, and it made me think about the times I forget to take care of myself and how that effects others around me.The book is written in story format and it is about a man who goes to le
arn the secret to happiness from his uncle, a man who seemed to enjoy everything. Through conversations with his uncle and a few others, the man learns the importance of taking care of yourself so you can then be a better person and take care of others.There are four parts of the lesson. Taking Care of Me, Taking Care of Thee, Taking Care of We, and The World Benefits. For the three most important lessons Taking Care of Me, Thee, and We, there are summary pages at the end of those chapters. These are nice to review the lessons contained in the story.If you have a little time, reading "One Minute For Yourself" is a good use of it. Especially if it makes you stop and think, and then implement some "self" time into your life to reduce stress and enjoy living a bit more. Do this for yourself, and then share with others and maybe the last chapter is right, the world will benefit.
