Playing Hookey,
It was very exciting to me to realize that I could spend 2% of my time every day on something that is precious to me and not just feel thrilled myself, but be a better mom and more effective at work. Half an hour a day is just the right amount–long enough to get focused and make a little progress, but not so long that I feel guilty. Somehow it feels like playing hookey and I love it!! I’m getting up half an hour early and writing down the amazing stories my grandfather used to tell about growing up in rural Ireland. After that I can face the day more relaxed with a sort of smug feeing inside knowing I’ve already accomplished something that really matters.

|A Real Breath of Hope,
Not only one of the most intelligent and insightful personal improvement books available, Life’s 2% Solution masterfully tackles real life problem areas which other books of this ilk self-righteously avoid. While many self-help books leave one feeling briefly inspired only to hopelessy return to the duldrum of daily life and the ever present feeling that change would be nice but ultimately requires more effort than one is able or willing to give, Marcia Hughes makes no pretense about the possibilities of change.
Her solutions are simple enough for a child to grasp yet valid enough for an expert. The reader can leave this book feeling a new kind of inspiration about life change – not a pipe dream but a real plan that will work as it does not require the reader to completely change everything in their life “cold turkey.” The reader is given litte things they can do each day whose benefit is so obvious they could not be ignored.
While many books appear to be a publisher’s quick answer to a certain niche, Hughes’ book is an act of compassion that was obviously a lifetime in the making. One of the few books available to solve the problem of how to actualize oneself in a world of rigid compliance.
