I am finding it increasingly disturbing that we are using everything from toasters to televisions that we cannot repair or create ourselves. Our society seems to create interdependence on systems from utilities to medical care and many things in between. I spend more time working to pay for the services I receive than actually learning how to do things for myself (or learning how to do WITHOUT things that require maintenance, replacements, etc.)
Why do we watch television? It is, at the heart of things, designed to provoke needs and wants — to create dissatisfaction with who we are or what we have – T or F?
Why is it impossible to find routes to work that don’t require driving?
Why must we put oursevles further into debt to become more educated in a way that employers recognize?
Why do we worship convenience and become impatient with human speed?
Why must things be faster, brighter, louder, bigger to fulfill our needs for ‘new’ things?
Help me understand, people

I think that one of the greatest accomplishments that can take place in our life is when we overcome habits, faults, or misguided thinking to achieve a better quality of life. Have you made any changes? Please share.
If you could single out just 5 books you’ve read that are responsible for *helping* you achieve at least 80% of what you want in life…what would they be?
My favorite, and still one, is Scott Peck who wrote "The Road Less Traveled" series. Then, a few years ago I was given an audio series CD by a new to me guy, and I think he is phenomenal. Then, I bought some of his books and they are incredible as well. What favorite is yours ??

by help i mean to understand the ourself, others, kids, etc for better life.
for example, my friend used to be anxious and depressed, since i did not know about it, i used to think him as a weird person. If i knew him, i could have behaved more nicely to him.

I love to hear your insight on the book
I just finished reading it
I have my own opinions about this fundamental question, but I would love to hear from people all around, commenting on this.
