Advice Not Given: A Guide to Getting Over Yourself"Most people will never find a great psychiatrist or a great Buddhist teacher, but Mark Epstein is both, and the wisdom he imparts in Advice Not Given is an act of generosity and compassion. The book is a tonic for the ailments of our time." Ann Patchett, New York Times bestselling author of Commonwealth Our ego, and its accompanying sense of nagging self doubt as we work to be bigger, better, smarter, and more in control, is one affliction we all

"Most people will never find a great psychiatrist or a great Buddhist teacher, but Mark Epstein is both, and the wisdom he imparts in Advice Not Given is an act of generosity and compassion. The book is a tonic for the ailments of our time."--Ann Patchett, New York Times bestselling author of Commonwealth

Our ego, and its accompanying sense of nagging self-doubt as we work to be bigger, better, smarter, and more in control, is one affliction we all share. But while our ego is at once our biggest obstacle, it can also be our greatest hope. We can be at its mercy or we can learn to work with it. With great insight, and in a deeply personal style, renowned psychiatrist and author Dr. Mark Epstein offers a how-to guide that refuses a quick fix. In Advice Not Given, he reveals how Buddhism and Western psychotherapy, two traditions that developed in entirely different times and places, both identify the ego as the limiting factor in our well-being, and both come to the same conclusion: When we give the ego free rein, we suffer; but when it learns to let go, we are free.

Good extension cord
Color: White, Size: 10FT (2 USB-C)
I have an upside down plug halfway up my wall that was really difficult to use and this is really been a game changer. It's flat against my wall so I'm not going to hit the cord and it it's long enough to put it in a more usable spot in the spare bedroom. The USB ports come in handy so I can keep the outlets free for my TV, lamps etc.

Nice oak corner shelf but check your measurements first
5 stars for the shelf, 3 stars for myself :-) This is a well-made oak corner shelf that looks great where I put it. The wood is nice quality and the construction is solid. Before you order though, do yourself a favor and check two things: 1) Make sure the size is actually big enough for what you need, and 2) Check that your corner is actually a true 90-degree angle. Turns out mine isn't perfectly square and now I'm trying to figure out how to position this thing properly. Good product overall, just wish I'd measured more carefully before ordering.

i’ve been wanting this shelf for quite some time and finally decided I’m doing it. I’m absolutely completely satisfied with the size the quality of the wood and the paint job. It’s made very well. I have to say I was surprised at how nicely sanded it was and ready to hang.
