Just been to Waterstone Bookshop - I've confessed before I just love the smell of coffee and the cosy atmosphere. Best time I think is early on a Saturday/Sunday especially when it is raining the atmosphere is one to die for.
I realise that I cannot blame anyone if I cannot at least make use of such places to glimpse through different books. In fact I find it more useful to quickly go through a book at the bookshop rather buy one immediately. I have a few books I bought that I have never read.
It is a new month and at work I do alot of data analysis,budgeting, inter-company billings and reconciliations, that requires refreshing data handling techniques. Today I got a nice book by Jon Moon: 'How To Make an Impact' ( Influence, inform and impress with your reports, presentations and business documents)
. I might just buy the book makes good for reference and challenges traditional ways that I have been using - from graphs, to bullet points that don't real make sense to others (though I understand them!).So it was a Sunday afternoon well spent - God must have heard my prayers in today's service. It's already a good week - with all these opportunities to improve whatever skills I need I can only blame myself if I don't myself better.
