Grab your current read.
Let the book fall open to a random page.
Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
Please avoid spoilers!
During those dark, endless hours, as lists flew through my mind and my heart pounded, I sometimes thought about what would have happened to me if I hadn’t had to fight so hard to carve out my own identity, one that would keep me from fading into a shadow when my twin sister was around. Would I be this driven, this fixated on success, if I’d been born into another family?

Interesting teaser — my two oldest brothers are twins, but there’s no competitiveness between them at all. They’re closer than closer, and they’re nearly 60!
My teaser is from The Objective is Happiness by Thomas Wakefield. Learn how to take failure and turn it into success, by understanding the process of both. This book help makes all other types of self help make sense! And if you can’t wait, and you have a Kindle or Nook or ereader, you can get the ebook right away. (Instant gratification — gotta love it.)
From page 56, on how to get results:
“Invisible forces in your partnership will create coincidences. You might meet a person, something will show up, all manner of coincidence and things that seem like miracles will happen around and near you. Again, pay attention. Some things will be obvious while some others will be subtle.” (I love the idea that you have to pay attention not just to the obvious, but to the subtle, things that seemed small but are not.) Happy reading everyone!
