Hello, nontraditional students - - here is a book to try, The Artist's Way. I like it a lot.

Hello, Nontraditional Students!

I hope things are going well for you.

It's a new year, and YOU can decide what you want to do in it, and for that matter, for the rest of your life.

My advice (also to myself!) is to get and really read and go through some Positivity books - - you can read them every day. They do help me, when I make time for them..

I have listed the first of a few postings. Below is the first book  I like, that has been helpful to me. You can order a NEW copy if you wish, but also make sure to check out the used book links, and choose a vendor with lots of good feedback. You can save a lot of money that way.

The first book I would like to share with you is:

2.  The Artist's Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity by Julia Cameron:



This way of life (being creative) can be done using this book to help. It has Action Steps, activities, and journaling that you can do to Take Action to be more creative in all areas of your life.

It is NOT just for artists, but it is helpful to them especially.

It's really a great book. And I hope you like it too.

Comment below if you have already discovered this book, and how you use it. I'd love to hear.

Until next time,

I am - - - Nontraditionally Yours,

Your Nontrad Monthly Motivation for December, 2016

Hi to all nontraditional students! (and those who help them.)

This month: People are winding up or getting ready for next semester's work.

Do you have a report to finish? Are you already done with everything? Some have signed up for a course or two for Winter Term.

I hope some of you have time for a real break. It's important to have at least a small break once in awhile to stay motivated. Don't carry on your work for EVERY day of your break...

My advice: TAKE A BREAK - - even if just for 1/2 a day.

And while you are in your comfy chair, or on your hiking trip, (or whatever you are doing) - - take a break from that, (if you can), and come visit the Nontraditional Student FB page:
