The Curious Autodidact

This is a little book, One Small Step Can Change Your Life by Robert Maurer, PhD but that doesn’t mean it is easily forgotten. It is about the Kaizen way but written for Westerners and accessible for a wide audience.  I have given it to people of all ages including a recent college grad who told me he read it and then turned it over and reread it right away to see what he might have missed.

The theory is that we must achieve large changes by starting with the smallest steps and learning to grow using this method which is simple but for some quite hard too. Kaizen is about small incremental improvement. This is a great guide book to increasing your effectiveness and outlook on daunting tasks that you can simplify into manageable steps. This  books makes a stunning graduation gift that will have very practical applications.
