I'm Reading AGAIN

I have so much to learn and so little time...The 2 books I have chosen for this new month are:
1)Love and Respect (The love she most desires/The respect he desperately needs)by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs
and
2)Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill
--------------------------
I have never read Love and Respect but it comes highly recommended by my business coaches. I love learning how to better all of my relationships... and this would be the one that is most important to me next to my relationship to my Heavenly Father.
Here is the Message: A wife has one driving need - to feel loved. When that need is met, she is happy. A husband has one driving need - to feel respected. When that need is met, he is happy. When either of these needs isn't met, things get crazy. Love and Respect reveals why spouses react negatively to each other, and how they can deal with such conflict quickly, easily and biblically. Based on over 3 decades of counseling, as well as scientific and biblical research, Dr Eggerichs and his wife have already taken the LOVE AND RESPECT message across America and are changing the way couples talk to, think about, and treat each other. What do you want for your marriage? want some peace? want to feel close? want to feel valued? want to experience marriage the way God intended? Then why not try some LOVE AND RESPECT.
-----------------------------
I have read Think and Grow Rich... Napoleon Hill has written several mind boggling books that speak the truth. It is amazing what our minds can comprehend and achieve. Because I own a business that to be successful you help others succeed... I am definitly interested in learning everything I can to make that so. THINK AND GROW RICH represents the distilled wisdom of distinguished men of great wealth and achievement. Andrew Carnegie's magic formula for success was the direct inspiration for this book. Carnegie demonstrated its soundness when his coaching brought fortunes to those young men to whom he had disclosed his secret. This book shows you what to do and how to do it. If you learn and apply the simple basic techniques revealed here, you will have mastered the secret of true and lasting success.
