A Life of One's Own
This book was first published back in 1934, when the author (trained as a pyschoanalyst) decided to work out what she really wanted from life. The answer to that is one everybody would like to know. Various methods are explored: keeping a diary; free-association drawing and writing; learning when to stand back and when to go all out for something; and trusting your instincts rather than intellectualizing. The constant analysis does not make for an easy read, but it is worth persevering with this book if it can encourage us to keep trying to make the most of our lives.
