| | Don't Sweat the Small Stuff ... and It's All Small Stuff by Richard Carlson This is the kind of book where the title says it all yet only after reading it, you'll truly internalize its message. When Don't Sweat the Small Stuff was first released in 1997, Carlson's book became such a smash hit, it spawned an entire series of books that has now sold over 25 million copies. Sadly, Carlson died in 2006 at only 45 years old — but he did leave the world with an amazing message. If you want to be less stressed, learn to live and let live, and remember that life isn't an emergency, read this summary. |
