Amazon.com Review:
This single audiocassette version of yet another bestsellerabout caring for the soul is the Zeitgeist in a nutshell. The author'ssoftly spoken message, aimed at people who feel that their lives havebecome overwhelmed by trivial demands and the shadow of stress, is aseries of practical, homely tips on how to regain both perspective andcontrol. The key is to remember--or rather, to learn to bear inmind--some simple truths that we already know. As Carlson observes,'when you die, your in-box won't be empty,' so you should stress lessabout emptying it now. And a century from now we'll all be dead andgone--so things that seem blisteringly urgent now are really trivial,and will soon be forgotten. Carlson is particularly good on theimportance of controlling self-pity, especially the sense that we arethe ones doing all the hard work, which can be so damaging to ourrelationships with others.
Two kinds of people might bedisappointed by this tape. Those who have already thought deeply aboutthese issues are likely to be underwhelmed by advice such as 'changewhat can be changed, and learn to accept what can't be changed.' Andthose who expect a single cassette to transform their lives will find,not surprisingly, that Carlson is much better at saying what we shoulddo than at explaining how we can do it. But he reads well, and forovertaxed people who don't expect a miracle cure, the message on thistape could be a small first step to a saner life. (Running time: 90minutes, one cassette) --Richard Farr

This book has brief every day narrations of every day life situations and gives you advice to stay calm or take the best out of the situation.
