Everyday Greatness by Stephen R Covey...a Reader's Digest Book
The book Everyday Greatness by Stephen R Covey, was a book compiled of short stories that are supposed to inspire and motivate you to do great things with your life. Each chapter has three stories and a wrap up and reflections by Stephen Covey that gives you things to think about from the stories you've read. There are also quotations from various famous people that have to do with whatever topic you are reading about. Honestly, I wasn't inspired by most of the stories I read. The only story that was really worth reading was The Cellist of Sarajevo, but overall the stories were just very dull. Also, some of the stories really didn't go with the topic that Stephen Covey was presenting like the one about Pope John Paul II. The quotes at the end of each chapter were interesting, but at the same time kind of overwhelming because there were so many of them. I couldn't wait to just be done with the book. I really don't think this is a book worth spending money on.
