My conservative friends are aghast that I could like anything about Clinton. Everyone hates me. If you looked into his scarily incompentent foreign policies and defense policies, you might like him less. Most self-help books, I think you'll agree, have little value. Many thanks and all the best.
Successful people are far more confident and unafraid of criticism than less successful people.
I am not sure of any connection between physical fitness and success except of course you have to be alive to be successful. In fact that in itself is a success of a large order. The best self-help book by far is The Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous . I don't want to go alone. I am hoping his interest revives soon.
